Disco Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Was reading today the new Brentford ground has flats in it too. Madness. Obviously the new flattened griffin park will immediately become unaffordable housing. £30 for the end behind the goal at Fulham. Pair of red chords and a Serbia flag and I’ll be reet.

Stifler Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Looks alright that man, much better than the old proposal they had. As if any of you lot wouldn’t be tempted to buy a flat in the Gallowgate if we did it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Can someone please explain to me the format of the Belgian 2nd division? Why does the team finishing 2nd go into a group format to try and qualify for the Europa League? Yet the team finishing 3rd gets promoted? What?

Wullie Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Can someone please explain to me the format of the Belgian 2nd division? Why does the team finishing 2nd go into a group format to try and qualify for the Europa League? Yet the team finishing 3rd gets promoted? What? The top two tiers are technically the same division - 1st Division A and B, operate as two separate divisions for a while then split/combine at some point in the new year, going into various little groups to compete for the title, EL places and relegation places. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Re: the kicking off earlier thing. When interviewed Keegan's side thought we were at a definite disadvantage in '95 - '96, having the majority of our games moved to Sunday or Monday for tv. That wasn't it. We were invincible at home and not so away. Fixtures were stacked with the better teams at home first half of the season so we blitzed it then got caught second half as manyoo found form.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 If you’re promoted back to the PL at the first or second time of asking, do you continue to get parachute payments? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be wrong like... It’s changed, if you go up after a relegation then you don’t receive parachute payments, nor would your parachute payments start all over again if you go back down within 5 years. So say we go back down in the next 4 seasons (not including this one where we are presumed safe), then our parachute payments would only start from the 2nd season of parachute payments instead of the 1st.

geordiesteve710 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 If you bounce back first time, I'm sure you get the parachute payment for the season you're in the championship but not for the second or third season as you're back on the gravy train at the point of promotion? As an aside on this point, I was told yesterday that there is actually a small "parachute payment"-type package to lessen the financial impact on clubs relegated from the championship to league 1. Ergo, our mates from down the road will be in receipt of two lots of parachute payments next season if as expected they go down. Which will probably account for about 80% of their turnover. Which it's hard not to laugh at! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Just saw on twitter that Carragher has just posted some video of Liverpool fans singing some song about always winning in Europe and their great history etc and it got me thinking. Isn't it common knowledge that Carragher grew up an Everton fan? I'm sure that if you play for a club for as long as Carragher does, you end up loving that club, but I find it really odd that players are often quoted as saying how much they enjoy scoring or doing well against the team they grew up supporting. Maybe when you're a player, football just becomes a job and nothing more and/or you never have an entire childhood where you are passionate about one club so it doesn't matter, but I can't imagine ever enjoying scoring against Newcastle.

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Any fan of one of Milner's ex clubs that boos him is a proper phlegm wad, like. There aren't many players that put in the graft like he does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
