The Doctor

Interview last week suggested we're looking at him being back after the international break so just this game to get through?

Yes then Cardiff!!

God could you imagine the lack of pace there? Philogene and carvalho would have a field day

Oh **** off

Honestly that just makes it clear how much these rules aren't fit for purpose. If a company has money to spend it should be free invest it how it sees fit (provided that investment doesn't breach e.g bribery laws). Blocking teams from investing to compete is obviously anti-competitive laws and would be illegal under uk law as far as I understand it. I'd just love to see clubs like ourselves and others who get pinged on it challenge the legality of these rules.

great finish!

****ing hell we got away with that.

that pass from Thibaud Just absolutely abysmal. Like watching Jack Hobbs trying to play under Sousa.

It's a serious abuse of power, the question of whether consent is freely given when he has the power to ruin her career if it isn't is a massive minefield

It doesn't, but if they put their own money towards the stadium build and took loans to cover day to day running instead then those loans would be counted

Good luck with that, this entire problem re possible points deductions stems from rules effectively banning investment

That's precisely why it doesn't exist. FFP and PSR are not about sustainability of clubs, if they were the mentalist that owns reading would have been stripped of his ownership under them yonks ago given he's driving them out of business, or Lai Guochuan would have been blocked from causing serious damage to west Brom by embezzling from them to prop up his other ventures. But they're allowed to continue, we're getting punished for trying to break up the big six, Newcastle (regardless of the ethics of their ownership) are blocked from investing to challenge. It's a protectionist racket because they "don't want too many Leicester City's"

Kinda demonstrates how weird the UKs laws around hate are when the racial abuse is her calling a cop a "stupid white bastard". Which is outrageous, complete lack of Australian etiquette towards the Brits (it's poms instead)

Can add Norwich, Cov and Preston to the list this weekend as well if results go our way + leave hull only able to make it on GD.

Not confident, Enzo needs to step up and show his management chops in terms of squad utilisation and keeping us going. We seem constantly knackered and that's the only 3 of 5 subs and it always being the same subs.

that is not a penalty ref

stopping the rot is all that matters but the international break can't come soon enough. Bollocks to the cup game, get through Hull and then it's 3 weeks to rest Mav, KDH and Winks.

I mean, he wasn't very good but it helped us out in the end.

he just grabbed him from behind, that's a nailed on one.

that was a clear penalty

yea, it's about a minute 15 behind.

clinging on. game management is shocking. Glad it's only 4 minutes.

Flat ball

Abdul off? Not Mav?

KDH killing another attack. International break can't come soon enough.
