Real Madrid are the latest big club to announce that their players and coaches have agreed to take pay cuts. The cut varies between 10 and 20% which might not sound a lot but 10-20% of a massive wage bill like theirs must be is a whole lot of money. This cut will go […]
A message read and heard all day, every day for what might seem like years but it’s been just weeks. Weeks of being asked to do something for the good of ourselves and others, key workers especially as it’s they who work whilst many others rest. But not Mourinho it seems, not some of […]
Football seems to be going in the wrong direction. Liverpool, Toots, Bournemouth, Newcastle and Norwich have placed some, if not all their non playing staff on furlough. The biggest surprise of course is Liverpool who just over a year ago we’re lifting the Champions League Cup. The Mail report that the decision came from the […]
Matt Hancock caused a few feathers to ruffle yesterday afternoon when during the Governments daily Coronavirus briefing he suggested Premier League footballers should take a pay cut in order to help prevent their own club from furloughing their non-playing staff. This comes after the Toots furloughed all their staff just before it was made public […]
The game was over over as far as the result goes. Sunderland were losing 3-0 and added time was being played out when Dan Smith pretty much ended what should have been a great footballing career for Abou Diaby. The challenge was deemed worthy of just a booking when in reality a three match […]
Only a few days ago did I write the words spoken by our very own Vinai Venkatesham about how the club would look after all its ‘support staff’ through this time of financial uncertainty. As yet, there’s been no announcement about players taking any kind of pay cut either. Should they be required to […]
So much has been said and written about David Rocastle over the last 30+ years. His spirit, the red and white coloured blood which flowed through his veins, his passion for both the game, the club and the fans. His tears when the day his Arsenal career came to an end. Our tears when his […]
Alexander Hleb. On his day, a wonderful player and at Arsenal, he had many of those days which is why Barcelona came calling. Back then, a chance to move to Catalan club was not something many footballers turned down. We of all fans are aware of that, but not always did such a move […]
I hope you and all yours remain fighting fit and healthy. Here in the UK, Boris Johnson is reported to have written to us all, emphasising the dangers of Coronavirus and how critical it is for us to stay at home. I’m sure it’s the same for those of you living in other parts of […]
I missed a day yesterday. Forgive me. but what is there to write about really? There’s no football, no sport, no nothing or rather anything. But it doesn’t matter. What does matter is your health. The health of the NHS and all key workers here in the UK along with the equivalent organisations around the […]
Morning all. Football seems on course to suffer a massive financial hit but I wont feel too sorry for the Premier League if it does. For too long now, footballers have been overpaid, transfer fees have been off the scale ridiculous and fans have been nothing short of ripped off for tickets, season tickets and […]
