    Not sure what they'd do admittedly, but can't see them curtailing. We must be getting, what, about 8000 people streaming our games legally? There or there abouts at least. That's £40k a week (plus our away stream revenue so probably about £70k in reality ). Given that a lot of our newer players will likely be on about £2k a week it's covering a good few players wages. Take that away and we'd still need to pay their contracts, and I don't see where the money would come from. It would go from several being in trouble to pretty much all, whilst not helping anyone. I mean, if ten clubs go bust I'm not sure how you complete a season, but they'd have to try. Of course what we really need is some form of bail out, hopefully they can find some solution somewhere. If I was relying on the PL stepping up i wouldn't be confident mind.

    He's not.... but as a shareholder of Safc, the biggest club outside the PL by a million miles they're probably just bigging him up.

    He's officially a non-executive director but whether he's more "executive" now is the question. Like David Jones is also a non-executive director but is very clearly an executive director at the moment.

    Biggest joke going that situation. Very good player and attitude is Sam. Arsenal will even look silly for letting him go for 1m

    Mind you, if he'd stayed he wouldn't get a look in under Parkinson.

    That's everything to clubs handling and development of these aspects. Everything from 16s and up should be in sych, managers should be appointed and should help enforce the overall philosophy.

    Just all handled ****

    the club's future stripped away from it to fund the owner's gap in finances and maximise his return when flipping the club. Such a shame. I genuinely don't think Stewart Donald had bad intentions, I just think he didn't realise how much he was ruining us.

    A poster over the road is saying he has seen an email from somebody directly involved in the takeover saying its close. Now if thats true and you can only take him for his word alot of people who are claiming they have sources saying "nothing is happening" or "nothing is close" are being fed utter bollocks

    Meanwhile on RTG,

    Kittens Mittens: "Everyone knows my views on this."

    <laugh>

    No one else, on either board, uses that phrase as if everyone hangs on their every word.
