I get what you’re saying but if we finish 6th and win a cup it suggests we have progressed as a team and can look forward to more success in the future . Whereas if we win a cup but finish 14th it suggests we have got lucky in a knockout...

The latest from Gianni Balzarini is that Douglas Luiz's agent is back in Italy and promises Juventus that he'll turn up for training next week. He seems to think Luiz messed up by not showing up and needs to repair his image for his future club...

I don’t blame the players , I blame the game , the administrators past and present who have eroded its standards for the sake of their own personal greed and prestige . Who sold out to the television companies. Who lacked any moral stature to...

I loved football back then . Best days of my life. Every aspect of it was superior. It was our game then . We were supporters , now we’re consumers. And the crowds may have been smaller but the atmosphere and noise generated dwarfs today’s efforts .

I miss a lot of what football was about and it’s certainly not the working mans game . However I think it’s easy to forget what football was like 70’s and 80’s . It was hardly family friendly back then was it ? We won the the league in the 80’s...

I say what I see about our recruitment. I've been very unimpressed for years with our recruitment and I need to see action before I will say things have changed. I don't think I'm being negative for the sake of it. I don't think anyone can...

If all the professional footballers vanished overnight , the world would survive . They are part of the leisure and entertainment industry. The world would survive and prosper without them .

The problem with football isn’t the agents it’s the obscene wages that footballers earn . For kicking a bag of air around a park ? Its ridiculously distasteful. But it is what it is . The world is insane .

It is a tough balance, but when you need as many players as we do, then you need to be pragmatic. Yes you want to try and get your number 1 or 2 target, but there comes a point where you have to move on and make sure that you still get someone...

Newcastle demonstrate this better than anyone. They have owners who have more spending power than all of the other Premier League owners combined. But with PSR they can’t spend it. They could buy any player and offer any amount of wages but the...
