Could be an interesting summer break for football will we finally see some long needed regulatory bodies brought in yesterday United,s game against Liverpool called off due to " protests " and yet again Sheffield Wednesday,s owner accused of failing to pay wages for April, so sad the game has been ruined in a lot of ways by pure greed hopefully a turning point for the better could be around the corner.

Don’t hold your breath, Andyd, especially if you hope a bunch of politicians can sort it out.:rolleyes:
And one of the main drivers behind the Premier League was to make it a club of 20, not 92, and to control its regulatory bodies.

Personally, I’d dock the Greedy Six at least 24 points for the start of next season.

There lies the problem they govern themselves, they won't punish the clubs yesterday for the postponed game, independent regulation is a minimum change to the game that is needed not brought about by government alone but a collective body of everyone involved.

doubt there will be much change really. as you have said the game is ruined by greed and with all the money that is around that will be the driving factor in the end. the only time there will be a big change is if one or more of the big six gets into real financial difficulty which is hard to imagine.

Here’s a possible pub quiz question for the future.
Which football team won/lost a Wembley Cup Final in a competition for which they were no longer eligible?

Hurt them the only way they know in the pocket, cancel sky subscription,s, watch a lower league club local to the " big " six, F A and Premier league stand up to them and stop any notion of breaking up the pryamid there will be change if you stand up to bully tactics.

how many but a few will do that. how many of those man.u fans who protested, if they go anyway, will not be back next august to see their new multi million pound signings. they say a week is a long time in politics. 3 months is a lifetime of old testiment years in football.

How have Oxford United managed to sign a player for an undisclosed fee on a three year contract yesterday was him being there on loan anything to do with it because pretty sure transfer window isn't open yet?

need help here. when a player is on loan at a club are they officially your player whilst at the club and not the parent clubs one.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 
The player in question is one Marcus Maguane on loan to Oxford from Nottingham Forest where upto yesterday was contracted until August 2022.

Re: Bits & Bobs
 
Been reading the rules not easy but I think you can sign a loan player at anytime Mr. T might throw some light on this.

I noticed Norwich announced they were signing a couple of loanees on permanent contracts. Said it was part of the loan deal if they got promoted.
