Other Clubs News Discussion Thread 2

Is what Arsenal are doing a new method in trying to get around FFP.

Sack enough staff to afford to pay players you couldn't afford otherwise.

I think this warrants a FA investigation.

Depends on what the staff do really. If they’re the ones negotiating the players salary perhaps they deserved the sack!

Jesting aside, scumbag move from a club with a stinking and rotten culture.

I'm glad it wasn't implemented before the Sheffield United home game

Why? Clearly not a goal cos it wasn't given . Seriously though, could that have been referred to VAR because it was a technology fool up.

 

[The Fear]

Genuinely pleased the PL have finally got in line with how FIFA intended VAR to be done. Well done (sarcasm intended and warranted for the arrogant pratts)

I would imagine the refs are relieved as well, I am quite sure they want the decisions to be right, will be pleased to be able to see the replays that all of us (apart from those at games back in the good old days when you could go live, remember that?!) get to see. As long as they don't hold things up for too long, it could be very good.

It will go something like this. Ref goes to consult monitor.

Ref to monitor: "Was my decision right?"

Monitor: silence

Ref to monitor: "I'll take that as a Yes".

That is basically whats been happening in Holland. The refs dont want to admit they've made a mistake

Yep, referees are the type of people who are never wrong, to some extent they have to be

Arsenal getting slated big-time in the "Guardian". Some of the BTL comments are excellent.

For what shall it profit a club, if it shall gain the whole world, and lose its own soul? You win together, you lose together and when your club that gives you that 90 minute haven from the employer that treats you like shit becomes that employer the game's a bogey.

League 1 & 2 have voted for a salary cap.

Should have more info within an hour I guess.

 

[Claret & Blue Blood]

So Arsenal are making 55 staff redundant whilst paying Ozil £350,000 per week for doing nothing and reportedly negotiating a new contract for Aubameyang which will be worth £250,000 per week.

Hmmm.

Manure also letting people ģo too
