The London Stadium appears to be somewhat short of capacity at the moment! Haha I am actually surprised that many stayed. As soon as that 4th went in I would have been long gone.

I mate of mind has recently moved to Stafford, but still has a West Ham season ticket. He was on the 3.30 train from Euston yesterday!!

They have to find a way to punish clubs not fans. Retain prize money? TV revenue?

Agree mate but good to have them sweating a bit ha Bottom of the Prem is as bad as I can remember it tbh. Sheff U wouldn't be in the mix at the top of the Champ this year IMO.

Guessing with the inconsistent and spineless football authorities, Everton will appeal the decision and have 4 of those 10 points suspended, leaving them with a net deduction of 6 points.Not wishing to say "I told you so", but bloody hell, that was so fcuking predictable... The whole process is bent.

Agree, glad I follow a real team/club but I donโt feel the slightest bit guilty to say I really like watching the top teams - I donโt care how they are funded, life isnโt fair and just and thereโs plenty more to worry about in the world than football. Watching DeBruyne and Haaland tonight was a delight. Prem league is a cartel, and the championship is season on season struggling to compete with even the bottom 5. Best thing to happen is all the big 5-6 fuck off to a super league and rest of us crack on. Agree with Alan but agree it's also a cartel. Both things can be true.

Controversial ownerships are an interesting and often amusing side show too. Look what the Glazers have done to Manchester Reds and I reckon SW6 will go tits up eventually. The rule bending that goes on is at least some opposition to the faceless nobs at the FA and EFL. It would be better if these huge clubs did more for the small ones though - City could have saved Bury with their small change but it is also a valid question to ask โwhy should they?โ

You look at that set piece goal from city just now which is sublime and compare that to ours. Thatโs from simple hard work and drilling on the training ground where as we just appear to cross it and hope someone gets on the end of it.

Thatโs from simple hard work and drilling on the training ground where as we just appear to cross it and hope someone gets on the end of it. I was watching and thinking exactly the same thing. Of course we have no one close to De Bruyne in terms of ability, but nevertheless, corners are huge opportunities and they should be treated as such. We now have a decent corner taker in Andersen, so we should be spending some serious effort on working out simple but effective corner routines. We have a superb header of the ball in Cook and we have another great attacking defender in Dunne, as well as Field who can score. JCS/Hayden should be used as blockers. Chair, Smyth and Paal as diversions. Willock should stand outside the penalty box to attack balls that come out of the fray. We should work on routines again and again.
We all commented on how many corners we won v WBA for example, yet not one converted. That's criminal.

Surely pool should of had a pen kicking a player in the chest constitutes dangerous play. People will say he touched the ball but how often does a player follow through and a foul is given.
The laws are a joke.

Yeah think Forest deserve it. They decided to hang on to a player and miss that transfer window so they could get more money for him the next window? And justified this by saying this makes them more "sustainable"? I mean, what bollox, we could say breaking FFP by 20m and building a side that might challenge for promotion might make us more sustainable.

Can't see their appeal being successful, especially given the Prem wanted them deducted 8 points and the panel were going to deduct them 6, but gave them back 2 points for their cooperation through the process. The law is the law. Heard on BBC 5 Live that the Man City enquiry will be another year before results are announced, but expecting some BIG fallout from that. Unless of course there are some seriously substantial back-handers in play...
