Good question. In Finland the gambling is monopolised to Veikkaus which is government owned and controlled. They are not allowed to kick players out due winning too much. If I have understood correctly, they can close the playing rights if someone is losing money too much. It’s unique system, but so far they’ve won all the court cases against the monopoly claims. Mostly because their profit is used to help those who play too much, culture and sports.

I'm a semi-professional in betting and I cringe when I hear this kind of stuff. Two fundamental rules: 1) Betting shouldn't be emotionally loaded. 2) You only bet when the odds are higher than they should be. Seems like your bet would be against both of these rules.

I don’t know much of modern day Scottish footballers but I’ll drop in one random name (as I know those are the best ones, right?) Topi Keskinen, 21, playing for the HJK currently. Clocked 36.2 km/h against PAOK, which makes him one of the fastest footballers in the world. He will be sold this summer, 2 millions is rumoured so out of our price range if miracle, like Cashin to Brighton, doesn’t happen. I know Topi will prefer a team where he gets to play, rather than earning massive move and sit on the bench. He has played as an inside forward (preferred), winger and a wing back. Hard to imagine safer 2 million investment. Even Pukki and Morelos were cheaper so that tells something. Ps. Last Finn I recommended was a thin keeper playing in Denmark, who just won the Bundesliga as a Leverkusen captain😉

notts forest. The gift that keeps on giving, so I decided to make a bit more popcorn than usual.

Celebrations, eh? Well, I know how to party! I'll make a bold step from my armchair to the fridge and get my non-alcoholic beer. If I totally lose it, I'll clap on my way. Quietly though, so I won't cause any distress to my neighbours.

Suits to martyrdom narrative. I'm pretty sure that dangerous telly, who allegedly assaulted during the game, is going to be sued next.

You lot have a short memory. When the going gets tough, you turn to Waggy. He'll find his unstoppable inner beast for the most meaningful matches. Maybe a bit of help from the other unsung hero and footballing genius, Marlon Pack.

I mostly agree with this. First team: Sibs, Nyambe, Cash, Nelson, NML, Gayle Rotation: Vickers (only one of the keepers is needed and due to his contract, Josh keeps the place), Rooney, Bradley, Elder, Smith, Thommo, Barks, Wilson, CBT, Collins Huge question marks: TJJ, Fornah, Robinsons & other youngsters Back-up players & coaches: Loach, Fozzy Like the rest of us, I'd love Adams to be part of our new-look midfield next season. Adams and half a dozen new first-teamers and we could give a go for play-offs. I'm not sure if any of our players are ready for PL. Nelson and Cashin would give it a good go if we played with a low defensive line. I have no idea how good player-coach Loach is but depending on his role, he might be closest! 🙂

It's not the first time someone has spied at the Moor Farm.

I enjoyed the game. Perfect footballing weather, two good teams giving their all with a short Leicester cameo (even though ill-timed ). Such goals and (mostly their) misses that both sets of fans can speculate about the result. I loved the tactical nuances, especially the second half which some didn't enjoy. Wonderstrike ruined an otherwise awesome show of how to control the game without a ball. I raise my hat to two things especially: Firstly Pompey, they are worthy champions and they played like one. See you next season! Secondly, Collins. The footballing world is full of neymars, yet it desperately needs more collos. After such an injury to be able to play already is incredible, but to play a dropping nine with such a work rate... Incredible times 10.

He reminds me a bit of Roos. Both are awesome shot-stoppers but unfortunately, they have flaws that will block their path to the top. I don't think Wildsmith's downfall is making mistakes, as he rarely does them. I think it's their grave manner and not learning from them. I'd be sad to see him go, but he is replaceable as is any of our players.

Well, you could try the classic "I forgot the rings" maneuver and make a clean escape to watch the game. #bemoreb4

Surely this one should be in the promotion rivals thread?

Our strikers are dropping like Crystal Palace managers, no one will last more than a few games.
