Henry and Pires tried it years back. Completely fucked it up. it is legal. But I'd suggest more people don't do it because not a lot is easier than just taking penalty.
"Although he managed to turn around the club's poor away form, an indifferent run of results at home towards the end of the season meant that Albion finished fourth having been top at Christmas"
No stats on me right now, but I can check. But he has a rep as a bottler. Spoke to a Boro fan I met yesterday and first thing he said was that he bets TM bottles it soon. He thought we were still in top 2 aswell. But wasn't he top at Xmas with WBA and top two at Boro and finished no where near...
I don't mean to sound so doom and gloom but TM is a serial bottler. After Xmas, more often than not, his team's fall off, and can't buy a win, and I have a sneaking suspicion that that's what's happening now.
What's everyone's obsession with resigning players we've had? It's just lazy. I'm convinced people only say it because they don't know players from any other clubs...
I can't seem to find it, but I'm fairly sure when Bigi and Arma were resigned for the season, it was said that this would go up to play off final date if that eventuality happened.
