Bit before my time unfortunately. But my dad still goes on about the Holy Trinity (Harvey was his favourite). Why was he sold? Was he showing signs of decline? Was the offer too much to refuse? Had a look at his Arsenal stats and he was still a top class player for them for a number of years.

They have to say all the right things for getting investment, new owners, sponsors etc in. Theyre not going to say they're expecting another fine.

With the whole City thing. Surely there should be a rule in place to prevent clubs from creating a situation where it just drags on and they frustrate the process. In the same way missing a drugs test gets the same treatment as getting caught taking them.

Just popped onto twitter to see other football fans opinions and the amount that don't think it's handball is staggering. I don't care if his arm was by his side. He swiveled his body around and leant into it. His arm acted as an extension to his body and changed the direction of the ball! If...

Beggars can't be choosers comes to mind.

No idea, I'd guess we would make that argument, but the way things went last season I'd imagine they'd disregard it as mitigation.

Given our off field predicaments and having £10 million taken off us due to PSR, I believe we are currently in a perpetual circle of points deductions.

Good effort. But main thing today was Brentford losing.

This. The guy was a real talent, made his money then lost hunger to do well while still at Spurs. He's just happy to get a big contract and keep the money flowing. He's been with us 3 years now and shown nothing. Why the hell would we want him to stay. He's only showing an improvement in fitness...

If the choice is keep it as it is or get rid, I'd rather get rid. But I'd rather have a review system. Both teams get a review a half. If you win your appeal you keep your review.

13k is a big step up from Goodison. I'm confident we can fill it, but in the current climate we wouldn't fill 60k enough times to make it justifiable. When you have a ground with 50k + fans it's much of a muchness anyway. Imo atmosphere and match day experience is what counts. We won't know...

Many things make my blood boil from the whole PSR saga but having to flog our best players before the 30th of June to a scab 6 team (or European if lucky) takes the biscuit. It's so unfair and it's another punishment on top of the points and loss of prize money. I know a lot on here dislike...

If we can get away with just selling Onana then it'll have to be him. Branthwaite and Pickford are too important for us. But if the price is right we will sell anyone.

It's a yes from me but it also depends on the length of the contract. Our immediate priority is getting to the new ground in the top flight. The best way to achieve that is with Dyche. If the football is bad in 18/24 months time then we look at a change of direction.

Disgraceful
