We lost.
We have kept losing all season.
We can’t score for love nor money.
That’s why we are down – not because Huddersfield have rested players today.The point is that if the sport hypes betting so much, it must be seen to be way above suspicion that those involved in the game could influence the results. It’s the same as horse racing.
Good point GL though Barton didn’t try to influence results he just has a gambling habit. Just think 18 months is harsh at his age.[/quote]
He may not have tried to influence results (or at least as far as we know), but as they say “rules is rules”. The line is already drawn as to who can bet and who can’t – and he can’t.
As for the length of the ban. Again the rules are there for te integrity of the game, and breaching them puts the game potentially into disrepute, so the authorities come down hard. His age is irrelevant. The fact that the ban probably means the end of his career is not a reason to be lenient, any more than giving an 80 year old a 20 year jail sentence (slightly different, I know, but the same principle).

One up top isn’t a problem if you have attacking midfielders, to support the front man.
Our problem is we don’t.Blackburn can actually have two draws.
Their goal difference now is -15; two draws would keep it the same.
We have -16, but two wins would take that to -14 even if only 1-0s.We had a love, a love, a love you don’t find everyday
So don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t let it slip awayBaby, baby, baby, baby
I beg you please, please, please, please
I need your love, need your love
I need your love, I need your love
So bring it on back, so bring it on back
Bring it on back, bring it on backBring back that lovin’ feelin’
Whoa, that lovin’ feelin’
Bring back that lovin’ feelin’
‘Cause it’s gone, gone, gone
And I can’t go on, wohIf we win both our remaining games (against teams who are fighting for promotion to the Premier League, not even considering the fact that we have hardly scored this season never mind won), and Birmingham lose their remaining two and Blackburn don’t win either of theirs – then we will stay up.
It’s *just* possible – it isn’t one of those “if X lose by 10-0” scenarios – it’s just about possible – if we can get two wins.
I’m going to go driving while on my mobile phone tomorrow.
That’s 6 points in the bag.
He has to date personally invested ten million in the clubWe received 7 million for 1 player![/quote]
You really haven’t a clue how football finances work, have you?
The owner of Fleetwood is minted. Not exactly a “limited” budget.He has to date personally invested ten million in the club
Donny sharpy said 1m for desso pitch would stretch the clubs budget bllx i ask what has happened to the 7m yanic money
Oh sorry earning a nice tidy monthly interest for the whelan family i betSo you reckon the £7m will vanish from the club’s accounts and nobody will notice?

The sad thing is that he really does think that
Personally I never leave early but equally I wouldn’t castigate (excellent word) anyone who does.
That’s their decision.
Just like away fans singing about how poor our crowds are. I’m here, I’m staying to the end, so sing “is there a fire drill” or “your support is ****ing ****” at me all you like. I’m not bothered. “This is a s***hole, I wanna go home”. Go. I never asked you to come.
Similarly for our fans if you want to go early, then go. If you aren’t coming for the last whatever number of games left, or are not renewing your season ticket, or you’re only picking your games, fine; it’s nothing to do with me.
