The EFL displaying their competence yet again...

Seeking recommendations, tips, advice, etc, for a c.2 week holiday to Peru.... I'm not talking 'mountain trekking' or anything adventurous here... We're far too old (and wise!) for such things! Just the usual touristy stuff... Machu Pichu, Sacred Valley, Lake Titicaca, Nazca Lines, Cusco, etc. Recommended airline(s) / flight route options (given no direct flights from UK to Lima), best hotels, excursions.... That kinda thing... Looking to go this September. Cheers!

Yep, I was going to comment on that too. Seems like we're (finally) back in 'business as usual' mode (from a social media perspective)

And was given a contract extension recently, if I remember correctly?

And it's relatively unusual for Alfie House to publish articles as definitive as this, ergo it must have originated from within the club, you'd have thought....

I'm probably in a small minority here, but Scienza staying on would actually be one of the least surprising player outcomes this summer to me... Call it naivety and/or wishful thinking, but I sense that he has developed an emotional bond with the club and fans over the last season and I get a feeling that, after an unusual career path, he's finally found his 'spiritual home' with us. Yes, I know this "soft son-in-law sentimentality pony" won't get me on Ducky's Christmas card list this year, nor that of the other Saintsweb intelligentsia gang, but it's what I feel and I'm damn well going to express it on this here esteemed internet football forum... So there! Ner ner ner ner ner 🤪

Auto-promo baby!

Yep, agreed... Some people seem to conflate 'doing it surreptitiously' with 'knowingly breaking the rules'....

The penalty for breaking that one is peanuts though... #bielsa #200K

Whilst it's plausible, I wouldn't say it's "clear"... I've worked in the same line of business for 40 years and I'm buggered if I know all the industry rules and regs that we should be abiding by... Far from it... Day to day you just do what you feel is OK and get on with it I've been driving for a similar period of time, but do I know all 307 rules in the highway code? No, of course not... (Yes, I know, analogies were never my strongest suit... )

The headline attributes the claim to Tonda yet the article makes it clear that Tonda is simply relaying what he's heard Guardiola say about it. Most unlike the BBC to twist what people actually said...
