I'm with you. #TeamShit -
Only time I've watched Milan, Borini came on from the bench and played RWB or some shit. Very odd. They had some other PL reject upfront as well IIRC.

3! And one was because of a duplicated surname -
No. They have another keeper, he was never going to be the starter unless Ryan got hurt. Did it strengthen us?

Nowt for Craig Dawson?

It's just a computer generated version of what they've been told the kit looks like, I wouldn't pay attention to smaller details.
-
Aye I'd be paying out the japs eye if the no-sponsor version pops up. I think it might be hopeful though, given it's not a new sponsor this time around.

if thats even vaguely correct im buying ten of them, 2 in each size just in case of massive weight-loss/gain throughout my life.

and I'm fine with that. In rafa etc. ...I just can't accept that Joselu is actually better at anything other than being Spanish.

Is a stadium really a great asset? The land, sure, but you don't see too many stadiums getting bought/re-used/fixed up. They tend to just get knocked down. Again, lots of big question marks over the numbers, but my feeling would be that the FA could take that money and use it for actual football stuff rather than just owning a building. Unless it's wildly profitable ofc. But I doubt that.

Are stadiums ever profitable? They needed a stadium. They have a stadium. Now they have the option of have stadium + ticket sale profits, or use stadium + no(?) ticket sale profits. The relevant part is not how much it cost to build, but how much they expect to make from sales. They also earn a substantial amount by letting the NFL, boxing, concerts etc. take place there. Aye. I've just got nee idea what those numbers look like in comparison to selling the stadium & not having to concentrate on being a landlord.

This would be the greatest question mark for me. But I feel like people have grown some level of affinity for Jacksonville given their frequent visits. And given they're not so shit anymore. I imagine the affinity will only grow over time.

The jags made the playoffs last year and look like they have a good chance of not being shit for a few years.

The one thing I know about the NFL, is that the owners don't give a single fuck about the fans, most teams change location every 10/20 years or so. The owners even get given the trophy. It'd be like us winning the FA Cup and instead of Lascelles going up for collect the it, Ashley goes up and get the cup. Well that’s patently false I imagine we're going to get lots of interestingly erroneous statements during this discussion...

They play 3 games per year and it's worked so far. A London franchise would move it to 8 games per year. It's not like the football where they'd play 18 games over 3/4 of the year. Perfectly attainable iyam. They would likely just be based on the East coast of the US and just travel over for games. Also, I don't think the notion of selling Wembley is a bad one. Under the assumption that England get to continue to use it, what's the issue? They get a shit ton of money that they otherwise wouldn't have. They built it because they (believe they) needed a fancy national stadium. That still applies. The ownership is irrelevant.

Joselu is s***, but he will probably follow instructions where Mitro won't. Rafa is quite tough on that, he had the same issue with Mbemba. From a fan's POV it is frustrating, but we've had managers who didn't know their own minds before and it hasn't gone well for us. If we want to see Mitro playing for Rafa, he'll have to convince the manager he can toe the line. I guess I'd just like to know what these instructions are, because I can't say I've noticed joselu contributing much of anything. Even weird boring intangible shit.
-
But he's better than joselu... Can joselu be "trusted"? I'm wondering what we're trusting him for. It certainly isn't his ability to play football.
