A statue of England captain Harry Kane has been hidden in storage for years because councillors cannot find a home for itquote:Waltham Forest Council in north-east London allocated £7,200 in 2019 and 2020 to have the sculpture made of the Chingford-raised footballer. "We can't install it for reasons we can't disclose but rest assured they are legitimate. Also you can't see it" lmao they've spent 7k on a statue that's so poo poo they're embarrassed to install it

If they paid 7k for it total and it’s not made of mdf or whatever then the artist fee must have been pretty small, which would imply a poo poo artist

in other news, world's greatest owner Big Jim Ratcliffe has said that he wants to build a big beautiful 114,001-seater stadium that's so tall you can actively spit on the south from the top, and that he's going to make them pay for it* https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68358222 *some mild paraphrasing

This is not very good. https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1760597547024846861 I think Dalot is United's only fit fullback at the moment.

Say what you will about the North American salary cap/luxury tax system, it's clear, simple, and applies the same to everyone. "Here is a Number, you either can't go above it at all or have to pay X amount if you go above it." Of course, there's no way in Hell the big clubs would ever agree to anything like that, so instead we've got the FFP rules which seem to operate on pure Calvinball logic. One wonders why they even bother. Everton could very well be docked another six points later this year. Forest can't be feeling good about their chances either. What will happen? Will it be fair? Too harsh? Not harsh enough? No one fuckin' knows.

Every league should adopt La Liga's system of setting preemptive spending caps before each season instead of docking clubs points years later (unless they shred the documents and sue you in which case you just let them carry on)

deletebeepbeepbeep posted:Sam Jewell is the reason why Brighton got Caicedo (when Man Utd gave up) as he has a lot of experience and contacts negotiating with South American agents. Listening to Paul Barber & Tony Bloom, they have basically replacement lists with candidates for every position because they know they are a smaller club who can get poached at any time. Of course it's a loss but Brighton have done well with replacement across the board. I think the biggest loss for Brighton will be De Zerbi, if he leaves. He is like that rare mix of innovation but passion all the top managers like Pep, Jose and Klopp have. The guy goes absolutely crazy when they score.
