Village Idiot Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 This is random like. Robinson also did voice-over work on television adverts, as well as feature films – voicing the ugly sister in the dubbed Spanish versions of the Shrek films by DreamWorks Animation. Not so strange. They used a celebrity cast for the Spanish version of Shrek films, and Robinson was a celeb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 The whole idea of all-time non-top 6 players was already mad because Newcastle, Leeds, Blackburn etc have all had spells at the top. And does Kevin Phillips REALLY belong on that list? Not a chance. That's before we even get to the lack of Shearer.... maybe MotD are sick of including him when he's one of the panel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's before we even get to the lack of Shearer.... maybe MotD are sick of including him when he's one of the panel bit of a one season wonder Phillips but still 30 goals in a premier league season is a rare feat its only happened 7 times (I think) in a 38 game season and the others are a whos who of great forwards in the last 27 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 What’s the difference between Shearer & Batty going by their criteria? Both won the title at Blackburn, both finished top 2 with us, both went on to compete around 3rd-6th after 1997 for a spell with us and Leeds. Weird.

Kaizero Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Scary figures. Football is the Wild West. Thankfully the bubble is going to burst and big time imo. Are the numbers for League Two meant to be high? Genuine question, wages aren't comparable between country due to currency differences and so on, but half of the League Two numbers look like less than minimum wage over here, which made me genuinely interested in the level of average wage in the UK vs strength of currency/buying power. Or is it meant to showcase the difference between players and the rest of the staff? That's what I assumed from Collymore's tweet, but the article having the headline "the eye watering sums spent across the EFL" felt like they meant all of it.

Village Idiot Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 It looks like the Spanish FA will abandon the rest of the Women's Football season and declare Barça champion, with no relegations but with promotions (and adjusting league sizes with extra relegation slots next season). They have followed a similar formula for regional men's football. Men's professional leagues are not run by the FA (but by La Liga) so this may not be the case for the top men's 2 divisions.
