Re: Is the club better off now since SD left ?
When you look at the players we had, there's no way we could have got a keeper as good as Pope or a centre half pair as good as Tarkowski and Mee as replacements. Had we sold them for good money we might have been relegated sooner than we were. We bought Tarkowski's replacement and still had the "e...

Re: The 'Penalty'
This isn't the case. If a player encroaches they aren't penalised for it unless their encroachment had a material impact on the outcome. The same goes for goalkeepers coming off their line before a kick is taken. If the keeper leaves his line and the penalty taker hits the bar there is no offence. ...

Re: Is the club better off now since SD left ?
If I was SD at the time, the last thing you would want to do was sell a player, knowing the chairman might, if you are lucky, give a thruppeny budget for a replacement. When he was able to move forward, we sold Heaton as we had Nick Pope. We sold Michael Keane, because he was 'wanted at a good pric...

50m in bank now £180m debt. The SD squad only got old because the Chairman, who milked the club, wouldn't strengthen. Wanted the money for himself, obviously. . That's nowhere near factual, Ian.

Re: The 'Penalty'
I didn't even realise they checked encroachment on VAR, and if they did do they do it for every penalty.
The offence is encroachment itself (cheating), not the effect it has.

If we drop:
Muric 1st choice (if he's prepared to stay).
Trafford on a half-season loan to a decent European team.
Find a club for Peacock-Farrell, free transfer?
Vigoroux as back-up.
Casper 3rd choice.
