***Official*** English Football Season 2019-20

[wpdavid]

So Man City's two year ban has been lifted.

 

[sledger]

Quelle surprise.

God, Twitter is just so good right now.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

It's been a while...

 

[Spikey]

what a world

I’m kinda surprised at the response. Lots of ‘what does this mean for UEFA and FFP???’ when the whole thing was already completely undermined ages ago when Milan and PSG had sanctions overturned. The ban being upheld never felt like a realistic possibility to me, though I didn’t look into it in much detail.

The "CAS were bribed" brigade are the best ones. Like City would bribe an independent body and not just bribe the proven to be corrupt UEFA

 

[andruid]

Palace have been just abysmal since the restart.

Nothing to play for really. I doubt it's a coincidence Benteke got himself a 3 match suspension, with three matches left in the season, through that post match red card

So Man City's two year ban has been lifted.

The power of Abu Dhabi.

The power of Abu Dhabi.

Exhibit A, your honour.

Wycombe promoted. Good riddance. Though to be fair they weren’t at their most prolific anti football worst tonight.

Ah well, TBF they were pretty good in the play-offs, people probably think we are over-reacting to their style of play, on their budget it is an huge achievement too, and Wheels is probably my fave current footballer, so happy for him.

Probably be a disaster in the Championship but who knows.

Standard United that, nice little run then with their fate in their own hands produced a tepid performance, parking the bus v Southampton

 

[GIMH]

8th in the league and promoted

Man Utd. have been good in recent months. I'd back Solskjaer for now. But it'd be funny if they missed out on the CL anyway.

 

[sledger]

Man Utd/Solskjaer in danger of developing the Nigel Adkins effect imo.

 

[Uppercut]

I thought Southampton played really well tbf. Can't win every game, though it was a sickening way to drop points.

Man Utd/Solskjaer in danger of developing the Nigel Adkins effect imo.

i will concede that he has a way with coaching kids but i think someone once said something about that

 

[Uppercut]

You kind of see his limitations in how Southampton, a club with a legitimately good coach, matched us despite having much worse players. But even before lockdown I'd have said Solskjaer was easily the best manager we've had since Ferguson and the club is clearly in a much better position than it was when he took over.

The way AC Milan were allowed to bring their ban forward because they couldn't be arsed playing in the Europa League was farcical.
