cubaricho Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Those are the same two events they did in Nashville too. The meet and greet was alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) 12 hours ago, Dr.Spaceman said: If forcing some of our stars to play 45 mins in Aus means our transfer budget is a few mil better off, then so be it. Doesn’t make any difference to our transfer budget - it’ll go into the 23/24 accounts. More likely it’ll offset any potential FFP worries for this season (edit - as in the one just finished) Edited May 20 by TheBrownBottle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon this is the same. Haven't had any details taken, no formal tickets issued - I think they're just keeping an eye on general numbers more than anything.

They didn't check anyone in or anything at either of the events it was just first come first served type situations. They just want our data. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Wonder if there's any slight resentment from Spurs for going out of the CL early and having a big part in 5th not being enough for them to qualify themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
