    St Andrew's it is then

    A good indicator of what? I've asked a reasonable question. One of the two parties involved here is lying. It could be either of them. Which has the most to gain?

    St Andrew's it is then

    I'll be honest, I don't know. Aren't the "removal of future legal action" and the indeminty entirely separate? No-one, outside of those on the inside, knows the detail of these agreements. CCFC have already said they've dropped any legal claim against Wasps. The Indemnity has been guessed at...

    St Andrew's it is then

    I would guess that because if the case was found in SISU's favour, Wasps/ACL would have had to pay the shortfall. It's been posted on this site many times that the outcome of the case in SISU's favour would have meant the beneficiary paying the difference to CCC

    St Andrew's it is then

    A few others have commented since, but there's a chance you could be the first to be correct here. The general concensus is the third party is the Council, but why would Wasps need to indemnify anything against them? Wasps PR have come out in the last few minutes and said, "there's no...

    Championship salary cap next season?

    I don't disagree with the premise, but there are plenty of clubs who act responsibly off their own bat.

    Championship salary cap next season?

    Clubs aren't forced to pay anything. If a player won't sign for you because he won't accept a relegation wage cut in his contract, then don't sign him. We know the football authorities are basically useless in their governance, so clubs should have their own house in order, like any business...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Looking at the recent list of cases, I'd say they've been a bit busy with Covid. https://ec.europa.eu/competition/elojade/isef/index.cfm?fuseaction=dsp_sa_by_date

    Championship salary cap next season?

    CCFC already have this for player contracts. I know a youth team player who was delighted at us being promoted. Not only is he a Cov fan anyway, but he was also very pleased he was getting a pay rise. I'd be surprised if it wasn't standard practise across the lower leagues now and probably even...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    A long way to go, but it certainly *feels* different to announcements made previously. The presence of the University in the statement and the project adds a level of respectibility not present in any previous announcements about a new stadium. What I find interesting in the statement is...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    This actually has a chance of being one of the most accessible grounds in the country if all of this infrastructure is built. Rail, HS2, Very Light Rail, Buses from all the surrounding towns, Motorway and A-Road access and huge swathes of car parking across the Campus which wouldn't normally be...

    Boddy on Season Tickets

    Dave Boddy has been kind enough to reply to an email I sent him regarding season tickets. The club still have the majority of their staff on furlough and those that have been working were focussed on the party up until last week. I asked him if there would be a scheme made available for...

    Offside law change

    Agreed, although if you limit it to the chest of the player being offside, it becomes less ambiguous as it's focussed on one place.

    Offside law change

    That's why I said "any part of the body that can score a goal"

    Offside law change

    You are ;-). I don't want to be waiting 30 seconds to decide on a throw-in being one way or another! On a serious note, referees are told to run a diagonal line between the right back areas on the pitch and let the assistants help them in the left back areas

    Offside law change

    I don't actually think VAR is the problem here. The law is. the way the offside law is written means that if any part of the body that can score a goal is offside, you're offside. It's a binary decision, you either are or you're not. So, change the law. Wenger's proposal is fine and actually...

    Tim Kalns aka @ Liesreid is starting to feel the heat

    We had a frank exchange of views about two years prior and he blocked me. Some random, annoymous account asks him who my twitter account belonged to and Les obliged. I have my suspicions that Les was actually the person behind the random account.
