RE: Thread to talk about football and wednesday in general - Imre varadi - 24-05-2025
They can't spend that 220million though this is the problem ...Leeds for example will only be allowed to spend 60m on players ...it's utter corrupt bullshit !
I mean they can spend all the 220million break the rules like forest and Everton then spend half the season paying of more bills in court and hopefully only getting a 5pt deduction !
Leicester played this game also while bouncing between leagues and are now looking at a 15pt deduction to start there season ! It's effing madness nobody can compete unless you have a youth team like sir cheat Ferguson had and they help you survive ! Look at the state of Ipswich ffs ..ground heaving everybody on board and eff all !
This offcourse also makes things perfect for criminals like deaf John ..as he would only need to splash 50 million on Wages and players and pocket the other 170 million ready for laundering!

L**ds will have a chance of staying up but can’t see Burnley or Sunderland managing it. Ironically both Birmingham and Wrexham will have to cut their cloth over what they spent in League 1 as the Championship has different rules. Assuming no points deductions, the three coming down will be favorites to go up, can’t see any of the teams who finished 5th or below suddenly getting 90 plus points.
RE: Thread to talk about football and wednesday in general - Imre varadi - 25-05-2025
Leicester are getting it with both barrels from the EFL who are far less forgiving than the premiership thing is it probably won't happen untill the season is underway as usual .
RE: Thread to talk about football and wednesday in general - Statesideowl - 25-05-2025
The Championship is bloated with mediocre teams now.
Wednesday were awful to watch all season. To finish mid-table despite being awful tells you plenty about the quality of this league.
I can only imagine how poor the teams below us must have been.
Most clubs can't compete financially as the big boys will just outbid the minnow clubs, potentially making the 5m player go for around 8-9M instead.
There are now entire teams full of Johnson's & Smith's at Championship level as a consequence of cost cutting measures leaving squads with reduced quality.
Soon the Championship and L1 will blur together as there will be little difference between them in quality with a chasm opening up between the EPL & Championship.
It's already too late, the big boys and their greed have destroyed football.

The Blunts, Burnley and Luton EACH received £49m in parachute payments this season, which is 55% of EPL broadcast revenue. As the Blunts didn't get promoted they will get a second payment which is 45% of EPL broadcast revenue. Not a bad reward for failure.

Charlton win the Pub League playoffs.
RE: Thread to talk about football and wednesday in general - Imre varadi - 25-05-2025
Charlton round up our league fixtures for next season.
Nice big away end for our fans to fill if we don't get them in some crappy midweek fixture .
Wilder conducted himself well after the game yesterday infact he was so upset and depressed I nearly felt sorry for him.
For me if he stays and the players he's got stay they will do a Leeds and piss the league ! But will the board have the bottle to keep him on ! Initially with there shit fans attendances will be down and if they have a bad start it could all turn nasty at the shithole ! The pig fans are only ever on board when they are winning ..it's always been the case ! They've all turned off social media for a while as well as again they only so called banter when they are winning as well.
Just remember no matter how bad we are we will never be as bad as that little club !

Will Still appointed Southampton manager.
RE: Thread to talk about football and wednesday in general - Imre varadi - 25-05-2025
I think we should get some news next week as the 2 week holiday period for the staff is over today.
I wasn't impressed with bannan and his comment yesterday either ..you'd think after never winning a derby game ever for us he'd keep his mouth shut especially as this will get used against him.next season ...silly little prick ! In a perfect world wed retire him and move on with a a new midfield but we are stuck with him the same as deaf John !
RE: Thread to talk about football and wednesday in general - Imre varadi - 25-05-2025
Well that's that then the premiership has anti climaxed boring load of shite !
Everyone down to forest in Europe in some form or the other and Brighton will sneak in if Chelsea win next week in the conference league which is the only big game they've actually had to play in real Betis !! Infact the conference league is so bad championship teams would be in with half a chance depending on the draw !
Games to come
Wimbledon Wallsall tomorrow
Chelsea Betis Wednesday
Southend Oldham next Sunday for some reason unknown to any kids of rational reason !
Then it's the start of the biggest load of bollocks competition in football the world club championship which makes the international nations league look respectable !
Hence no summer football to be bothered about whatsoever !!!
The Rugby for me is as bad as it's the lions tour and no England tour.
