scenes if we manage to stay up by suing Everton for a PL place.

Luton Town replacing us in the PL 😂....

Justin should have stayed put!

[Corky]

Desperate stuff. We've lost 22 games this year, we aren't going down because Everton spent money on average to crap players and managed a few more points.

It would be a bit pot kettle in our place as well to a lesser degree, as didn’t we have to settle with the football league for FFP breaches after escaping the Championship last time? 😂

We did. We need to take this season on the chin and sort ourselves out, not get away with things on technicalities.

Well, part of the reason we didn't strengthen was to remain within the rules.....

[ealingfox]

Going to be in a lower league than Luton, Brentford and Bournemouth. Absolutely grim.

We also have a squad full of players who finished in European places and won a Cup. Yet we are sat below a team who are going at well under a point per game.

 

This season is fully on us.

Even worse if it's Coventry and Forest for you?!

 

Mind you least none of them are managed by a manager you've sacked in recent times.

 

I know there are a few..

 

 

We were doing ok under Edwards too.

 

Barmy decision - one of the worst.

Potentially being dumb here, why has that pitch invader been charged with assault for pushing Eddie Howe? 

Understand the pitch invasion aspect of his charge obviously, but assault?

On the bright side still a league above Derby and Portsmouth!

If he put his hands on him, and gave him a push that’s assault, hence the charge.

Just seems stupid when literal cm's away the same can happen and it's applauded

Hope your really not at Uni to have to have this explained to you!

[The Bear]

Even threatening someone can be considered assault, as long as they felt in danger of their safety.

To the fella behind me who sang ‘he left cos you’re sh1t’ when we played a league cup game there a few years ago …..

[Corky]

Eddie probably very annoyed his mate Jase didn't get there first like he usually does.

[st albans fox]

8 months for Toney means he’s allowed to train again from mid Jan 2024 

 

makes next season pretty tough for him as he can stay fit but theoretically he cannot take part in any footballing activities 

 

I wonder what happens if he goes to dubai for a few months and plays some non competitive games with local sides ??

Brentford will be looking for a short term replacement then in the summer .

 

Probably not bad timing as they have time to prepare .

But conveniently right before the summer break, so feasibly he misses just under half a season. 

Should've started it from pre-season to hit it home harder.

[Md9]

that will put a few teams of buying him in the summer then as I bet spurs probably looking for someone once kane goes and arsneal would need a forward

He can train in 4 months time.

He loved it there too and they loved him. 

 

If he went back to Luton and we got them in one of the cups and they sang 'he left cause you're shit' - one it would be Karmic and two it would be true 

[Super_horns]

Presume he wasn’t accused of betting for his own side otherwise that could be match fixing?
