sure you're not combining his mentions of his Mowbray hotline with mentions of his Robins hotline?!

Will honestly say, while I liked Maddison, I saw him being a top end championship player, didn’t think he would make the premier league. The season he had last year was incredible and I hope, like Wilson, he can continue to perform in the top flight.

He was always falling over and diving. Perfect for the Premier league.
He is/will be much better than Wilson IMO.
I think he'll be at a top 6 club and in the England squad within 3 or 4 years

Watching the World Cup games where the Refs are missing a lot if you don't fall over and dive you get nothing and as for the V A R no existent when it should be in our favour a least a couple of those assaults on Kane were missed, waste of time having it or is it just a bias against us.

Apologies if already posted but BBC now saying bid accepted but can see no definite confirmation, they say £20M.

Can't blame the lad for choosing the club nearest to his family when it was a choice between them and Southampton
He's still in touch with some of our players and has come to Cov games as a fan since he moved

Do we defo get 10% and is it up front?

£22m + £2m in add-ons apparently with a 10% sell on is the deal agreed. Five year deal. Largest transfer fee ever received for a Championship player. Pickford, Sissoko and Wijnaldum went for more but never actually played in the Championship

I'd be surprised if that were the case, as we'd have been backing him to get the cap whilst playing for Norwich, which would be really stupid

Difficult to find out.
Charlton earned £250,000 when Joe Gomez got called up by England and they also received a ‘small payment’ when he made his U21 debut.
Joe Gomez England call-up will only earn Charlton £250,000 from Liverpool

Was not going to rise to the bait but I have had one of those days so heyho
Some people write complete shit on here, some people just make stuff up for "banter" and others post fact
I reference MR or TM or whoever to give informative information rather than just speculation, so that for example, if MR suggests that the Maddison sale is extremely helpful to his budget next year then any genuine Cov fan should be delighted to hear about that.
Maybe you just prefer to read the "shit" and "banter"
Your choice old chap.
At my age I am well past trying to impress you guys that I know so and so.
PS I think if you bother to check that is now 3 references to MR.

OSB will be along in a minute to correct me (and you for calling it FFP and not SCMP), but I think we can spend 60% of any income.

Exciting times
Hopefully get sterling st right back and then we don't really have too many pressing concerns. Maybe get in another striker who has done it st league 1 level and send ponticelli out on loan
We need to go all out for promotion. Momentum is huge

Can’t be less effective than Alli last night.

He did seem to pick up an injury to be fair. Maybe change should've been made sooner.
If Maddison can do anything like what he did in the Championship with Leicester then he'll get a call up before too long.

it was a joke, and no way I'm going to trawl through your posts to find out how many times you've mentioned it so I'll take your word!

Don’t know what the CT are going to do when it’s confirmed. 3 stories on their site all with basically the same information.

My thoughts to about VAR, is it because it's England ? Is it because they don't like us ?
It's the only game so far that VAR hasn't been used. :emoji_middle_finger:

Or there’s this explanation:
The reason VAR didn't give the two England penalties despite reviewing them [ESPN]
Not saying they’re correct, but...
When I watched it I was screaming at the TV and certain that ‘they’ were against us, and I haven’t rewatched it to see if the above is correct.

Unless ypu know when SISU do their budgeting it is all pie in the sky. They will have a set budget for if promoted...doubt they will give MR a bonus kitty for sell-ons. They will just add it to the income for consideration in next yrs budget. And rest assured they will definitely take their minimum cut...& maybe more

Looks like someone desperately trying to justify it to me, especially the second one. No way did Kane “pull the defender down onto him” and the Stones foul was minimal.
There were shocking decisions for and against both sides, especially some of the offside calls. I’m sticking with the officials being shit.

R u joking? It's the best Reffing I have seen in a long long time
They have been given a directive not too keep whistling every 2 secs for ppl going down. The games are flowing so much more and the diving players are having to stop moaning and get up and keep playing
Also linesman told not too flag offside unless clear. Leave the rest to var. Once again cuts down on promising moves ended for no reason
Yes maybe they could have used var in s few more situations but overall it's best refereeing in a long time and it's helping the sport. I just hope domestic leagues take note.

The referees in general have been abysmal

You're watching a different tournament to me. Dissent and going down under the slightest contact are through the roof.
Tony Kroos squared up to the ref in the Germany game and had to be pushed back by the ref himself, not even a yellow. Colombia spent 20 minutes throwing themselves to the floor after their red card yesterday trying to get the ref to even things up. Japanese players were still arguing with the ref even after the goalline technology had shown how far the ball was over the line on the scoreboard. Players have started to deliberately look for contact in the box because they know in slow motion it'll get given. Whole teams are surrounding the ref whenever there is a moment in the box they want reviewed.
