The Saudis are in the process of “negotiating” with UEFA about allowing their league winner to enter the Champions League That will make a big difference to their league There are plenty of footballers to go around, so if they want to go for the payday, let them get on with it They won’t be missed,...

Do you believe though that playing in that heat, those times, at the sub standard level it is right now, will improve the players? Like that Viega...in 4 years time would he have been a better player if he had gone to Arsenal who were after him, or moving to the Saudi club he has chosen? Its okay as...

Worrying for a lot of clubs who are losing their identity and their futures under multi club ownership. I was at the FSE/FSA Conference recently when I heard some horror stories from fans of the smaller clubs trapped into this. I understand where you are coming from, but would multi club ownership ...

Also the whole English youth system is corrupt and set up for the benefit of the elite clubs, we have to swim in the pond we are in, sadly we are in amongst power hungry sharks that care not a jot for the smaller ones amongst them. Hopefully we join them but in a more thoughtful way and not just for...

Lets send over Franchi, Bastien, Churlinov when fit, Dodgson and possibly that young lad we got from Spurs. Should get the relationship started I am all for this. Yes its not nice but it is what is happening all over the world, lets not kid ourselves it has been happening for years, like when Liverp...

Now it didnt really matter when they were signing over 30's and the likes of Ronaldo to try to boost their league. But now with the signings of the likes of Gabri Viega who was tipped for the top and big things they are obviously trying more than just having a circus league with big names on their l...

I don't want this thread hijacked but VK has not succeeded in The Premier League yet, so he hasn't made 'an absolute mockery of those who said we couldn’t afford to not play hoof ball' because I'm sure 'those who said' it were referring to the top division. I hope VK does succeed of course but we w...

So I was thinking after CTs post about all of Kompanys signing and who was my favourite. It was so hard to think of just one Benson and his goals Zaroury and his runs Muric because of how he just changed the way we play and the effects on some of the older amongst us when the ball is at his feet, th...

Don’t think we need to worry about Greenwood. Something tells me that Mr Pace and VK wouldn’t be keen at all!

I hope you are right...but not long ago we were after Bemjamin Mendy until he chose to go France

I was talking about his hatred of Keane, not Dyche this time He’s always hated Keane for some reason Keane has always played well when the team is set up properly but at Everton it’s rarely happened for any sustained period of time By properly I mean having a midfield doing it’s job instead of just...

Cleveleys_claret

Are you thinking I’ve forgotten your pathological hatred of him? If we are throwing out such accusations, I read a lot KRBFC's views on Dyche during his tenure. A lot aligned with my own thoughts on him, such things as the constant "there aren't the players out there within our budget" and the "pla...

I think this thread should be suspended until transfer deadline day on 1st September. That's the only date we will all know what is what. Rumours and guesswork followed by anticipations and disappointments is not good for anyone! I think if you don't like it keep your opinions to yourself. The titl...

Seems extremely generous when all it takes is a scrappy set piece to equalise and it to go to penalties.

I would guess the bet would only be a result in 90 mins

Re Beyer. We’ll find out at 2pm next Saturday that’s how our media savvy club works now.

The club aren't allowed to release details of injuries. When will people understand this. As employers they are not allowed to disclose these details, the player can...but the club aren't allowed to.

Why? Can they buy him back for a quid or something? Is it hard to understand he may end up rubbish/ injured to a point he never recovers and then we don't get anything for him But if he excels we have paid for the privilige of improving him, doing all the legwork and them then buying him back at a ...

That would require money being put into the club - the only ways that could have happened over the summer is if part/all of the loan CVHL have from the club is repaid, or the ownership group have loaned money to the club. I know you do a lot to break down finances and try your best to explain to si...

Isnt Egan Riley also long term injured ?

Oh yes he is...hard to keep with so many players, either way I doubt he would have been registered

Cleveleys_claret

For the financially astute on the board...could these minority investors be the reason we are able to sign so many players. By this I mean say we have recruited 5 investors this summer all investing 2 million each. This would then fund 5 signings and pay that yearly payment on them. With the added e...

Watched the whole series and absolutely amazing stuff and a great advertisement for Test cricket, always my preferred format.

Question though, when handing out awards...Woakes and Starc and the captains all spoke. Root got an award at the beginning, was there a reason he didn't do an interview?

Didn’t seem to stop Celtic (as one example) wearing their Dafabet sponsored shirt away at Real Madrid. Also Real and Barca have special advertising boards. The technology allow Far East companies to superimpose their image onto the advertising hoarding for their Asian viewers. Talk already if Engli...

That’s what’s happening.

Also amongst the free tickets was some kind of challenge to go to every game in Qatar, meaning her would go to one match for just 5 or 10 mins and then go to the next one, which seemed a waste and not actually taking in the games

A lot of the hatred from football fans come from his free tickets he receives and boasts about it. Him and his Dad (an opinionated Bolton Tory) got several free tickets for matches in the top flight and for England internationals whilst other fans who wanted to pay were unable to get tickets.

Could somebody create a compilation of Weghorsts highlights, I know only a few so maybe double down on lots of camera angles of the same highlight to get it to last longer.

Also add Arabic writing to the video and hopefully we can flog him to a Saudi side
