Mumps in adults can be really nasty.  I used to work with someone who contracted it as an adult and had to get a ball removed because of it.

Is it in the Albert Hall, Joseph?

I had it when I was 16, possibly the most unwell I’ve ever been. Couldn’t eat or even drink due to how swollen my glands were, horrid.

 

Thankfully both bollocks in tact.

One of the important differences between the current system and SCR is how profits on player sales are accounted for. Easiest to give an example and hopefully this is correct.

 

so a scenario where:

 

player signed for £50m on a five year contract

player sold for £60 million after three years 

 

current system

 

Amount that would count towards FFP for year sale made would be:

£60m minus £20m (ie because still had two years left on contract)

= £40m

 

New  system

 

Amount that would count towards SCR for that year would be:

£60m minus £20m (ie because still had two years left on contract)

=£40m

However the profit made now has to be spread over three years so you would only get:

£13.3 million in the current SCR year and then

 

£13.3 million in the following SCR year and then

£13.3 million in the following SCR year 

 

 

BUT when it is brought in I am thinking  (possibly incorrectly as I have not seen it mentioned anywhere) sales made during the last two seasons will also need to be included therefore, for example, we would get a third of the profit that we made on the Isak sale.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So 3 years is the standard? If you sell an academy player, that will still count more, only that it's pure profit spread over 3 years instead of 1?

If his medical team are trying to hold him back, hold him back ffs. 

Howe says he is in agreement with them.

Where does it say that? What I'm reading is "I’ll make a decision based on what I see today in training. But there’s a possibility."

The medical team are trying to hold him back... I say hold him back, there's always that tug because the player is desperate to play and I love that with Bruno.

 

Might have interpreted that wrong actually.

Yeah I read that as him explaining what he means by saying 'hold him back' it could be either though
