Not sure how it gets rowed back. Apparently there's a 3bn loan at 2-3%, and I don't think there'll be a 14-day cooling off period

It's a political open goal, isn't it?

They seem to have done a good job of stopping it from leaking before yesterday though.

What the hell is this

Never ever breathe

In the 1930s

Technically you don't get a refund at all, at least not immediately - you get a credit against the cost of next season's ST price, but the amount of that credit is less than 1/19 of the cost of the ST. I don't know if you get some money back if you don't renew.

Only Connect semi-final night.

Surely this would have been foreseeable when we signed him. What was the point, if it's going to take weeks or months to get his fitness to the required level (leaving aside whether he is any good)?

Well yes but I kind of hoped he might be the sort of player who could stop us being at that low ebb, at least a bit, as opposed to joining in so wholeheartedly with the whole "low ebb" project

I think this is absolutely the last thing they need to be told

I agree. And I'm not 100% sure but it looked like the foul was on the line, making it a pen, yet here we all are saying that VAR has done us over.

We could actually test the "We could have played until midnight and still not scored" thing

He'll make the training run on time.

I'm afraid, Cobs, that that line is not followed by the chorus. It goes straight into the second verse ("Late sky..."). I haven't completely lost hope of hearing a crowd song based on a Sprout lyric, although if it didn't happen with Jordan Henderson I fear it will never happen.

You offer infrared instead of sun You offer bubble gum You give me Aaron Long, four in the morning

That guidance has been updated though: "Accidental handball by an attacking player (or team-mate) is only penalised if it occurs ‘immediately’ before a goal or clear goal-scoring opportunity. “If an attacking player accidentally touches the ball with their hand or arm and the ball then goes to another attacking player and the attacking team immediately scores, this is a handball offence. “It is not an offence if, after an accidental handball, the ball travels some distance (pass or dribble) and/or there are several passes before the goal or goal-scoring opportunity.” In you scenario the ball will have traveled "some distance" after the accident handball so the handball is not considered to be an offence.

All of this, except I think you could go back as far as the Watford result (and maybe the Atletico game too, although we played well) rather than just the Villa result.

Who's going to tell him?
