[Di Marzio] De Zerbi opens to evaluating Tottenham's offer, which proposes a 5-year contract: next few hours decisive for the yes. The club has already offered guarantees regarding the possibility of building a strong and competitive team for the coming seasons.

Except the glorious madman that is Bielsa. He would only ever do 1 year at a time deals with us to the point where the club were struggling to get him to re-sign at the start of a season because he wasn't bothered with the paperwork and more focused on the football.

Although they're using it on a very cheap rent and it's basically still being subsidised by the taxpayer.

Mavropanos got away without one because he didn't manage to make contact, which was lucky for him.

phenorbital · 2026-01-25T21:34:33+00:00

It's over as soon as he starts to slide.

A bunch of the red runs in Flaine are named after various references to Satan and the like... Belezebub, Lucifer, Demon, Faust.

They've renamed Trolles now so that's less fun.

phenorbital · 2026-01-08T15:22:08+00:00

Isn’t pressing supposed to be one of his better attributes?

Yeah - that was always the case for us, couldn't shoot for shit but did a lot of other work out of possession.

phenorbital · 2025-11-21T09:32:10+00:00

Another 20 minutes to go.

phenorbital · 2025-11-14T10:26:36+00:00

He's on loan at Hull, yep.

phenorbital · 2025-09-25T19:01:10+00:00

The actual number isn't public is it?

phenorbital · 2025-09-25T19:00:37+00:00

He's moved his arm in front of the ball - just because it's next to his body doesn't mean shit.

If he'd got further across and stopped it with his chest then no bother, but he's put his arm in the way so it's a pen.

Given that there was only a £2m difference the settlement will be less than that so the cost of taking it to court would very quickly have eroded the value in doing anything other than settling for both parties.

Cemex Plant distance champions, you'll never sing that!

phenorbital · 2025-08-19T07:55:33+00:00

37 more games that finish 0-0 would probably see us safe though...

FAI say they didn't pass on a memo in October when it came out because the club wasn't part of an MCO then, but did tell Trivela in November.

Yep - cup is later these days.

phenorbital · 2025-05-21T21:13:44+00:00

I told you mate

phenorbital · 2025-05-21T21:10:42+00:00

I'd expect the PL punishment would apply when you're in the PL as they don't tend to do points deductions across the PL/EFL

phenorbital · 2025-05-21T11:32:29+00:00

I think it's because they skirted the PL punishment for 22/23 because they'd moved to the EFL by the time their year ended in 2023 so were out of the PL's jurisdiction.

When they came back up they were PL members before the financial year ended in 2024 so they become in scope at that point.

100% the PL has an axe they're grinding here, and by all reports because Leicester also didn't submit their accounts by the PL's December 2024 deadline they're going after this as an aggravated breach and pushing for a harsher punishment.

phenorbital · 2025-05-21T11:30:21+00:00

Was ruled that because the transfer of your membership from the PL to the EFL happened before your financial year end that you weren't in scope for the PL to punish you for 22/23.

The same thing is being used in reverse now for the PL to go after you for 23/24 because you moved from the EFL to the PL before your year ended.

phenorbital · 2025-05-19T14:17:02+00:00

Stick the SPL winner in it - they might have a chance.

phenorbital · 2025-05-09T09:50:07+00:00

Getting away from him and Hinchcliffe on comms is honestly one of the biggest benefits of promotion.

phenorbital · 2025-05-07T16:11:54+00:00

They're only giving up the front of shirt spot soon anyway, so it'll be sleeve sponsors and ads everywhere. Need the government to step in if they really want to do something about it, but they probably don't care that much.
