The Bonk

I can't imagine what that would look like. If that's the case, why not wait to buy the club?

Man, this is so weird to me given my former employment by both of these through my agency. Not good news for my former colleagues.

Operationally, they are limited and can only fund costs associated with day to day operation. No player transfers in or out, no contract renewal or sponsorship renewal. £500,000 budget for home matchday expendidture. £20,000 for away games. Depending on when the takeover happens, FFP could come for them (probably won't). Expect new owners to sell some of their loan brigade when that happens. Broja to NUFC, please.

The ambiguity of that statement alludes to some truth in yours. Here's the license permissions (not sure if giggs): What a mess.

The most likely outcome will be some short term pain until a takeover happens.

It's not for everyone. I personally know people who will lose employment over this, people who have had their homes shelled by Russian tanks.

Chelsea were a big client of a former employer of mine, who, also employed a mix of Russian and Ukrainian developers, product managers, and designers. There's nothing funny about any of this and the fact that this whole disaster falls at the feet of Putin (others too, but he's the focal point) is disgusting. I hope he dies a long, drawn out, painful death. A bullet to the head is too good for him.

Was he offside after the flick on? Yup.

Strikes me as the type that needs motivation instilled in him and is clearly affected by the shit culture at Everton. On his day, he’s very good, that home game against Arsenal, he was unplayable.

I think they’re in trouble, everything is pretty rotten with them at the moment.

Leads with data in his analysis, shows little bias, not trying to play a character. He’s brilliant.

Vidal been a machine. Really want Inter to equalize.

I can't tell if Liverpool have been average for their ability that half or Inter are canceling out any sort of open attack. Both? The last 10min were dreadful.

Should be a yellow on the Thiago tackle.

This kid is great, enjoy his analysis. Any idea the app he's using on the iPad?

They wouldn't listen to Rafa, have seemingly tuned out Frank. Luck and individual talent is their only hope. Frank should ring up Bruce.

everyone channeling their inner Keano with comments on Richards. "He's having fun and being himself, so he should FUCK OFF!" I honestly wish he'd rip the piss outta Keano more. What? Nah man, you need the ex players in there, especially if there's drama on the pitch, then bias comes in and adds fuel to the theatre that is football. Thank fuck we aren't running the broadcasts.

Yeah! It’s enjoyable to see someone having a good time, especially with some of the other image conscious drips in that studio.

I bet he has no clue his PR team tweeted that nonsense.

You know the idea of him taking off his belt following the players down the tunnel after a loss for a backside whooping has rattled around his nugget more than once.

It's peak Boomer shite and hilarious.

Nah, beat Brentford before we played them.

Was bad, but there were two other players who could have closed Sissoko down.
