Mason Greenwood is apparently having a baby with the woman he was accused of assaulting.

Given the timelines, the conception occurred while the charges were still active and he wasn't allowed any contact with her, and that's why all of the charges were dropped a few weeks ago.

I knew they were back together now but jesus christ, that's depressing

Barcelona face corruption charges over referee payments scandal - report

quote:

Prosecutors are seeking corruption charges against Barcelona and former president Josep Maria Bartomeu following the unearthing of payments to the former vice president of the refereeing committee, judicial sources have confirmed to Spanish news agency EFE.

Until now, former referee Jose Maria Enriquez Negreira had been the sole focus of the investigation for payments worth €1.4 million received from Barca between 2016 and 2018.

Are there any levers they can pull to get out of this?

No English news article to link to on this one yet, as the news broke late in the evening, but it turns out that the sports desk for Dutch public broadcast television has been absoltuely dire. A report came out tonight, with credible evidence, that for more than twenty years several major presenters fostered a toxic workplace culture including notable presenters having affairs with interns half their age, and aggressive bullying of anyone in the editing room who didn’t support Ajax, including one of the biggest names in Dutch football reporting screaming in the face of a PSV-supporter when PSV conceded a goal in a European match.

And the cherry on the poo poo-sundae is that the wife of that presenter, Tom Egberts (who was the aforementioned screaming bully, and also one of the guys having affairs with women half his age, and also referred to her as ‘the serpent’ when discussing her with colleagues after she broke it off) is married to the woman leading the organisation that was founded a few years ago to give people a place to file reports of abuse and (sexual) harassment in the Dutch entertainment industry after a major sex abuse scandal broke at the Dutch edition of The Voice.

And the worst part is, the people in charge of sports broadcasting knew that all of this was going on. Not only did female staff members and interns circulate e-mails amongst themselves warning each other to stay away from certain men, multiple women have come forward stating that when applying for internships, they were flat-out told by the managers of sports broadcasting that they shouldn’t apply to have certain men as mentors because ‘they didn’t know how to behave themselves around women’.

Wait, so Egberts' wife is married to another woman as well? How many spouses does she have?

Rumours that his daughter is shagging another gang member. That's pretty much it for management in England for him I reckon. Football isn't boxing, you can't just hang out with wanted crime families. Unless he's planning on going to Italy or South America I guess.

Little (24) from the Drimnagh area of Dublin, has been identified by CAB in the High Court as being a low-level member of the Byrne Organised Crime Group.

He is close pals with Liam Byrne’s son Lee.

Lee has no involvement in crime and is going out with Gerrard’s daughter Lilly-Ella.

In recent weeks Gerrard posted pictures of himself on a night out with Little as well as Lee and Lilly and wished Little a happy birthday.

I was going to say he could come to Boston and manage the New England Revolution, but that area of the USA also gave the world drinks called the "Black & Tan" and the "Irish Car Bomb" for the lols.

There are no pictures of this but it's been widely reported that a completely nude Gianluca Mancini tried to fight Alessio Romagnoli after the latter decided it would be a good idea to go celebrate Lazio's derby win directly outside of the opposition locker room.

I don't think that a certain North London club will do that when the anonymous 29-year old footballer has been their best player this season, and if you pointed to certain results in their season you'd be made aware that said anonymous player was so anonymous they weren't even in the squad
