Hound I've no love for Wigan but from the bits I understand, I really hope they don't go down.

The statement yesterday from the EFL basically said they are getting the 12 point reduction. Force Majeure is Wigan's only route out of this but that will be difficult to prove.

Surely the bookies wouldn`t pay out on Wigan`s relegation if there was the slightest suspicion? We are talking about bets placed in the Phillipines...... So because it`s the far east they just pay out on big bets without checking, fair enough. Not quite the same regualted business out there as we h...

If it’s true offers have been received for Swift of £3.5 mill.This is bloody insulting and Howe should tell them to treble their offer or bugger off.Why however anyone would think he could play in the Prem escapes me. So you say we should ge triple what they have reportedly offered and then say he ...

It sadly won't help Wigan avoid a points deduction; the EFL's role is only a ratification - they have signed off loads of dodgy owners like Bury/Bolton last season, if there was any recourse clubs would have gone there in the past I'm not so sure....if there is a gambling angle in this and they giv...

The Stoke run-in does not look good....but many of the teams down the bottom have to play each other. Wouldn't like to predict what will happen and it is all bunching up at the moment..... I also don't think Wigan will get a points deduction. There is too much controversy over this administration a...

The latest rumour is that there is a massive bet in the Phillipines on Wigan getting relegated...this came from a Wigan fan who recorded Rick Parry saying this - the Wigan fan lives next door to him and the recording is all over Twitter........ Is this genuine?? https://mobile.twitter.com/oSimplySt...

I also don't think Wigan will get a points deduction. There is too much controversy over this administration and whether it is was actually needed or not... Well if that is the case then a decision needs to be taken within the next week because teams down the bottom are basing their survival fight ...

I don't know a lot about the circumstances of Wigan's administration - but if the situation is COVID-related, I have a bit of sympathy with the amount of the deduction. Doesn't sound like it is related to Covid and it appears there may be some illegal goings on....the EFL have some answering to do ...

Snowflake Royal and maybe cash in on Ejaria.

How can we cash in on a player we don't own? Yes, we have an option to buy but we haven't exercised that option yet.

I'm going to throw Jem Karacan into the mix....haven't read the whole topic so he might already be in it.....

tilehurstender 1 up I hear!

Nicely worked move, Meite across to to Joao and a simple finish inside the 6 yard box.

Surprise surprise ifollow has died. For all of us who are long time users of this tinpot over priced crap this is as inevitable as a Boris uturn. Twats. Unbelievable! Stupid system refuses to let you sign in! Wonder how long this'll take to sort out. No doubt the system can't handle the extra load ...

Logged in about 20 minutes and playing on my tv, no issues so far.....

Theres no need to have midwek games kicking off late unless it is for TV coverage. There is no rush hour to worry about for getting the fans there....

Hound and we're skint

I don't think that is the case, we are just having to work within FFP rules. The Chinese have never shown an unwillingness to put money in.

FFP rules are going to have to be relaxed to allow owners to inject cash to keeps clubs afloat.

Centralisation - Are there services that all clubs provide which could be merged into one big contract at a cheaper cost per club than all having individual contracts and maybe done better as a result? - Maybe Stewarding, Ticket sales, merchandise, Online stores, that sort of thing. In fact, even i...
