Good first half lads, enjoyed that.

That was bloody close from where I'm sat!

We can't keep this pace up for 90 minutes can we?

Hudson Odoi worries me, he was some player at Chelsea.

Is this the same Mangala that was at Man City? Let's hope he's still crao if it is.

Premier league isn't he? Needs VAR to make any decisions. His lino's are no help either.

Naughty Cam but I'm not seeing anything to fear here.

I'm sure I speak for everyone in wishing your lad a speedy and full recovery RA75.

I'm sure we will manage Miah.

Has this actually gone through or is their fax knackered again? No lowballing or anything?

He can't play on Friday anyway.

Thanks Arden, I knew there was a reason they vetoed it and you are spot on. You have a good memory!

So the council could be seen to be fair to both clubs / transparent I guess CSR.

The council were going to give city a 'bale out' Loan, the terms of which I can't remember as I was only 15 myself. They needed agreement from the scum who vetoed it leaving us to die and them, due to having no competition, free to take over Ashton Gate for pretty much nothing. I stand to corrected by our more senior members but that's how I remember it.

With all possible respect Miah, these aren't 'accusations', they actually happened. Dark, dark times for us tbh. I went to school not knowing if my club would still be in business when I came out that day. Yes, some of our fans went too far but, I would hope, if the boot was on the other foot, we wouldn't do everything we could to kill you off and try to profit from it.

Edited for accuracy Gol. They stuck the knife in and tried to kill us.

Bollocks WTGR, they tried to kill us off by blocking a bail out from the council then tried to steal the Gate. Bygones be bygones my arse! The only thing I want 'gone' is those treacherous bastards! Yes, I lived through '82.

Lie down in a darkened room BR. Please don't take my post as having any sympathy for them, **** em!

Bugger me, that's awful, for them. Hilarious for us tho!

Gaschat is bloody hilarious tonight! OTIB ️

Ignore me then!

On the subject of the Blades, and given they'll receive parachute payments if they come down, which set of FFP rules apply to them, PL or EFL?

Cheers Exiled, much appreciated. None of that bodes well for the surely needed fairness to all by treating clubs differently for, possibly, the same things. Stinks of favouritism.

Thanks fellas, not as black and white as described by some then? To check I now understand it, please tell me if the below is correct? Everton have been flouting the rules for some time and are being punished accordingly, but, setting a precedent. Convenient that any potential deduction from Chelsea would be applied in the close season, then appealed for 25-26, plus I would assert that Forest haven't done anything wrong as they spent on promotion. As for Man City, proving anything would mean a huge legal fight and with MC having a seemingly bottomless cash reserve......If proven, they are in deep dodo.
