    Leicester get away with PSR breach. Crazy reasons too. I have always worried club lawyers will always outhink prem lawyers and find ways to escape the rules. Here is an example.

    Has it been mentioned elsewhere that Steve Bruce is the new Blackpool manager?
    Edit: looks like it has been on the New Head Coach thread.

    Don Goodman. I know he played for us but…are we just another team he played for? Every time I read about what he’s saying about Sunderland there never seems to be any real connection there and he’s talking about us as just another football team. Have I got that right or does he have a bit of a soft spot for one of his former teams?

    Ignoring the tone, which comes over as someone wanting any club to be able to spend whatever they want...this is a very good writeup on the mess of PSR here, explains how Birmingham will likely get away with it due to massive differences in the rules from Premier League, championship and L1/L2 spending.

    Adam Guest said: “It's a great headache. But seeing Browne and Jobe are both off on international duty, I think one of them will be rested.”


    yeah I think that’s a sensible answer

    Really good listen that one. Dan comes across very well. Doesn’t say 110% or any of the usual footballer guff/platitudes.

    That involves movement of millions of pounds and legal things etc . Govt time better spent on easily taking £100’s of pounds off pensioners

    Yeah well said mate
    So simple to take off pensioners
    When there not physically able to earn money
    Just let them sit in the chair and rot
    And don’t get me on about council tax
    It’s a disgrace pensioners should pay it at all
