Edwards is covering the England team in France, so probably not super clued in right now anyway.

It's come a long way in just a few years. We've gone from having maybe three teams good enough to win it to seven or eight. In terms of attendance FIFA is getting a lot of flack. They claimed most games were sold out a month ago and most host cities have absolutely no promotion outside of the stadium, which is very unlike FIFA. Maybe it's because I'm American and have a better standard of women's soccer to watch on top of the national team being in the public eye since the 90s, but I love the world cup and am enjoying this one so far. You're not doing yourself any favors comparing it to the men. There's a lot of good stuff going on at the top level, but there's also a lot of countries here with basically no funding. Watch the top teams and you'll enjoy it more. As more money keeps coming into the game, like it has in the UK over last 5 years, you'll see a huge increase in quality. No reason to make pitches smaller or any gimmicks like that

Chronicle said the club's final offer include more money to spend but didn't budge on ag restrictions and pretty much anything else Rafa wanted

Already pay for The Athletic, will be nice to not have a paywall in front of his stuff now. Well, it'll still be there, just not for me

Considering how shit all my team's have been for the last decade, this scoreline is welcome

Definitely helps having about 80x the financial support behind us compared to Thailand. I am fine with this

That Gold Cup squad is really bad. We've done absolutely nothing to change since losing to T&T. Not like there aren't young players who don't deserve a chance

Nice change of pace being able to offload a player who isn't good enough early in the summer as opposed to three seasons too late

He loves a shit challenge

It's not like Ashley would be paying for it personally either. It's the club's money whoever the owner is

I generally don't care to go after reporters who are just reporting what they here, but there seems to be no doubt from them over the club's side of thngs. The club clearly lied yesterday to Douglas about the signs coming down for cleaning, and the club had definitely lied to these journos before. Yet, for some reason, all their skepticism is towards the new group and not the club that has lied to them for years.

Just loop me back into the takeover talk once everyone eliminates their pain points and we hit the definition of done

Oh no, the thread's terrible again

Mike's just mad they're not his cousins' tits

Feels like you're connecting dots that aren't there. The club asking fan groups not to criticize their response to the rumors tells me absolutely nothing.

I don't think the way ketchup is applied is the issue here

I need this to end so I don't have to see "Various:Sheikh" without a space between it anymore

The silence from the club only makes me think this might be genuine...not the other way around. That entire Graves tweet is so naive

Second bit reads like a Trump tweet tbh

Not concerning at all he's willing to hint at a 350 million pound transaction on LinkedIn

Did anyone he ever claim to go to King's College? His Geocities says Boston College and Michigan State

There's like thousands of billionaires in the world, can we ever be approached by one who isn't a grifter?

Could really use a statement from the club

Still not going to believe it

Yeah this definitely isn't happening
