he's absolute adamant that nobody is allowed to leave even though most of the teams have said they're leaving.

Ah yes the manager who's spent the last 6 years charging up and down the touchline, punching, gurning and generally acting like a coke-head lecturing about getting fans worked up.

£#%&!ing hell. get some self awareness mate.

Still it’s nothing. They take 23 million dividend out a year. All he’s done is cut the dividend by 1/4 (if he is to be believed) want to do something for the fans, sell up you parasites

The premier league has them all absolutely terrified. They've brought it all on themselves by strangling the life out of their domestic leagues to the extent nobody wants to watch them.

Have a look at this exchange on twitter with some Italian journo carping on about how the premier league must be stopped


Everything was hunky dory when italy were top dogs, ditto for la liga in the 2000s.

suddenly though, england must be stopped.

Its times like this that nofun and his 'kill them, kill them all' makes perfect sense.

Woodward attended a meeting at Downing Street with Dan Rosenfield, No 10’s chief of staff, who worked at Merrill Lynch when the Glazers used the bank to launch United on the New York Stock Exchange in 2012. United say it was a long-standing invite on social terms but details of what was discussed remain concealed — despite calls from Labour for the minutes to be released and the submission of Freedom of Information requests to government departments.

United and No 10 insist the pair, who are friends, held talks on the return of fans to stadiums. The Premier League, though, had not been informed and questions remain over whether Woodward left the meeting feeling the Prime Minister would not intervene on Super League plans, as has been alleged.

A No 10 spokesperson denied the Rosenfield meeting gave any encouragement to the Super League idea, adding: “From the moment these proposals emerged, we were clear that we would do everything in our power to stop them and that remains the case.”

Woodward also met Boris Johnson briefly that Wednesday, as first reported by the Independent. The Athletic understands it was a two-minute conversation in a corridor, with Woodward remarking on a previous occasion their paths had crossed. Woodward once bid highest at a charity auction for a drawing done by Johnson, and they shared a smile at the memory. Johnson also said one of his sons supports Newcastle United.

Sources allege two English teams, thought to be Chelsea and Manchester City, joined the Super League the day after Woodward’s visit to Downing Street. “Something happened to change minds,” says someone with knowledge of that week. Those driving the initiative were said to be “#@&%!-a-hoop” about developments.

It proved to be a major miscalculation. Six days later, with the public enmity evident, Johnson told fans of his intention to drop a “legislative bomb” to stop the breakaway.

Government sources say Rosenfield, a United fan, has been damaged within the Conservative party by the episode. He was, though, a guest in the directors’ box at Old Trafford for the visit of Everton on October 2.

and let's have it right - I think in a lot of cases the transfers weren't tightly controlled and financed. Lazio for one heavily lent on sponsors to fund big money moves... it was like something out of FM...

Quote:
The arrival of Sergio Cragnotti, in 1992, changed the club's history forever as he was prepared to invest long term in new players for the club in order to make the team a competitor on the Serie A level. Cragnotti repeatedly broke transfer records in pursuit of players who were considered major stars - Juan Sebastian Veron for £18million, Christian Vieri for £19million and breaking the world transfer record, albeit only for a matter of weeks, to sign Hernan Crespo from Parma for £35million.

In 1993 Lazio finished fifth in Serie A, fourth in 1994, second in 1995, third in 1996, and fourth again in 1997, then it lost the championship just by one point to AC Milan on the last championship's match in 1999 before, with the likes of Sinisa Mihajlovic, Alesandro Nesta and Pavel Nedved in the side, finally winning its second scudetto in 2000, as well as the Italian Cup in an impressive and rare (by Italian standards) "double" with Sven-Göran Eriksson (1997–2001) as manager.

In addition to the aforementioned one, Lazio had two other Coppa Italia triumphs in recent years, in 1998 and 2004. Lazio also won the last ever UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1999 and reached the UEFA Cup final in 1998, but lost 0-3 against a Ronaldo-inspired Inter Milan. Lazio won the Italian Super Cup twice and defeated Manchester United in 1999 to win the European Super Cup. Lazio was also the first Italian football club to be quoted on the Italian Piazza Affari stock market.

The official line is that Fergal knew nothing about his doing naughty stuff with prohibited substances, but if that is so it makes his rapid departure all the more curious.
