English Premier League & Other Club Football Thread

I was going to get onto this. Bookies including Betfair should be forced to site their HQs on the UK mainland so as to be subject to normal taxes. Have you seen how much money is traded on an average EPL game?

You didn’t get an admission of anything, because I hadn’t claimed the opposite. :grinning:

Quite obviously Sky’s involvement was the seed for what’s become a somewhat grotesque (though entertaining) circus thanks to billions pumped in by the uber rich. The game would be much better and more sustainable without the latter and with a more equitable dispersal of Sky and bookie revenues.

Kids growing up used to look at the likes of Derby, Forest, even Palace and be able to dream that maybe one day the same could happen to their local team. Now what dreams do they have? That some borderline criminal or state gangster billionaire buys up their club?

Bookies are required to give 10% of profits to horse racing to help sustain the sport. They should be required to do something similar to football teams that don’t get Sky money.

PSG do look good and that shot from outside the box :scream:

Bayern’s press looked formidable early.

Geez Mbappe wow

Can’t take your eyes off this :eyes:

0 goals for the greatest team of all time :thinking:

We scored late on on Saturday…

Ohh Bayern :grimacing: Just you wait…

FINANCIAL JUSTICE

Unmarked

Yea it really was. Kimmich making everyone say “Phillip who?”

159 goals this season & counting :+1:

Big time asterisk

Barca would have won the 2nd leg 6-0

Neuer proving he is by miles still the best GK in the world. Mbappe looking mighty fraudish tonight.

PSG hates making the extra pass

Same backside shin save he made earlier on Marquinhos. Ridiculous.

Clear PK

1st team to win all their games in the Champion’s League…

I lold
