Everton - Brand New Stadium seriously fucking them over financially and facing a potential 12 point deduction for their financial affairs
- £500million and rising by the day
Aston Villa - One new stand + upgrade to other 3 (10000 extra seats), new multi use venue/ fanzone, 6500sqm landscaping and new club shop
- £100million + rising by the day
Ulter GAA - Brand new Stadium
- Min £130million + rising by the day
Man City - North stand expansion (7900 extra seats), new hotel, Tv studio and 3000capacity fan zone
- Min £300million + rising by the day
Newcastle - Club just started talking about expanding St James Park again (13000 extra seats - allegedly partly to avoid getting done by FFP rules).
- I Estimate min. £120million to due restricted site

Be surprised if hampden gets £15million once all that has been siphoned off
 

Forest supporting cousin says its just down to the manager not picking him over the new signings.

Burton Albion calling?

By the time they have bailed out Everton, wasted several million on consultants who I thoroughly expect to then say redevloping Casement Park is not worth it so just move the Belfast games to London, given a large wedge to G4S to errect 1mile radius herras fences encircling all the grounds, and given Club wembly several licks of paint, there should be just enough left over to replace a couple of locks and/or doors missing from the other stadium toilets.

I believe we collected 166,000 euros for the point gained which is something like £143,000 pounds sterling.

 

I know we got £2.5 million or near about for just being in Group stage but is £140K really going to help the club coffers and if so could that amount be something that covers the plane journey cost to Frankfurt?

+ large crowd (tickets,hospitality merchandise, food, drink, halftime draw etc).

Im assuming season tickets werent valid so allowing for expenses/ costs club might have earned 300-400k on top of the 143k 'prize money'

well that sucks.

Beale emptied by the blue bigots. 
 

That will have cost them a fortune to pay him off. 

38month pay off. 6months more than hibs had to fork out

With SEVCO tv commentary.

Misses out the red card

Just seen the 'chance' at the end. Certainly not as easy as the text commentary made out. 
 

Sad to say I agree with Elgindon's prediction for Sunday

Aberdeen
Frankfurt
PAOK
HJK Helsinki
 

Love how this draw system works

KI knocked Hacken out of the Champions League but end up in the Conference

So… are we in pot 4 tomorrow?

Is Joe Lewis stood on a box??
Didnt think Neil Mccann was that short

well this is fun.
A defence that looks like its outnumbered every time Hacken come forward.
A striker who can't score a one on one
Another who falls over if someone breathes on him
And every other corner hitting the first defender

Kneejerk as fuck

Think the only way Duk is scoring tonight (if ever again) is a 3 yard tap in.

That Hun own goal is a work of art. 

Does this mean that they steal 50% of our well deserved Euro cash if we win tomorrow?

 

60% apparently

Sadly Silva's loyalty in modern game is very rare nowadays at top level.  Wishful thinking at least

'Loyalty' is alot easier when you play for one of the richest teams in the world.
Its pretty hard for another club to tempt you away when they can't match/ improve your wages.

When your main career will naturally end before you reach 40 assuming you don't get crippled by a mistimed tackle, loyalty is a luxury you may not be able to afford

Scotty Pippen's Chicago Bulls career springs to mind.

4 years eh?    sounds expensive

32month payout. Ker-ching 

432 allegedly

Hibs on fire.

Will next weekends game at pittodrie see old Lee exiting the main stand straight after the full time whistle?

Away end sold out again.

no pressure

Miovski's control for this goal is a thing of beauty.

Leadser of the Wagner group seemingly dead in a plane crash.

Slightly less subtle than falling out of a window

Hibs and Hearts - Personally wouldnt rule either of them out of beating Villa and PAOK over 2 Legs

I take it back

One thing I personally hope doesnt become a legacy of the tournament is the american style referee announcements after a VAR decision. 

Although it would be interesting to see how many scottish refs were able to keep the smugness out of their voice when they award a penalty to the Tic or SEVCO

The huns and tims are both vulnerable at the moment to be fair and he's got a plastic pitch. 

Seem to recall Sportsound mentioned its going to be ripped up and replaced with grass soon.
