Some reports in the papers today that Burnley, Leeds and Leicester City are planning on suing Everton for £100s millions for losses in revenue due to being relegated whilst Everton avoided relegation.
I'm don't know how successful a law suit would be, but certainly looks like its going to be interesting.

City will get away with the charges. I'd be amazed if they get anything more than a fine! Agree and the fine will bite them as much as if we got a 2p fine for some undescretion. There is no way they will get away with just a fine though i completely understand why many think like that. This Everton case is a watershed moment,i'm convinced. there's no going back now. If the authorities were just going to let off city lightly,no way would they have brought all these charges- it doesn't make sense. But even more tellingly they would not have hit Everton as hard; it would just have been a fine so they could follow suit with city. I'm not sure if everyone actually realises the scale of what city have been charged with covers.It's not just about some technical misdemeanors. The former head of the uefa investigation,a Belgian who became a member of their government(so hardly a lightweight) said he was convinced something along the lines of money laundering/fraud had been involved at city(can't remember exact quote). He said this in public but has had no comeback. why not? The independant had an article saying in it they believed this was about much more than ffp- it was financial scandal. Add to this,even if you ignore the ffp element,some of the most serious charges are with regard to city not constantly supplying the financial information the league required. This on it's own is worthy of severe punishment- infact i'm amazed they're allowed to carry on competing in the meantime.

Really controversial ref call at the end of City v Spurs. Haaland is fouled but the ref plays advantage, only to pull it back for the freekick despite Grealish being through on goal.
No idea how they'll explain that one away.

No idea how they'll explain that one away. My only guess is he thinks Grealish isn't getting to the ball so pulls it back. Had a mare regardless.

Not like the ref has kicked one off the line, is it? Just the absolute state of refusing to take responsibility, like the entitled brats they are. You can shove Premier League football up your balls.

Paul Heckingbottom to be sacked at Sheffield United - Chris Wilder favourite to return.

To be fair, we'd be equally as fuming in the same circumstances; anyone would.

I’d like to think there’d be more self reflection about conceding three goals.

Surprised they have not got a petition going to bring this up in the house of commons. They collectively cannot accept anything thats not to their favour. Dungers are bad but they have brought this to another level.

If anyone is interested then there are 10 PL games on tv for Amazon Prime customers over the next 3 nights, with staggered kick offs at 7.30 and 8.15. Arsenal play tonight away at Luton, aiming to go 5 points clear.
