I remember a rumour of that a few months ago - wouldn't be surprised at all

Irony from the OS's feature on the Ice Kings “We also suggested, years ahead of our time, having a sponsor’s name on the shirt but that was turned down on the grounds that the Club didn’t want to degrade itself by having advertising on the front of the shirts.

Would be early stock from the first batch of orders in early 2023, because we didn't know if we'd be relegated or not and whether that would affect the shirt sponsorship - FBS didn't want to keep paying their PL rate if we were in the Championship so voided the main sponsor agreement, and King Power sponsorship was only finalised late on because the club couldn't find another sponsor willing to pay an "acceptable" rate

Bit of a farce that it took 7 weeks to release this Club doing the bare minimum and then some as usual

Dyche would be proud

Unless you use a comb made out of teeth

Horrific incompetence from his agent Fumbled multiple moves to elite clubs because he's too greedy or too hard to negotiate with

Sources I can find gave the 5th goal to Monga Nice result nonetheless!

Villa scored before the half hour so they didn't have to push for a goal anymore. They could let us have the possession because we're playing Ndidi as a 10 so every attacking move breaks down

Good challenge

Given we didn't target Bentancur at all for the 5+ minutes he was limping like a pensioner, I can't see Cooper deciding to do target Bogarde now

Rudkin out chants 👏👏👏

As long as it would've been like Everton's Broja deal where we don't pay any of his wages if he's injured - even then he's on £190-200k a week so I think we could only afford 1/5 of that at most

In the Premier League and UEFA competitions yeah, I'm not sure if the EFL have followed suit, but if not then it will only matter if Birmingham get promoted back to the PL in those 5 years

They've signed Stansfield to a 7-year contract, so basically £2.8m transfer fee (if add-ons achieved) per year will be in the books

TransferRoom, yeah https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/4333076/2023/03/26/inside-transfer-room/

Exeter have a bit of a reputation for being a good place for young players to develop (mostly when their youngsters get poached by big 6 teams), seems like a great loan move for him

UCL fixtures are being played the same week though aren't they? So CL-qualified teams could've still played each other

They did a "pre-draw" to decide home/away fixtures before the actual draw Which knowing Sky was just a "make sure the biggest 4 teams are playing at home" instruction from higher ups

Walsall Away

Any word on the transfer fee? I saw €1.5m rumoured earlier which does seem a bit low

Scottish players are the hot new thing for Serie A clubs Obviously seen as undervalued with good return on investment

But even then he doesn't know which player with the surname we're bidding for 😂

The marketing copy for that kit was very keen in playing up west London's links to the birth of punk rock and Vivienne Westwood's SEX boutique on King's Road. Chelsea FC are the very furthest thing from punk rock!! 🤣🤣

Thomas Frank is very keen on "out-metricking" opponents. e.g. if his team are away to a big 6 opponent and lose, but outperform the opponent in stats like km run, tackles won, etc he's happy
