Sancho's definitely on his way to Old Trafford then. Probably won't do his international prospects any harm to be playing in England now.

Been desperately disappointing our recruitment so far, after being told we were one of the most financially secure clubs in the League. Does this mean other clubs are ignoring the effects of Covid and just paying what they did, if so can't see that is even sane. Swindon Town in serious **** ATM, signed a fair few players, but can't pay them. Makes sense.

Some good news though, both Harry Lee (a 'keeper), and Sonny cox, a wonderkid striker, have signed their first pro contract after being offered deals with the top Prem sides. Expect Cox to play first team, this year. and hopefully score a lot of goals. Kerching!!!

Tranmere were featured in a documentary on gambling addiction recently because at the time they were turning down sponsorship and advertising from betting companies.

We did have a short lived deal with a gambling aggregator. Since then it seems Palios has steered well clear

I don't understand why clubs who don't pay their players are allowed to sign new ones.

Well, when they signed them, they were presumably paying them, they only signed 2 players, but one was from us, so presumably offered better wages.

Swindon are waiting on a takeover, if it goes through they may have hope, but I have my doubts.

good, gambling is fun but the bet365 and betway plus marketing has ruined it
Gambling is great fun, but yeah long term may be a master stroke for Tranmere steering clear as it may look visionary.

Advertising and sponsorship restrictions are coming next few years for sure.

Gambling is simply impossible to avoid and its pissing people off left right and centre. Only so many bungs tory mp's can receive to turn a blind eye especially when their is serious political capital to be made tightening it up.

Saliba set to depart on loan again for another year, making this the third out of a five year contract. Still no competitive appearances. What a horlicks.

He's either not rated or considered far away from being Premiership ready. Either way it's worrying.

Not an Arsenal fan but signing Ben White would seem the ideal situation to integrate someone like Saliba in - could have a back 3 and Tierney at LWB if you choose too, also means if Saliba needs a bit of time to bed in you have Gabriel and Ben White there already

The Barca situation is ****ing hilarious to me. That club can rot in hell.
I don’t understand the news. It’s always like ‘Barca declare bankruptcy’ then an hour later ‘Barca make 6th signing of the summer’. What’s the endgame for them?

None of their summer signings are able to be registered until the cut their wage bill by nearly 200m. They cannot resign Messi. The only way they make it out of this is if Tebas caves and lets them break the La Liga FFP rules, which at this point seems very unlikely on his part. They've been trying to cancel players contracts unilaterally and players have been lawyering up (obviously). Joke of a club.

So Arsenal have a signed a player who shares his name with a 1970s soul act. Brilliant news for people of my generation, not least for the chance to think of any other footballers sharing their name with soul acts from days gone by. I'm working on it.
