Al-Sandcastle - the sportswashing barcodes

Out of curiosity, why are clubs from lower leagues excluded from voting? Is that Premier League thing only?

I assume it would be a Premier League thing, so only the 20 Premier League clubs can vote.

Actually rereading it, this isnt as broad as I initially mistakenly thought. Newcastle are really the only Prem club involved in these schemes who could conceivably benefit from a incoming loan deal. The rest really only have an interest in outgoing loans and so as long as the rule was written that way you cannot see any of the rest of them having any issue with it.

So Luton town will vote on rules in the EPL that will last for years

Despite this been their 1st season in the EPL,
and perhaps their last for a while

I got told that a few clubs had major worries in the summer when a few players Newcastle had been linked with strangly went to Saudi Neves been the prime example.

Does say temporary ban.

Cue Eddie Howe complaining about playing too many games and having a few injuries.

Delighted to see these cunts having a mini implosion.
Long may it continue.

Howe will beheading for the door if he doesn’t turn this around soon.

I only watched the game because I thought that Chelsea - Man City was on and because I saw the teamsheet afterwards and thought that Bournemouth might snatch a draw. Really pleased with Solanke’s performance. Also, every time I see Pope, I wonder how Southgate rates Pickford over him.

Wash your mouth out.
There’s a whole nation in full agreement with Southgates choice of keeper.

Have you ever seen his distribution it’s extraordinarily brilliant and not at all like someone overexerting himself into a hamstring one day.

Newcastle trying to be a big club. Big clubs play two games a week. Stop crying and deal with it.

No sympathy for the Saudis.

I’m just confused why, when starting with 17 year old Lewis Miley in midfield, Howe didn’t think to bring another another midfielder with him.

He had three youth players on the bench - a CB, CF and RW.

They can moan about running iut of midfielders all they want but if you don’t bring one for the bench (Lewis Miley’s older brother Jamie for example) then you seem to be limiting your own options.

The state of these cunts…

From whichever way you look at it…

Not easy acclimatising to playing twice a week especially with the intensity of the Prem league.

We have several new ones that may also find it difficult

Also the issues in the Middle East must be a backlog on bank transfers

They’re simply not that good. It shouldn’t be used to diminish what they did last season because a team collectively over achieving is worthy of praise. But there should be an expectation of a reversion to the mean for several of them and that should moderate expectations on them being able to do it again this year or even improve

Brilliant. Only 13 votes for the ban - needed 14.

so what you’re saying is, Sandcastle didn’t have to buy off EVERY club just a couple that could use a nicely valued loan or a cheap player sale.
