  1. That is the problem when supermarkets close for a day.
  2. The findings of FFP are coming out early May. The overpriced sponsorship deals are factored in and sounds like City are going to be in trouble.
  3. Can you tell me where the £48 million was spent in January?
  4. Why do you keep on with 'don't be fooled by the media' line? I am not fooled. You just sound like someone railing against the PL and longing for the past. My observation is that PL is more competitive and entertaining this season. You think that because I have this view Scudamore and Murdoch have brainwashed me. I know a Liverpool have spent huge sums in the past but the team Rodgers has built seems more reflective of coaching and tactical nous not an assemble of superstars. The fact that they are going to score 100+ goals also adds to the entertainment.
  5. Sorry not really getting your point? Who are you expecting to win the league? If you strip back from all the hype it is healthy completion that maintains interest. It has that this season. Using figures since PL inception is not the point either. If ever there was a season where the title hasn't been 'bought' then this is it and no one realistically thought Liverpool,could compete for title this year so is not a smokescreen at all.
  6. This season has been exciting. I hate the marketing around the PL but undeniably the healthiest where a team that was 7th last season with a core of English talent are going to out perform the oligarch and sheik playthings. Plus 11 teams in relegation battle for most of season does make the league healthy added to the fact the promoted sides have done well. No other top European league can experience that. I am not a PL fanboy but is undeniable this season

    Big vic!

    Played very well, on Saturday and good to see. Don't know why so many always need to have a polarised view. Sometimes players play well some times they don't. Those who say VW so much better than JC will quite conveniently forget games like Fulham away where the half-time change ensured we won the game.
  9. What about Snodgrass?
  10. Amazing that some think that is article backing an agenda against Saints. F me how gushing and fawning do you need journalists to be? Valid concerns against FFP that will allow big clubs to remain stronger. Many others have said the same.
  11. Always been irrelevant?? Comical how complacent the white man can be.
  12. 12/5 for AV win looks very generous
  13. Was carnage that day and our hooligan reputation enhanced. Rolfie in his beige Pringle was pretty naff though.

  15. What an insensitive cvnt you are.
  16. It is a horrendous tragedy and is being reported but the plane got so much coverage due to the unknown. If it had just hit a mountain then woudl have been halfway down the news.
  17. Yeah all offers will be based on a newspaper article. When in proper negotiations they produce the Guardian article and say ha we know you have money so cough up.
  18. Interesting so many see so much in what looked to me like a pretty sensible chap with some decent perspective on club. Of course some will want a Risdale type dreamer but sound like we are in safe hands and not sure what others want him to say? A smart man is never going to make comments he can't back up like we will keep MP/Shaw at all costs.
  19. Do the club publish revenue from ticket sales? Quick mental calculation is that whole season's sales would not come to £30m. Whilst every player has their price and Shaw's has probably gone up by £15 m this season, they could just think of this as a bonus to give back to customers in reduced ticket prices. Of course they won't and there is again going to be a rise.
  20. I can watch every game in near perfect HD. ST for years but going to consider as point of principle as anything else. Awash with money and expect fans to stump up more. And more depressing the amount of mugs who say 'not bad'.

    Calm yourself? What you on about? Oh and btw the way you are completely wrong. He has had no shots on target in 7 Serie A games. Why would not having a shot on target in one game he didn't complete be of note? You can find things out on the internet as well you know.http://espnfc.com/team/squad/_/id/111/league/ita.1/juventus?cc=5901

    Sorry mate I would believe Paolo Bandini over you. And think he has better contacts than you to be aware of such things.

    Sure there must be a thread somewhere but his form seems to still be dipping. Subbed off again tonight and hasn't had a shot on target in his 7 Juve games apparently. In danger of losing Italy place as well so doesn't bode well for us getting our money back.
