Can't believe he did the stutter again 😲. I think I'd be having a word if I was the manager.

Regarding Palace, do they have plans to upgrade the ground, expand etc? It's a fabulous atmosphere but the matchday income, lack of, must be hitting them,

I wonder if a bit of an increase is worth it nowadays. A 10,000 increase at £50 a ticket comes out at £9.5m over a season, less operating costs. Add in the mortgage payments on the build…

Most extension these days are to add a significant amount of corporate seats and boxes - they were expecting it to bring in up to £25mil a year extra

I'm looking at the stands and I can't see any boxes. There may be some, somewhere, but I can't see them. If there are some, there are not many. That's an important bit of income missing, it isn't just the extra, regular punters.

If it was just spectators alone, I agree with you. The build costs then would take decades to recover.

(Just seen @Arthur Wedge beat me to it)
 
I was down in Leeds today, fascinating seeing a one team city having their victory parade. Just Leeds fans absolutely everywhere, Glasgow would be a warzone

Didn’t expect anything, so I’ll take it. Sangaré and Anderson HAVE to start in Midfield against Leicester next weekend.

Up the Toon next weekend!
 
See that Madrid want Liverpool to let Trent leave his contract early so that he can play in the Club World Cup thing

Madrid can either pay a good amount or wait
It wouldn't affect many (if any) LFC games so not sure what the issue is. His contract is until 30 Jun so would need to release him end of May (ish)

Doesn’t really matter what games it affects - he has a contract until 30th June - he either honours that contract or they pay for an early release

If Madrid really want him that badly im sure they don’t mind getting their wallet out
