I’m trying to agree with this but…if it’s your own team is 1-0 up in in a huge game or England 1-0 up in a massive game with 10 minutes to play we’d more than likely be applauding it, unless you’re Scottish or something

I'm not sure (not about whether I'm Scottish - which 50% of me is!) if I'd want to see my team go to the levels we have seen from Arsenal. In fact I know I wouldn't. Be brave. Trust your ability. Keep the ball. Ok don't rush like a loony to take every throw in/goal kick but also don't cheat like a cheaty cheating cheater

Ah yes, you are correct, I mis-read earlier! I thought they’d said they would donate their share as well. Either way, as you say, they’ll make a lot more from the game being at SJP. Hope they can raise the money to get it sorted.

Every team uses the art of time wasting and it is an art.
The refs have to play their part.
Is the six second rule still live for keepers ?
As it never gets used.

I still feel it's unusual for EVERY player in the team to be cheaty cheating cheaters
Seriously though - the players who are there to break up play will do it. The GK will push the limits of time-wasting as will most on throw ins etc BUT the blatant cheating and feigning injury from the bench to the manager to the physio to every player on the pitch - that's different level stuff.

I’m looking forward to Arteta taking over at City. Also don’t see City being sanctioned beyond a fine and a transfer ban.

I think Allardyce was spot on here about how it will go.
Can't see a relegation happening at all.

Should be relegated given the amount of offences but they won't. Big points deduction and fine but they will already have enough points to still be safe
The PL set the template with their actions against Forest and Everton. I've said it previously, no deductions should take place once the season has begun. Every team should know where they stand on day 1 of the season. They shouldn't mess teams about part way through (it affects all teams, not just the ones getting a deduction)

Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
The problem ( and I am not saying he is wrong) with this, is it is a comment that has come from someone who was taking backhanders within the game of football. So to me it’s like having marriage advice off Zsa Zsa Gabor.
I have said it before. Do I think City have broken FFP rules. I am positive they have. But they were put in place to protect the top clubs. Not clubs like “Liddell Citeh”. One of the biggest problems that the premier league has is that they have in place rules to limit spending, which is against some EU laws. So the rules “ they have broke”. Are they illegal.I don’t know.

Ah - so it’s a case of because we think the rules are unfair it’s ok to break them
Do you think it’s unfair for a club to be able to spend more money than anyone else because they have an oil state to back them ?
Or is that fair on all teams
Football ownership / spending has not been fair for 40-50 years. It's just a matter of who the money has changed.

Jack Walker and Blackburn were a classic example
Frankly, Man Utd were always the richest club around. Liverpool have been big spenders since the 80's / early 90's. Blackburn are a great one off example but different clubs have dominated through rich owners for many years now. This is not new, just the people behind the money and the clubs they are at have changed.
