    Why did we play with illegal sponsor?

    Of course they do. Thanks for all the insight.

    Why did we play with illegal sponsor?

    Thanks for that. So arbitration would go to a court in London, who would normally go in favour of UK Law. Have I got that right?

    Why did we play with illegal sponsor?

    But wouldn't Debet (or whatever the parent company is) be wanting the contract under their country's laws, so there'd have to be some compromise as to which laws applied? That's why I thought there must be some sort of "international law" to deal with that situation. It must be a common issue...

    Why did we play with illegal sponsor?

    I'm unclear on this as it is still legal for us to have them as sponsor despite them not being able to trade in the UK. Surely it's up to the Gaming Commission to PROVE that they are trading illegally and not just claim it. Otherwise there's no force majeure. The other question is whether...

    I thought Ginger danced with the 'hamster eater' aka Freddie Starr.

    January Transfer Window

    Not according to the Scousers. They should be alloiwed to get away scott free because it's not their first time.

    Cunha suspension?

    To clarify, by saying its more comparable to Cantona's I was thinking more in terms of the assaultee (??) not being part of the game. It certainly doesn't seem to be as forecful (although I suppose the initial forearm could be said to be worse simply because it was from behind). Thinking more...

    Cunha suspension?

    Surely the main difference with Kulusevski and Lavia is that that was bewteen 2 players during the course of a game. Cunha's incident was against someone who wasn't even involved in the game, (I know he was an Ipswich "official" but still not really anything to do with the game) and was also...

    Summer 2024 transfer window thread.

    I think the tweak with this is that Larsen (and I imagine most if not all transactions of this type) isn't actually a straight obligation. Its conditional on certain conditions being met, and therefore doesn't become an obligation until those conditions are met (e.g playong a certain nukmber of...

    Summer 2024 transfer window thread.

    This bit sounds like many of our players who improve significantly whenever they're not playing :) And I do agree about Kelleher as well. He is a very good keeper, and doesn't carry the same baggage around as Ramsdale or Johnstone

    Apparently Team GB have a 50 year old Skateboarder :eek: in the Olympics, so the skateboard may not help.

    To be fair, it's all a bit strange. He apparently got banned for reporting the bribe to the German FA.

    Today’s Games 2023-2024

    Absolutely, so conflicted just then. Appealed for the penalty, then realised Ronaldo would take it and thought " no ref it's a dive"

    Please don't do that.:anguished: I didn't realise it was a quote from last year, and nearly had a heart attack just at the possibility being raised !!!!:)

    Summer 2024 transfer window thread.

    Do Wolves have any say in it? I thought if he hasn't got a professional contract we only get a compensation figure. And isn't he too young to sign pro forms?

    Today’s Games 2023-2024

    I'd say about 12 yards out from the goalline, but quite wide on an angle so maybe 18-20 yards in total.

    Blue Card

    Yes, it would change everything. Brentford would just resort to time wasting and delaying tactics at every opportunity instead of . . . Oh hold on .

    Blue Card

    I agree, but that simple thinking is beyond the "brains" that run the game.

    Blue Card

    I think the 10-yard thing in football was rescinded because defending teams were actually able to use it to their advantage. If a free kick was awarded in a dangerous position, say 25 yards out, the defenders would deliberatley get it moved 10 yards forwards, so that it would be impossible to...
