Just saw that.. Not sure how I feel on it to be honest.

It it shouldn't carry the same ban as a terrible tackle... But then had he hit the red would they have reduced to 1 game? No.. So why different that it's an opposition player?

tbh it wasn't that bad but rules are rules and it's classed as violent conduct which carries 3 game ban.

Some additional points:

Man Utd's wage bill increased £35m last year. That doesn't even include Di Maria and Falcao yet.

In the same period Man City's wage bill fell by £28m.

15? I don't see how you get that many without including kids, and then the number is higher.

Did it drop so much that you aren't still the biggest spenders?

It's a good point I guess, what stops them 'contracting' all those employees to another 'company ' to avoid them going against the wider business' payroll.

As in being employed by FSG instead of Liverpool FC?

Yeah like I said, including kids.

Ah right, so when a football club announce it`s wage bill they only include players, got it, a way round ffp

Actually I may be wrong about it being players wages only - I just couldn't see the point of publishing wage tables which include the likes of groundsman and admin wages etc. - but every English club has it's finances recorded and registered at Companies House as a public record, so it's very easy to check.

So we loaned him out f.o.c and continued to pay his full wage

Sunderland are to try a new system next year, bringing in a new manager ever 5-10 games. They hope to win the title doing so
