And in other news Manchester United look like appointing Michael Carrick as the permanent manager. Heard a bit on the radio yesterday about hiw well...
@werdermouth - Thanks for that an interesting read. I found the conclusion unsurprising “Legally, this case is a vital test of whether English fo...
@powmillnaemore -o yes that will be poetic justice
@pedro - although as one of the parties, then presumably the EFL could also appeal?
@selwynoz - which is the dilema and why I suspect that nothing will happen until after the game with Southampton and Hull. As to the fine, then it sho...
@selwynoz - option 1 would result in the EFL losing money and would be unfair to the supporters of both teams that have presumably now bought tickets ...
@k-p-in-spain - so in which case it would have been so easy for them to deny it all and say nothing to do with them.
@k-p-in-spain There have been suggestions that the individual identified is/was no longer an employee at the time of the incident but were that to ...
@k-p-in-spain - sounds about right…….. I remember giving evidence in a court case when the judge had told the jury beforehand that he would adjourn at...
@werdermouth - that is far too sensible an idea when there is so much money at stake………..for the EFL of course. Football has ceased to be a sport fo...
@clive-hurren - But we know that they won’t throw the book at them - maybe we should set up a sweepstake for what the end result will be with the mone...
@powmillnaemore - sounds about right although you may have missed the bit where Boro are docked 3 points for daring to bring to the attention of the ...
@martin-bellamy - I don’t disagree with your points. If there was any justice then we would be all booking our tickets to Wembley right now as Southam...
@k-p-in-spain - It’s worse than that Jim! Every possible solution that is floated, is almost a non starter and disadvantages the other players invo...
Was talking with some invigilator colleagues this morning about the unholy mess. One comment echoed what Mr Gill used to say “the table doesn’t lie” a...
@pedro - rr retrospective punishment - isnt that what happened with Swindon in 1990?
IT is one almighty mess as Martin, Pedro and ExMil all say with differing solutions and views. Whatever the Panel come up with, one or more teams wi...
@pedro - The thing is that, to some extent, it is of their own making. Have a rule in place without any mention of the penalty for breaking said rul...
@werdermouth - I think we have to accept that nothing will happen until after the play off final and that the issue will be fudged. If Soton win th...
@clive-hurren - That ball person ( he was no boy) should face some disciplinary action as I have reason to believe that he may be a member of the Sou...
@k-p-in-spain - some of the comments on the BBC are interesting in as much as they say it is much a do about nothing because the game was won on the p...
@pedro - mmm - classic deflection on a politicians level! How convenient that he can’t comment because of the investigation- as KP said, they have bro...
@martin-bellamy - given that I spent 21 years in Hull and my kids were born there (Boro supporters) - I will definitely be rooting(not the Australian ...
@werdermouth - even their players made a joke of it at the end - a picture in the Times of their captain mimicking binoculars with his hands! Rather p...
@philip-of-huddersfield - No blame on Fry, he was dead on his feet and couldn’t summon up the energy to reach the ball - no complaints from me on the...
@forever-dormo yup - There is VAR in the final so why not the semi final? i thought the ref was a bit inconsistent overall - the foul before their goa...
@stircrazy -agree - we were far from disgraced but just didn’t have the depth in the squad to make a difference. Hopefully KH will be able to get hi...
@stircrazy - super sub Sarmiento!
@werdermouth agree about next goal - we need to break our habit of only winning one half of a game and come out fighting
It was a really really stupid and soft free kick we gave away from which they scored. IT is going to be a long long second half and I am not sure a...
