Salary caps work brilliantly, at least in the NHL which is the only North American sport I follow, as you've never far away from being a contender. Problem here is we don't have a flat league structure, we have the pyramid. Lets be honest if you were starting from scratch now and suggested 92...

Some confusion about Barca as well with some reports saying they were never actually confirmed as in it and only that they'd put it to a member vote which would almost certainly be rejected.

The prosecutors were keen to have third degree as essentially a fall back if they didn't get a second degree conviction but I wasn't aware you could be convicted of both.

What can the government do to prevent things like this and get ownership in line. Could they legislate that money can't be extracted from clubs? You need to stop the sort of sums being taken out of clubs like Man Utd in dividends and interest payments but also be careful not to block access to...

It was only introduced in the 90s in Germany wasn't it. How did they bring it in?

Only English club not to publicly confirm they're out at the moment is Chelsea but all media reporting they are out as well. Perez's next press conference should be good!

Not sure if this is great news or just wishful thinking. If they can get this sort of treatment alongside vaccines then surely we're at the point where covid genuinely does become a bit like getting the flu.

Will we need to put in for planning permission if we're going to start knocking walls down and putting a new shop front in? Assume so as Wasps did for the bar. Need to get a shift on if they hope to have it ready for next season.

Don't really wish the sort of trouble we've had on anyone but bringing Rooney in then not having the money to pay wages then signing loads of players in the window isn't going to make many people sympathetic if it does happen.

Suspected this would happen. Was hugely optimistic to think you could have crowds of tens of thousands living in a field for a week this summer.

Anyone get the feeling Souness knows something? Keeps saying it not JP Morgan's money and talking about when its revealed which country was funding it. Presumably the Saudi's. Is he guessing or in the know?

Jury has reached a verdict. Should be read between 9:30 and 10pm our time.

You could quite easily have Derby, Sheff Wed, Sunderland, Pompey and Ipswich all in L1 next season.

Remember the £2.6m Johnson spent on a Downing Street media briefing room for his televised media briefings? Not happening now, he's realised some members of the press don't always ask the questions he wants to answer. Stratton, who was hired as Johnson's press secretary is now spokeswoman for...

Its the chairman, Andrea Agnelli.

No more selectors. Now falls to the England coach assisted by scouts and analysts. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/56822502

Great news but lets hope this pushes the government to bring in the often threatened regulation of football. The football authorities and club owners have had enough chances and have done nothing meaningful.

Never seen fans so happy to not be in Europe!

Some of the footage from Stamford Bridge is nuts.

Thought they'd struggle to get it off the ground but didn't think it would collapse this quickly!
