Yes that is sad. Those types of industries were more than just work -often supported a whole community on a variety of levels. Social clubs, football teams, cricket teams, table tennis teams etc. Not to mention the socialisation of young men in the company of older men who would show them (usually) how to behave.

I guess also in those days there was little else to do except kick a ball against a wall in a backstreet somewhere. Now, far too many other distractions often involving a phone or computer. (edit to self -stop it or you'll be talking about jumpers for goalposts next....)

edit -and as for getting a ref -why on earth would any sane person do it?

I remember those days, when lads wanted to be football players rather  than managers.

Man Utd were battered in that half. 

so poor they are. 

Can't see Ratcliffe keeping Ten Hag next season, not with with the new club management coming in. Wouldn't surprise me if they went for Thomas Frank from Brentford as their replacement for him

pointless. Can't speak English and seems to have no interest in learning English. 

He is way out of their reach. 

Ten Hag need a reaction second half from his players now

Everton deducted a further two points for another FFP breach.

The punishment was reduced from the requested 5 points and amongst the reasons for this was they’d already had a points deduction this reason.

Surely a second breach should bring a bigger punishment rather than a lesser one??

Of course, we still await Manchester City’s punishment…

I dont quite understand it fully, but had they failed FFP based on an individual year's P&L I would agree with you.

But as it's over a 3 year period, 2 of the years which are contributing to this recent 'fail' are also 2 of the years which made up the previous 'fail'. I think that is taken into account. Plus was part of the points deduction originally not for trying to cover it up or being uncooperative first time?

Ah, that does make sense 👍

I don’t know the answer to your question but what I do know is I’m happy with any mitigation that keeps them above Burnley 😄

Ah, dear old Kenneth Wolstenholme, how I wish he was still commentating, only mentioned who was on the ball mostly and never wittered on about who had done what or when nor who was interested in signing which player.

You only have to listen to that tosspot Neville, mumbling away to his mate sat next to him in the commentary box. He should never be allowed to co-commentate on a Man Ure game either.

Man City's charges are from years ago whilst Everton and Forest charges are from last season. Rumours are Everton face more punishment for this season finances next season. Also where is the Everton's owner and what is the latest with the takeover aswell?

Palace deserved this win for me, yes Liverpool have had some chances but very poor finishing cost them, Palace should have score 3 or 4 in the first half.

watching the west ham game.the hammers are mirrored in moyes personality,a dull man playing dull football with dull tactics

Moyes's teams have always been the same. He ain't changing. I listened to Rio Ferdinand talk about his time at United and the way he was as United Manager 

West Ham star George Earthy suffers horror injury just three minutes into his debut as medics rush on to help | The Sun

Hope he is ok

Adam Wharton was really good again today in their win at Anfield. It seems like he has added another dimension to his game with some diligent defensive work to go with his undoubted attacking flair.

Watching Arsenal and Liverpool throwing away points today, if you’d have put £10 accumulator on 

Plymouth to beat Leicester 6/1

Blackburn to beat Leeds 8/1

Palace to beat Liverpool 10/1

Villa to beat Arsenal 9/1

You’d have won £69,300 (I think)

It’s a funny old game football, Anyone take the bet?
