They’ve won 7 out of the last 9 titles. Their squad ‘market value’ is three times higher than their closest competitor and accounts for 1/3 of the whole league combined. Their owners are worth more than all of the other clubs in France’s top two leagues, combined. It’s a one team league in every definition and a once in a blue moon season where they change manager and go through a bit of a transition doesn’t remove that.

The team that have won 7 of the last 9 titles and finished 2nd on the two rare occasions they didn’t win it. Yes. The overall quality of Ligue 1 is absolutely wank.

Well, it’s slightly different in the fact Ronaldo will be joining a competitive league whereas Messi has signed for a one team league.

Bet Dynamo Kyiv are delighted.

Or just educate your kids that Ashley and Bruce aren’t worth your support and go and watch some local non-league? It’s just another excuse trotted out; I hate the wife, I’ve always been, it’s tradition, my mates go, my kids want to go.

Remanded in custody apparently. Fucking hell man. Mad how people with such successful lives still manage to be fucking rotten.

Almost like we need a group with a significant member base and finance to coordinate efforts of protest. Otherwise the smaller groups may as well be herding cats.

I thought footballers were routinely tested? I’ve not watched the video yet, but plan to tonight.

They’ll fall into the ‘idiot’ category then.

You can’t just implement a new system overnight ffs. We’re still in transition from Rafa’s defensive football.

It’s not surprisingly in a way, sadly. All of the proper fans and old school lot have been boycotting for years. They’ve just been replaced though with idiots, kids and chavs due to the freebies/cheaper tickets. Those that care about the club aren’t there anymore. So why be surprised if those who now are, aren’t able to recognise Bruce for what he is? He’s essentially turned the whole thing into his normal client base at Sports Direct.

Hope you enjoyed it, sorry you had to watch the utter turd we produce. In terms of stadiums to go to, I highly recommend places like Portsmouth, Bradford, Sheff Wed and Fulham. Much better than the modern ‘flat pack’ stadium you see now; Leicester, Reading, Brighton etc.

Hopefully everyone who attended had a great night out, that’s all that matters.

Depends if you go by only checking their results or have watched their matches. Bournemouth supporting mate thinks they were very lucky to have the points on the board that they do based on performances so far and last night’s result was always likely.

Hayden is a player we should’ve improved on, but haven’t. There have been many players like that during Ashley’s tenure and we still have a large amount of them at the club; Gayle, Dummett, Clark, Darlow etc. But Hayden still gives 100%. It’s hard to knock the lad when he does. He’s not a lazy piece of shit like Shelvey and has gone through some incredibly tough times where he easily could’ve given up. He’s given his all for this club and has been the upmost professional. On his day (played alongside someone competent and using tactics) he can be a good player. Compared to the rest of the dross in the midfield at the club, he should be the first on the teamsheet.

Best manager in the world according to Kaka. Fulham have immediately improved without him and Bournemouth look bang average.

Fairly convinced he’s a WUM tbh.

Things I would rather do than watch this: Lock myself in a room with the mother in law Herd cats Cover myself in lard and slide down Everest

“couldn’t afford” The media love playing to Ashley’s tune.

Our first 11 isn’t strong, Steve. After you’ve made your changes we’d struggle to be competitive against South Shields.

It’s just the latest excuse to make no signings. Weird how we always have so many issues preventing us from spending money, that no other teams seem to have.

They will almost certainly come back in as soon as we’ve got a clear route for the deal to succeed, I don’t think that’s a major issue. Although I do think @Whitley magvastly overestimates PIF’s desire to get this deal done. PIF were unwilling to submit the documentation requested and allow themselves to go through the test, so I doubt they’re willing to restructure their entire organisation for a minor investment.

Aye. Didn’t think they’d be anywhere near as good as last year, but they currently look the part.
