Just a thought: maybe learn how the English language works before you post Wait, that was your retort? The sort of response most people above the age of eight would find cringeworthy? ****ing hell, you do need some happiness in your sad, lonely life don't you?
...and while the Man Utd fan we don't miss on this board spends fifteen minutes licking his wounds before making yet another response that makes him look like an utter cretin, here's a story that's just popped up Sky Sports are reporting that we have received a letter from beIN Sports urging us to block Newcastle being sold to Mohammed Bin Salman's investment firm not because of the human rights abuses, murders of journalists, or general genocide - but because of Saudi Arabia's policy of illegally streaming beIN's Premier League games on an industrial scale just to spite beIN Sports - and that's no exaggeration, as not only is the Saudi service called beoutQ, but when you look at the service's logos side by side it's really obvious what's going on please log in to view this image please log in to view this image ...yes, that's as close to "side by side" as I can get, as the available options were either a massive beIN logo and a tiny beout one, or ones of comparable size but 40% of the image was a completely unnecessary transparent border The thing is, while there is certainly a conversation to be had about beoutQ considering what's been dug up about it genuinely sounds like something out of a James Bond film (albeit a Brosnan one, and Brosnan ones were by and large ****) it really does say something about the state of football that a club is being asked to block a Saudi state-funded takeover of a club not because of the laundry list of reasons Amnesty International could provide for us, but because the Saudis having closer ties to the Premier League could **** up the next rights negotiations You might notice that this post has significantly more worth than whatever pathetic response Diego vomited forth while I was typing. Can somebody else take the lame puppy to the vet to have it put down, please?
It does make some sense though, unfortunately. The Premier League has passed dictators, blatant criminals and arms dealers, but this group are specifically hitting the league's profits. They don't care about morality and human rights, but they do care about money.
They're going to be so pissed off when they realise this was how the Premier League was decided... ...or this...
Anyone who has sky...go to 401 ... goons away to wigan 2010...****ed up a 2 nil lead in final 20 mins....being played live and is into last 20 mins
The French have joined the Dutch and have ****ed off the season: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52460468
As they said it applies to the top two divisions that certainly means that, like the Eredivisie, relegation is off the agenda ...which reminds me, anyone else hear the story of Alan Pardew asking Den Haag to cough up his bonus for avoiding relegation almost as soon as the season was voided? What a classy move on his part
They should demand he repayhis wages...after all...if a season is voided it mesns there was no season...therefore he hasn't managed them
They're voting on three possible options, apparently. 1) Points per game. 2) Return to the last full round of games, which is one back. 3) Go back to the halfway mark where everyone's played once. PSG would win the league and Toulouse would be relegated. There are slight changes to European places and the other relegation spots. Ligue 2 was very tight though, so I think the choice makes a big difference to the promotion places. PSG have also vowed to continue in the Champions League, even if they have to play abroad. Levy will be licking his lips.
