The whole youth conveyor belt route failed at Chelsea so I don’t see why we should try to replicate it at L1/L2 level and expect any different.

Plus if it just means watching Assal, Rudoni and Nkeng go off to play for other clubs while we continue to reduce our playing budget just to exist, what’s the underlying benefit to fans? Just allowing someone to try out their football hypothesis for a short while.
What if an attacker is defending? What is he then?

OI - that’s a weird one, I hadn’t realised there were different handball rules for attackers and defenders… Thanks for clarifying though :)

a4e - an attacker who wasn't penalised for it? Rules for defenders and attacketrs on handball in the penalty area are different, however ridiculous that seems. Goal ruled out if any hand/arm contact, penalty only given when non-accidental or not in natural body shape.

If we want to keep majority ownership then a plan like Bertrand's is the only route, we just have to hope he is smarter than Ratcliffe at Yernited. The key is how losses are covered whilst he gets his conveyour belt of youth going, assuming the theory works.

of course he and his investors may see it as a path to majority control if losses carry on
Rangers second goal against Celtic disallowed because the scorer handled the ball in the same way that the MK player did against us…..

Well if we have a side of young talent, might as well get Robbo back and relegation.

That rings all kinds of alarm bells Meadow - says his main interest is in taking over the football side of the club when arguably that’s the only bit that we’ve currently got working half ok.

Doing a daytrip to Florence as technically it's shoulder season now. Mainly to take that photo of the Duomo from the foothills across the river that you see in Room With a View and elsewhere ;-)

Beautiful square and yes a nice walk around the walls to work off the pasta and grappa.

Montone for me - a town that Walt Disney would have built if he was trying to build a Tuscan village for one of his theme parks. Stunning.
Going there next week. My favourite place is Lucca between Pisa & Florence. Old Tuscan walled town that gets bypassed by the hordes. Working my way down to Palermo by train over two weeks. No football ;-)

When we lived in Durnsford Road early 50's-early 60's , close to the sewage plant - my mother always said we were never healthier

I'm thoroughly useless at links etc.
Some great village bistros TF, though maybe they've been replaced by McDonalds since we stopped driving to France.

Just reading the programme from Thursday and spotted that we now have an impressive (and growing) list of 19 prohibited items within our bag policy. My immediate thought was - maybe easier to just say what's allowed?
