Howling at nearly a 50 year wait between our two fictional european cups. 
 

what a clever robot 

 

Yet the scabs only have to wait 15 years between their next two?

He's already worn the red and white stripes. I reckon if he disavowed Southampton's claim on Bilbao's strip, that might be enough to secure him MLF status. 

He used to score plenty against us, no doubt that was in the name of Sunderland.

Semi automated offside checks coming to the PL in the autumn. Why these dickheads voted to reject them previously is anyone's guess, but at least we won't have to suffer the drawing of the lines for too much longer. 

 

Instead we can look forward to a computer deciding that someone is 1 pixel offside.

Quicker though isn’t it? Seems to work better then some muppet drawing lines on screen with a fucking ruler

He's almost as insufferable as Owen, a feat I thought unachievable. 

He’s as miserable as Lawrenson but he’s at least a bit more clued up / does his homework more than Owen. Which, admittedly, isn’t saying much. It is, after all, their very well remunerated job.

Right, anyone know if this bullshit is better or worse for us then the existing psr rules?

 

 

Not entirely sure but based on 2022/23

 

85% of our turnover (£250m) was around £212m, we spent £187m on wages (which appear to be included) which would only leave £25m for additional players (inc. their wages, agent fees and transfer fees) assuming nothing else changes.

 

We're also allowed to spend 85% of profit from player sales, plus the extra revenue from the CL games.

 

In short, it's probably no better than it was previously, but it's slightly better than the UEFA model.

 

Seems shite - we want the luxury tax or they can fuck off IMO.

31 seconds faster on average apparently. So not that much quicker on average, but should hopefully stop the really long waits.

i like the idea that it's automated, so it least it removes any bias to favour the team with the right badge
