Congratulations Hannah Hampton. As we know the "better" side don't always win. What is the better footballing side, granted, I understand. Shame about the English press over the years and some of the lyrics in the songs sung by English people.

We've got the FFP/PSR stuff in the background too. This is about what feels right not about x's and o's on a sheet of paper. Relegate City, give us a 30 point deduction, get all the charges out of the way and have a reset. The small/smaller teams won't have that type of punishment as they haven't been as successful. We'll be back, City will be back, City were in the third tier 20 plus years ago. Give someone else a chance.

And they looked out of sync, lacked sharpness I suppose. I'm really looking forward to Saturday night, love night PL football under lights.

Probably other clubs are hiding payments. Doesn't make it right that we should avoid punishment for shining a light on illegal stuff the club has done over the years. I don't want people in the pub thinking, "Pfff, they got away with murder just because they have money".

Is it Actovegin? NRL scandal more than 10 years ago about Actovegin injections, calves-blood product as far as I know. Manly Sea Eagles were involved, possibly Cronulla as well.

Do Spanish and Italian supporters say the word 'boring' anywhere near as much as English people? People in Cymru don't go on about football being boring as much, I think it's down to John Toshack who is labelled as the guy who brought a more balanced attitude to football in Spain, possession and conserving energy is quite important in football. Toshack is such a massive figure on this side of the border, and the way Swansea have traditionally played. Most English people should be watching rugby league not football, it's obvious. Chelsea 3-1. Palmer 28'.

Fulham? Yeah, in probably the best city on the planet, what's the big deal?

It was a penalty, defenders have gotten away with far too much over the years.

Conserving energy. Could have been a penalty, took a bit of a dive though.

Congratulations Gusto. Should have been starting at 8pm Noo Yaak time though. Nice to see Mr Trump and his wife there. Jesus is the only answer to the issues of this planet. Sport not war.

Football is what's on the pitch not what's decided in board rooms. Shouldn't we be playing against other big cities not towns? So you don't get the same teams at the top of the table every year. We know who are in contention for the 2026 PL already. Have a salary capped ESL where 18 plus teams could win the comp. at the start of each season.

On ya Ellie. Up the New South Wales Blues.

Of course the fear of having to pay out millions is the main driver for these decisions.

I'm not dismissing what you wrote. I'm not sure if an average side has ever reached the CL Final, probably not.
