Suspect anyone who signs their club up to five seasons of a documentary isn't really that concerned about privacy but hey, don't let that get in the way of a good grift.

Possibly although I think it's as much that the club wanted rid of Sugawara due to wages and Tonda not really rating him and wanting a more physical option at RB. Fair play to Matsuki though. I thought he looked a bit lightweight initially but he's developed that part of his game and a decent option and definitely more of a goal threat than Fellows. Will be interesting to see what the club do in terms of contract - he's 23 and just under two years left so I'd be thinking about a new contract if he carries on improving like he has done.

She's got some balls doing an ad like that and fair play to her.

So a legal challenge that could drag on? Yeah, I guess we could but personally I don't think we'd get very far and I don't think the FA will be too bothered either.

I think it was 12 months during which they played 6 games so depends which way you look at it. The ban itself was talked about as a 12 month ban. Regardless, that still doesn't really answer the question about what consequences we could enact if we feel the penalty is too excessive.

A lot of people seem to be saying stuff like this but, genuine question, what could we actually do? We've pleaded guilty to the charges, there's already precedent in the punishment given to the Canadian Womens Manager but more importantly - I don't see what leverage we have. Just feels like wishful thinking in the same way we didn't think we'd get chucked out of the playoffs. I'm sure we'll appeal or have appealed if it feels excessive but don't think we'll do very much outside of that. Hopefully the punishment isn't too severe.

TBH I think we massively overdid the hype for the last game. Understandable given we hadn't played them for a long time but I'd be much happier with a more low key approach to the game. Let our football do the talking and smash them out of sight on the pitch.

9 game ban making him eligible to face 'Boro as his first game back. SKY will love it.

Bit difficult to do that when you have admitted guilt though.

I've resigned myself to losing Keven to Real Madrid but Nico would be a good shout to replace him.

I listed private companies that have fucked up in the public sector. I could list private companies that have fucked up in the private sector but that would take too long.

G4S, Thames Water (and pretty much all other water companies), Carillion collapse, all privatised rail companies, Community Rehabilitation Companies, Fujitsu NHS patient database, Interserve, Serco (electronic tagging and test and trace in COVID), Capita and army recruitment, ATOS and work capability assessments. Yeah private companies don't fuck up at all do they?

Which you obviously don't.

Yeah, that's a bit of an oxymoron and feels like you've just flung a few of words together.

It would be nice for Mubama to surprise some people. I haven't really seen anything yet to suggest he will but it's still early days. Last night in the second half we were getting quite a lot of space and able to play some nice through balls which should in theory play to his strengths so from a developmental point of view it would have been good to get him on a bit earlier. I'd be a bit concerned about using the argument about how we learn to use him properly. He's a 20 year old kid with very little senior experience and it's up to him to adapt to the way we play. Obviously there's a bit of nuance in the argument but fundamentally we shouldn't be having players that are so limited that they can't adapt to the way we play.
