How come they have to pay millions back if the fixtures are being played and shown live on Sky?

On the pitch its hard to argue we're not better off. We were a team suffering years of decline with a bloated squad of players looking for a payday. We're now a team on the up and, while we're not self sufficient, the team budget seems to be under control. Off the pitch not being tied to an...

If you go to the shops or the park over the last couple of weeks its like nothing had ever happened. I suppose at least between the VE Day parties, crowded parks & beaches and now the protests it will give the scientists some data to work with depending on how big the spike is, should help with...

Even if you believe his massively over simplified version of the financial situation he's talking about an extra team being in L1 next season. The knock on effect is L2 being one team short so the teams with the least income would lose more money.

Wonder if he'll stick to his word and quit if they don't get promoted. I'm going to guess he won't.

Zero chance of the league rejecting them. The fit and proper test is self certification and unless you've been convicted of something is virtually useless. Plenty of business is done between the UK and Saudi so on what grounds could they block it? There's a lot of dodgy owners when you start...

The part where they're complaining about the club not engaging with the Trust, IMO that's not likely to change without removing certain people from the Trust. If they really do want a relaunch then those that have worked against the club in the past need to go before any attempt to engage with...

Hancock said Weston Super Mare has a localised lockdown. This was immediately followed by loads of people who live there tweeting that they have no idea what he's on about.

Trump will have a fit when he finds out about this

Who is that bloke? Every time you post one of his tweets up he's claiming the numbers aren't really as high as being stated due to backdating. At no point has the number been given been the number of people who died that day.

First reply to that is from a Tranmere fan "shows clubs are all out for themselves and integrity/fairness counts for nothing", you couldn't make it up!

65,000 excess deaths but a few more lycra warriors on the roads. Why would you even mention it, there's no way you can say that and it not sound callous.

New schedule for the West Indies series. Using Rose Bowl and Old Trafford as they have on site hotels. Windes will be based at Old Trafford for training. First Test v West Indies: 8-12 July, Southampton Second Test v West Indies: 16-20 July, Old Trafford Third Test v West Indies: 24-28 July...

Thanks for posting that as I haven't received anything from them,. As I've said many times when Fisher has opened his mouth and promised all sorts of things actions speak louder than words. There's nothing in there we haven't heard several times before from the Trust and nothing has ever...

People who are wondering why things escalate so badly should think what would happen if the police went into the naughty corner swinging batons at anyone in sight and hitting pensioners and people defenceless on the ground. You have to wonder what happens that we don't see when this is all...

Can't be true. How many times we were told we held all the cards and this would never be allowed to happen?

Would agree with that summary. The Lincoln proposal actually makes sense, the rest are just self interest. As the idea seems to be to create a rule that can also be used in the future if required surprised nobody has suggested a minimum number of games that need to be completed, unless that's...
