Transfer policy massively attack orientated at expense of defensive cover !!
at 09:57 27 Feb 2025

I think our policy is geared towards developing players for a profit, and attacking players are worth more in the transfer market

Although, I'd still argue we are light in strikers at the club

I think it was actual contractors that did it, although I doubt they imagined it would still be there 50+ years later ;D

There are loads of cameras on the autoroutes and they are enforced. There is a Halfords at Le Tunnel if you go that way for anything last minute you forgot!

The roads are so much better than the UK, but be aware that speed limits change for the weather, as they should, so if its raining or foggy then its a different limit.

Tolls can be expensive and the motorway services can be spread out.

I've driven top to bottom a few times, and once on electric only with no problems.
Only sh!t myself once when everything froze and lorries were skidding over. did about 10mph after that with white knuckles...

I think its setup a bit like news.
You could get all your news for free on Social Media, but it might not be 100% accurate.
You could subscribe to something like Associated Press and get verified facts.

This is why Brentford and Brighton were doing better than others with transfers, as they leveraged the stats used by large betting companies.

It's why we are all guessing how much a player is on and how long his contract is I 'spose

Rangers have been blessed with some excellent defenders over the years. Parker was international class, a genuine Rolls Royce player. This was still in the era where players like Fashanu could get away with elbows and all sorts.

Parker was usually a sweeper in the back 5 and we typically man marked, where Maddox was probably the best I've seen at this.

I think Parker could have played anywhere, and as another poster has said, probably should have moved to Europe, where the sweeper system was prevalent at the time, he would have won everything.

Yeah, if the club do the deductions from paye then they probably save on the income tax they would lose anyway, so that £200 is more like £100 after tax, if that makes sense.

I remember Zlatan moaning that Man Utd charged him for taking things out of a minibar while staying overnight for a game. What was he on, £250k p/w?!

Did some research;
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/22898752/premier-league-man-utd-arsenal-shirt-sal
is saying a PL club makes ~ £4.80 off of the sale of an £80 kit

But, to the OP, this netted Spurs £63m in sales, prob a chunk off of Son sales alone;

Not sure if buying direct from the club makes a lot more difference, or if the vendor, like John Lewis take a share as well?

I'm pretty sure Asmir could run to the £200 per week for giving his shirt away, I'm struggling to find a violin to play for him, wasn't he one of the top earners last year by all accounts?

Do football clubs make that much money from shirt sales though?
I remember watching a TiFo video on YouTube and it was a surprisingly small % for a PL club's income

I thought they swapped the dressing rooms around the first time we went back to the PL?
So, that poor changing room was probably the old home one!

*BUMP*
Can now confirm this is being enforced, £65 lighter.

At least it wasn't the other halfs car, as that is leased and fines take so long to get to us they are always the full amount with an "admin" charge.

Can't say I wasn't warned, although the signs are tiny

I just got my £65 PCN as well!

The signage is tiny, I had no clue this was in force, as I hadn't driven that way for a while...
