Re: Pace/ALK set to buy Espanyol?

All downhill from here. Every single bad thing that happens in football is welcomed by fans and this is no different.

On a seperate note I really don't think we have any players we want to loan out who can get near a La Liga team. Maybe I'll be proven wrong.

Re: Osmajic

When this thread was last active over a month ago, this had already taken longer to resolve than recent high profile cases like Suarez, Bentancur and Rodriguez.

It's all very well saying these thinks take time but this is pathetic by the FA.

Re: Loyalty Points Update

It's an incentive to get people to use the ticket exchange when they can't attend a game. Yes and it's good, but it would still be ridiculous to give more points to people who sell the ticket than people who go to the game. It is incentivising you to do one or the other and not leave the seat empty.
