StaffsRam reacted to Ghost of Clough in Just let him rest in peace
They asked Gibson for advice - if Sala had been available, they would have picked up 3 extra points and avoided relegation. This is why the compensation is close to £100m more than the Sala transfer fee (£15m?). That part will be quickly dismissed, as the figure ignores the fact an extra season in the PL also results in additional costs and there's no way to prove what Cardiff would or wouldn't have spent.
The tactic is to start high and settle for less. I expect around halfway between the full fee paid and the expected legal costs.
So far, only the owner(?) of the flight providers has been prosecuted. Cardiff claim is due to the agent (who represented Nantes) was the person who organised the flight.i don't think Cardiff have filed against the correct party, but Nantes will probably give in (to an agreement) due to the potentially high legal fees.

I think the more likely scenario is that they start with a strong team but make plenty of subs at HT if it's not looking good for the autos.
If we ended up losing 2-0 and Bolton ended up fielding an under-strength team against Posh Reserves and end up winning 1-0 they'd be kicking themselves well into the playoffs.
Either way, we should put all of this beyond doubt by going 3-0 up inside the first 10 minutes. F*** what Peterboro and Bolton do.

Think he's expecting Barnsley to limp into 5th and he'd rather have them then either Oxford or Lincoln who might be in better form.
Resting players could go either way, and surrendering momentum, especially going into the playoffs, is never a clever idea really.

Apparently not. Either they don't think we'll drop points, or they deemed themselves incapable of slotting 4 or 5 past Bolton, but either way, the waving of this white flag is practically Italian/French in its epic-ness.

Probably the same guy who valued our ground the same as Morecambe's - did he base the estimate on Mbappe's value?

F*** me, it feels like I've aged 20 years during that second half!
Huge result. Not necessarily for the opposition or the performance, but the situation being what it is it's all about the results now and a win, and a clean sheet, in this game, is huge. Well done lads! 😎

If we can't beat Carlisle at home then we don't deserve to go up anyway to be blunt.

StaffsRam got a reaction from Gee SCREAMER !! in No replays in the FA Cup from the First Round.
Agree.
I get the fixture congestion line that's always trotted out with this kind of thing, but there are far better solutions than this. Why not increase the Premier League squad lists from 25 to say, 30, and make them actually play some of the vast amounts of talent that the Premier League clubs hoover up from the lower leagues?
As a point of reference, re fixtures - Man City played 61 games in total last year. Winning the treble. In 71-72 we won the league, and neither the FA Cup, or League Cup, and had no European impediments, and we played 60 games.

Quite simple then. Withdraw the clubs from the competition.

It wouldn't be half as bad if it wasn't so utterly predictable. Open up a 7-point gap to 3rd? f*** that, let's phone it in and keep things interesting instead. Every f****** time.
Mentally weak, and tactically clueless is not a great combination.
