Yeah looks like it, to be fair. It was the knock out stages though.

Could be the semis and most teams would barely sell half the ground

I actually wondered if Atlanta would be in the market for Haji Wright - that's a pretty astounding fee for a MLS club either way.

And everyone knows it. Wonder if they spunk it over the weekend or risk their playoff push

They won't spend all of that, they made an operating losses in the last two seasons even with a cumulative profit on player sales of £39m. They owe £10.6m in transfer and loan fees due this year.

That's nothing, they got 611 at home to Swindon in December - and Wycombe is probably one of the shortest journeys Swindon will have this season. At that point you may as well not open the stands.

Remember watching us against Northampton at the then Ricoh in our game in the Carabo? cup. One stand open and not many there for us. We did win it though.

Still pissed with Collins and Bassette for that Pompey game.

Would have comfortably won if those two hadn't shat the bed.

Would have snapped their hands off for that fee for Wright.

Do people think Lath is that good? Is he better than Wright?

How utterly ridiculous, that transfer fee for Latte Lath is basically a cheat code. There should be valuations carried out when you purchase a player, like buying a house with a mortgage.

I know inflation is tough but £22.5 million for a coffee is taking the piss

That said, if that had been elsewhere on the pitch, I'd have blown for a foul - albeit accidental. If he had tripped him, accidentally, it can still be a penalty.

If you connect with the ball and follow through with your foot and hit the player, it can be deemed as a foul, although you are challenging for the ball. Not sure what the difference is regarding a foul using the head?

Millwall just broke their transfer record, £4.5m on a winger from Holland.

Derby almost certainly going down. Just sold their best defender Cashin to Brighton.
