How fucked up are you (Ca$hworth) if he thinks he can dictate and intervene the buy-out price we demanded?

I’m sure Manure will win this because the whole system is rigged and corrupt anyway. 

YESSSSSSSSSS!!

I can see why they need Ca$hworth. Unfortunely, and hopefully, Manure will continue to sink… and stink.

I expect them to put Man City out of business then….

Just the general atmosphere but would like to see Ipswich come up. I point the idea of a team where the money would make a massive difference to them.

I can relate to that. If I remember correctly SBR managed them for many years Thanks for the tip! Might sign up for Championship next season

I’ve really enjoyed the championship this season to be honest, tried getting into rugby but the best thing about it is it’s 10 minutes shorter.

Any team you follow in particular, or just the general atmosphere?

Anything suggest other clubs (like us) will be able to compete with the top 6, or are these new regulations a way to further ensure domination?

Have to admit; I have barely bothered watching English football this season.
 

Much more looking forward to the Norwegian football starts. 

Think I’m all out next season if the game continues to be rigged (corrupt) for the top 6. 

Howe is pushing the players way too hard. Injuries all over the place. 
Not sure how far he can take this team. FFP isn’t doing us any favours either. 

This rule will ultimately end my interest in foreign football all together. Purely because it’s rigged to ensure that no one can ever compete with the biggest Clubs. The occasional fluke will happen during a freak season, but that’s it. 

Worrying that the top 6 can ‘cherry pick’ important straff from us like this. I might be naive, but I really believed we had more pulling power than this.

Erm... 

 

Nicky Butt? 

 

Alan Smith?? 

 

Gabriel Obertan??? 

What a f’ing wankfeast this is in the media. Really pathetic. 
Also, if true; Dan Ashworth - fuck off. 
Rinse Manure for compensation and send DA on gardering leave for a year. 
Manure has never done us any favors. 

Love BrunoPlease stay…. Forever!

Embarrassing result

Fucking Luton😂 What the hell is going on? Just looked at the score. Jesus…

Their initial intention with FFP I’m sure was noble. But it will never work as intended. Never. It will backfire immensely and utimately hurt the interest in EPL and football. 
It only serves to protect the biggest clubs, and if that’s the way they want it, they should support the creation of a Super League rather than fight it. 

Looking forward to LiVARpool (hopefully) disappearing after the summer. 

So, it’s now a thing that if you «only have 6 months left of your contract» you can leave for free? Does it work the other way too. You’re surplus so we can release you for free…?

FFP is such a shambolic thing.

I do think Sky will start to get restless if there are further Jan windows like this. Viewing figures/general engagement will be way down. 

 

Between commercial partners, and FFP starting to bite even for top 6 sides (Man U and Chelsea both apparently limited this window) I can see a re-jig of the rules in the next couple years. I mean, even just adjusting the losses allowed to account for inflation would be a start. It hasn't changed since it was implemented.

TL;DR Scrap FFP. 

Please remember, FFP works just as intended. If it didn’t they would reinforce it - which they will as soon as the ‘Elite’ feels threatened again.

Liverpool brought on Jota, Gakpo, Gravenberch and Mac Allister. Harvey Elliott didn't get on. They have injuries too, Matip, Robertson, Tsimikas, Thiago. Both their quality left backs are fucked and they still have Joe Gomez to play there.

 

That's what rotation is meant to look like when you play a CL campaign, two elite XIs plus cover even for them. We're squabbling over whether Lewis Hall and Matt Ritchie should have been given an extra 20 minutes, it's deckchairs on the Titanic stuff.

 

The problem for any club that qualifies out of the blue like we did is that all the other clubs in it, especially in England, have built CL capable squads up over a decade. FFP stops us doing that in one go or even several.

And that my friend is why modern football is fucked up and rigged so that the big clubs will remain big for eternity. 

Soooooo… I’m intrigued to know what we have «learned» from this experience….

Too early to consider sacking him, but I’m afraid his intense style both have been ‘found out’, and has led to so many injuries and fatigue in the squad. 

We are clearly short in numbers to compete on ‘all fronts’, but we also can’t go out spending too much because of the ridiculous FFP rules.
