wormy Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 If you were relegated, would it not incentivise teams to lose games and finish bottom in order to get more money? You’d be miffed off if you were fighting for the title or CL or whatever and your rivals were playing someone in that situation. Would it work if you didn't include the relegated teams? So they get some form of the current parachute payments while 1st-17th gets the reversed money. Wouldn't make sense to give CL-challenger money to a team about to go in to the Championship. Not that I'm a fan of the concept in general. You’d still have the same issue with all teams I guess. Teams 10th and below with 5 games to go would be incentivised to lose their remaining games as they have nothing other than money to play for. Agreed and why I'm not a fan in general. Would only stop extreme tanking. Probably have to look at implementing fines for fielding understrength teams but that'd be an absolute minefield.

La Parka Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Salary cap with designated players, enforced homegrown quota in matchday squad, enforced X u21 players in matchday squad. It will never happen though as the pl can't risk falling behind established big leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafalove Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 How do Red bull have such a brilliant and expansive scouting network? For example the Salzburg signed Patsin Daka from the Zambian league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Why do people bother to host illegal live football streams? Do they make a decent amount of money from the ads? Surely the ones that use the likes of acestream dont, so is it just a fuck you to the TV companies? I mean credit to them like, but it seems more hassle than it'd be worth unless there was financial gain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Was Darryl Janmaat a flop for us? HITC Sport did a list on flops that signed after a tournament and for us they picked Janmaat. I thought he was one of our better players that season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Was better going forward than defensively but not a flop at all. Would probably have been perfect for Benitez’s 3-4-3 when he was at his best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 How was it that we actually qualified for the '68/69 Fairs Cup? We finished 10th in the league the season prior. Was it fair play or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Think it was the Inter Cities Cup so you could only have 1 team from each city so you couldn't have both Liverpool and Everton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 When did Soccer AM stop being widely watched? As a kid always seem to remember it being on on a Saturday morning before going to the match, then just, well, stopped. Cold turkey pretty much as well. I know loads of people say it went downhill when Lovejoy left but I only remember it with Max Rushden. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I'd say when Lovejoy left. Loved it up until that point, although was a youngin so it could well have been shite in reality. Definitely will have aged very badly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Yeah when Lovejoy left. Sheephead left as well Wouldn't have worked today with Twitter and Youtube around but I loved it back in the day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stal Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (Slightly NSFW) Had to watch that 3 or 4 times before I caught on...then maybe another 3 or 4 times. Just to make sure. But yeah, Soccer AM was like Loaded Magazine but on TV and mainly football. Didn't really like it that much. Now the first few seasons of Fantasy Football, I thoroughly enjoyed those.

joeyt Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 BVB for a match. Would like to visit the San Siro too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Less fussy about individual fixtures but stadiums to visit off the top of my head would be Azteca for a Mexico or big America game Racing v Independiente or one of the other big 5 at El Cilindro A big European game at Fenerbahce or Besiktas complete with boat trip to the game. Not sure when they’re moving but more realistically I’d like to go to de Kuip before it’s obsolete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Thinking on this with Arsenal visiting tomorrow, but what clubs go on to have continued or greater success after spunking millions on a new stadium or big expansion. We're obviously an example of it going wrong, as are Arsenal and I expect Spurs to be the same. City were given their stadium so wouldn't include them, Chelsea maybe?

Rafalove Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 An obvious one being boca/River also wydad v Raja. Would love to go to an old firm game or Celtic on a European night. saint Ettienne El classico Rosario v Newells racing v independiente Id like to visit the san Siro before it goes and also Seville oh and redstart v partizan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
