League Cup games on Sky

Man U v Burnley (against the law not to show Man Utd and of course thr game has a Man City link with Kompany at Burnley)
Man City v Liverpool

Feel for Gillingham. Lowest team left in the Cup against a Prem team with a new manager and they don't get a TV pay day

I think Ronaldo has been a twat with how he's gone about things, but I don't think he's wrong. I see him more of a symptom of man United a fall from grace rather than a problem.

He probably should have kept his thoughts on ten Hag to himself though and the petty bollocks with Rooney (ooooh doesn't he look rough) and Neville (famous because he talks about me.....don't think so pal) and they won't get a dinner invite from me (probably for the best as you don't do desserts)

 

[Kenny]

also on the state of the club and the facilities did he not have a look before he signed again?
Calling the owners a marketing team.....zero awareness of why they are signing you then (also should rule him out every joining us)

 

[Langers]

It's called respect.

Doesn't matter if there's some truth to what he's said - you don't publicly slag off your employers and fellow professionals in such a twattish way.

He should have wrapped it up better saying club needs stripping out and rebuilding, which sounds fair enough (I mean jacuzzi technology has come on a bundle in the last 10years) instead of which we had the all about me bollocks being betrayed and disrespected plus the spoilt brat shit.
He wants the gig Messi has, jogging about for a dominant club with others doing the hard work whilst he bangs in the goals, he isn't going to get it now.

 

[b3h]

I reckon he should be mad at his agent for sending him back there

 

[jd1981]

If it’s true the way the club behaved around his daughter’s illness then they’re a disgrace.
Regardless after that it’ll leave a sour taste in your mouth.
After that there’s some very unpalatable outing of a lot of people which is unfair.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Toney charged with betting rules breaches.

 

[Tony Towner]

Over 200 over 4 years. Seems like a sizeable ban is coming his way in addition to arguably costing him a WC place

 

[The Bear]

Toney charged with betting rules breaches.

232 breaches too!

Trippier got a 10 week ban for just 4 breaches.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Eek. That sounds like he is right in the shit if proven.

 

[AndyWolves]

Bet Jeff has a deal to sign him

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

232 breaches too!

Trioouer got a 10 week ban for just 4 breaches.

Trioouer

I mean it looks shit and he's an idiot for doing it full stop as everyone knows the rules, but he could have been putting on a £5 acca once a week for four years or so, which isn't exactly crime of the century.

It's fucking daft imo. I understand not allowing them to bet on games involving their team but banning them from gambling on football altogether is well over the top. What's the reasoning for it.'

Insider information / the ability to alter games through that network. I agree it's rubbish and out of keeping with the 'crime'.
It's all sports though, look at Calvin Ridley vs. Deshaun Watson for out of perspective punishments

The same rules don't apply to journalists or agents who would probably be privy to even more information than footballers.

Ridley actually bet on his own team though, I know it's to win. Even so I'm not too angry about that, obviously it's harsh compared to that sexual predator but he shouldn't be playing at all, ever.

 

[b3h]

Didn't know that. How far down the leagues does that rule go?

 

[YoungWolf]

Basically applies to anyone working at a football club. I'm not allowed to either. My friend who worked as a part-time analyst in National League-Southern Premier League told me they can't either
