Absolutely! And it's possible that it may get dragged out for weeks and weeks, because we could potentially end up waiting for the outcome of Europa and the FA Cup before we know if we've got European football next year.

This sort of thing just reminds us of how amazing out PL win in 2016 was, because the odds really are stacked against the non big-6 clubs. It seems they can do exactly what they want and then buy their way out of it. The smaller clubs can never compete. Decisions go against us on the pitch with refs usually finding in favour of the big clubs, and off the pitch with the infinite money and disregard of FFP rules. It makes it all seem a bit pointless,

I agree - I thought they'd reduce it to a year, so as not to make UEFA look stupid. But now CAS couldn't have sent a clearer message that money talks, and no amount of legal evidence will change that.

And they could all check their eyesight too

I’m more concerned about where they can train. If Leicester city is out of bounds, then matches can be played elsewhere, but where will they train?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

OK no one will actually prefer it, but I was wondering which players might almost thrive on the lack of crowd. We can be pretty sure Vardy won’t, but someone like Nacho might prefer to play without the huge amount of negativity he gets from the crowd. I’m sure I heard that he was consistently better in training than in matches. Chilwell too, he seems to get a fair bit of banter which he might prefer not to have. Tielemans too maybe? or perhaps I’m just clutching at straws and they’ll all be rubbish without the blue army!

I’d be surprised if a) anyone answered, and b) they knew the answer. I might try in a couple of weeks if I can face the futility of the exercise!

I assume that the cup tickets won’t be refunded until the FA Cup is officially cancelled, which it hasn’t been yet has it? Even though we all know it will be.

Do we just sit tight and wait to hear? I was hoping relocate my season tickets for next season, so I don’t want to miss any deadlines. Should I just assume that until we know what’s happening with the rest of this season, that no decisions will be made regarding next season? I know they suspended the auto-renewal , but I don’t have that anyway. Anyone in the know?

I can’t believe Kaspar lives in a flat and doesn’t have a garden!

We were the better team and they got lucky. I don't know where 4 minutes stoppage time came from - I reckon it should only have been about 2 minutes, in which case we'd have gone to penalties and probably won. The penalty shout was strange. They seemed to show 2 replay clips on TV. The first one wasn't a handball and the second one was, so I wonder if the wrong bit of play was analysed. Weird. Anyway, Villa will have a long journey to Wembley then watch their team get spanked by Man City and have all that nasty traffic going home again. I don't envy them that!

With regard to release clauses, I’d have thought all managers would have them, even at clubs like Leicester who officially “don’t do release clauses”. After all, hanging on to a disgruntled want-away player isn’t too much of a pain. They usually step up eventually, after a bit of a sulk. But if they don’t then they can just be benched. But a disgruntled manager would be toxic all round.

Thank you

I’ve loved the music and film etc every season until now. It’s much louder this season.
