That doesn't mean it shouldn't be done, as long as it remains objective and all assumptions are clearly stated, who knows, it may even provoke some greater level of openness - even if it is a rebuke (though I doubt such a response would occur).

I suggest that Deeney's confidence was raised when he saw the results of multiple rounds of testing, and understanding the rigour of that having gone through it himself - It would probably have the same effect on most from this board.

Just going off the Chairman's words several weeks ago. If he thought we wouldn't be n too much trouble should revenues drop by £50 million then the latest estimates of around £15 million cut to the TV rights for this season leaves us reasonably comfortable. Every season every team outside the top 6...

The Chairman said a few weeks ago that the club wouldn't want to but could stand losses up to £50 million. I'm sure that we won't need to cash in on our best players because of a cash crisis. In fact, I'm pretty sure we will be out there looking to pick up bargains from those clubs who are totally ...

The lower leagues and non league surely can't cease to exist as there will no players available in the future for the clubs who do survive. Talk about killing the goose that laid the golden egg.

It would seem that post pandemic revaluations (and not just of players transfer fees and wages) are going to be difficult to swallow.

Nothing at all wrong with how Dyche comes across in the media. Very grounded. I actually think he could help in business doing motivational and management talks if he ever leaves football.

He does that kind of thing already, not too often, but is very well regarded for it

If you look at the source material then it is based on data from the 2017/18 season and then applied to this season's results which is just a shocking way to justify an argument the source material is here and it difficult to understand what they are trying to do other than get some publicity for th...

This pandemic has been a hammer blow to Spurs, i would think they will not be spending money on new players and it may hasten the exit of Kane, which will enrage their support.

Football is returning though, it's being taken too literally, everyone knows it's only at the top 2 levels, whether that's right or not is immaterial. The rest of football can't return because it is deemed to be unsafe to do so, that's the point. It's arguing over semantics. It is a bit more than t...

Hear what you're saying, different areas to be accounted from the yearly pot of £1.8bn.

But why the two different starting points of £1,376m for equal payments and £1,612m for facility fees and merit payments?
