    Yes was on about them cheating their way to promotion twice , first time when they went bust.

    Yes, I've had many business dealings with Russians, and a couple with Chinese business people and one job with the Chinese Government, and I found each extremely fair and honest, while driving hard bargains. The Americans lied, often to cover their own asses, didn't stick to agreements and were worse than Arab Clients  for paying their bills. Of course, that's just my experience, but it's coloured my views of Americans in business - but  I've heard similar from others. It seems to be their culture, but I don't have to like or tolerate it.

    Nothing new there as this article is from eight years ago, but it so obviously cheating and nothing is done about it.
    The biggest crime in football is to upset the establishment.

    Lol. They were so good at it they did it again! I was asking about how they made their 'lucky signings', seems that spotting Mahrez helped. But interestingly the huge wages paid relates to promotion bonuses:
    "Leicester’s 2013-14 accounts state they spent £36m on players’ wages, £5m more than the club’s entire income – the goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, the captain Wes Morgan, the prolific striker Jamie Vardy and other core players were already on the payroll then – although Leicester said £9.4m comprised bonuses paid on promotion. During the season, in January 2014, Leicester signed Riyad Mahrez from Le Havre for a reported £560,000, and the Algeria midfielder has since been instrumental in Leicester’s promotion and remarkable Premier League turnaround."
    If you look for info on Luton's finances - who we should aim to be like according to one poster - then their current losses are down to 'huge' promotion bonuses. It all goes on still.
    How to stop football clubs spending money? 😉

    Watched the highlights this morning and noticed because the last ball was a no ball those 2 runs won the game and Brooke Guest doesn't get the 4 runs for the boundary he hit….
    What kind of nonsense is that, stealing runs from a batter 🤷‍♂️

    I love the Bowie version , but I think the Nina Simone original is an absolutely stunning piece of music. Apparently Bowie took Nina out for dinner to ask her permission to do the cover.

    In December 1982 a world record attempt was made.  For 14 days straight local bands played one after the other in what was termed a marathon concert.  The minimum stage time for any performers was 6 hours, broken into 45 minutes on stage with a 5 minute rest and go again before the 5 minutes were up.  A friend of mine and my job was to keep everyone supplied with whatever needed, cords, food, instruments, etc and to make sure that bands kept to the 5 minute rule.
    One night from midnight to 6am Tappi Tíkarrass played on the small stage in the cellar.  I had heard them before, but this became a private concert, I was the only attendee.  They kept to the rules, ignored me seated on the sofa and pounded through their program of what seemed like over a hundred songs, many I had not heard before or after. 
    This girl probably has something I thought to myself, heh.

    Yep. And if we want to compete at a higher level then now is the right time to find investment, whilst we still have things to offer that other Championship or League 1 clubs don't. Memories aren't necessarily long in football - see the Lionel Pickering thread for our own fans remembering ability. So we need to capitalise on who we are and how we might compete before investors look for another Wrexham. Chesterfield maybe?! #COYR

    I did, Hartlepool away in the FA Cup around Oct/Nov time, Their pitch was worse than the BBG, Coop came off the pitch cleaner than when he ran out of their tunnel at the start of the game...an absolute turd of a player for DCFC 🙄

    I'm guessing they're just referring to photographs of the fanbase.
