I mean it’s a fair point

man Leicester getting away with cheating FFP (or whatever we call it now) bodes super well for any kind of repercussions against City. i’m sure they’ll have super expensive lawyers finding loopholes all over the shop

Wasn’t theirs like one charge of breaking spending rules? City have 115 charges being referred to an independent commission.

that’s my point. if they can’t even make one charge stick due to a technicality then City are blatantly not going to have any real issues

I could see them getting off with a lot maybe but not all of the 115! The independent commission will look like a joke and not be trusted again.

Villa released Champions League pricing:

cheaper than Oasis at least :smiley:

Chatting with a Newcastle fan. £55 for Champions League when they were in last season.

Scandalous!

Yup and was 70euro for mine at Parc de Princes

Going back to this, it’s an absolute piss take and the club should be ashamed. Great way to ruin the good vibes from last season and anger the whole fanbase. It’s not like the cash from this is going to be enough to fix the FFP issues or buy a world class player

Just another cash grab from the same club that decided to keep the gambling sponsor on the shirts when most of the league were trying to move away from that

Disgusting ennit. Chris Heck is a scumbag.

Told my lad yesterday he could pick 1 game to go to and I would do my best to get tickets for us. He chose Juventus - not Bayern Munich?!

Another thing that pisses me off is I pay £40 a year for my club membership and £20 for his kids membership. The membership basically gets you early access to tickets when they go on sale.

If you don’t have memberships and wait for tickets to go on general sale, it’s unlikely to get 2 seats together - which is really important when you’re taking an 8yo to a game! So that’s £60 a year the club get out of me before i’ve bought a ticket.

Fucks sake apparently we’ve now doubled the price for disabled parking spaces at matches. Earning us approx £12k in extra revenue per game. What an absolute shower of Michael Fabricants.

That is top, top drawer stuff.

There’s so much shit flying around at the minute with Lee Carsley not singing the national anthem, Rice and Grealish being Irish and so on, I get the feeling tonight’s match is going to have quite a bit of needle to it and I can see it being a banana skin for England because of the external pressures. Like I’ve got a feeling it’s going to be nasty with the fans as well.

Whatcha mean?

Loving this “big role for Grealish” England squad. No Jack, no party.

Yeah, Grealish in the starting line up with a free role and England haven’t passed back to Pickford once! Playing attacking football and have a goal!

We talked about this many times but Southgate made his hatred of Jack no secret. Stoked to see him get a big part even if its just for this
