    It is a bribe to delay a European Super League, it won't stop it.

    Didn't they already open part of the stadium to show the SuperbOwl? Might be worth considering it for other events.
    Hosting boxing matches and showing other sports events during the buildup seems like a no-brainer, for example.

    Given we should be able to do it without negatively affecting the playing surface in any way, the only limit would be staffing the damn place, and getting the appropriate licenses and such I suppose.

    Really sad story that Horacio Sala has died of a heart attack aged 58 just three months after his son Emiliano died.

    30 players signed very few were complete failures Lopez was only on loan, of the rest I would suggest that at least half of them have been successful to some degree - Yedlin, N'Jie, and N'koudou got very few chances, Stambouli & Capoue may have been discarded a little quickly but I don't think either of them (or the first 3) were of a standard to really make it with us - Fazio & Chriches could be considered failures, but they both do OK in serie A so they weren't suited to the premier league. Paulinho and Soldado were good players but for whatever reason it didn't work, and Janssen is in the last chance saloon, but like Soldado before him he has retained the support of the fans.

    In the end if 50% of the players you sign are relatively successful you are doing something right, it's also worry as we are expecting to 5/6 players in the summer and we really need them all to work out, the reality is that if we sign 6 and 4 of them do well from day one we will have done very good business

    Not sure which thread this fits better under, but the response is the same...... WTAF!
    Montenegro racism: England's Danny Rose 'lost for words' after Uefa issue punishment - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48072307

    A single game to be played behind closed doors and a €20k fine! Complete feckin' joke and never going to stop racism in the sport if the authorities continue to play at combating it. <doh>

    20190426_224230.png Quiz time.

    To the nearest £50 how much is the cost of the ticket advertised above for the Spurs v Ajax CL match.
    This is being sold by an official club seller as advertised on the club website.

    Has a comfy seat...<laugh>

    Mrs B wouldn't talk to me for a year...

    I'm watching in the pub with my brother...who has a ticket....and has given it to his Mrs, who is watching the match. <yikes>

    I haven't asked him what the **** he has done to bring about such a set of circumstances......the mind boggles!
