  1. Unless its a limited run of 3
  2. In a moral sense, we're always above them
  3. and this is why I get in to arguments in pubs
  4. I had to look into this because I had a Mandela moment thinking that the back panel WAS a new rule. Came across this on the UEFA website..... Article 54 Measurement of colour contrast 54.01 The UEFA administration measures the contrast of colours used on playing attire using a spectrophotometer to provide an objective means of decision-making. 54.02 Measurements are taken using a spherical spectrophotometer with an aperture of 6.6mm and a measurement area of 4mm on a white-point of D65 and a Standard Observers Angle of 10°. A spectrally neutral 18% Reflectance Grey Card is placed under the single layer of fabric to be measured, and each final measurement is calculated from the average of three readings, at 0°, 90° and 45°. 54.03 The contrast between shirt colours in the number zone must be less than or equal to a Delta L of 25. Colour combinations with a Delta L difference value greater than 25 require a single-colour patch on the back of the shirt to serve as the number zone. 54.04 Player numbers must contrast with the background colour(s) in the number zone by a Delta L value equal to or higher than 30. 54.05 Tonal prints must be included in a tonal variation of the (background) colour(s) of the item of playing attire into which they are incorporated, with a contrast that is less than or equal to a Delta L value of 10. Background colours are measured before the associated tonal print. 54.06 Jacquard weave thread must be included in a thread that must be the same colour as the fabric into which it is woven. The jacquard weave must not dominate, contain a colour that contrasts with, or otherwise affect the distinctiveness of the item of playing attire into which it is incorporated. When measured, the contrast between the two weaves must be less than or equal to a Delta L value of 5. Background colours are measured before the associated jacquard weave thread. Its a bit mindboggling that the authorities go into so much detail about what thread must be used but can't get the handball laws sorted
  5. Add another 0 on his release clause quick!
  6. I hope youre right mate, but not sure DCs head works like that
  7. He's really shot himself in the foot with stuff like that given one of the main directives of the IFR is to improve fan engagement
  8. Even though it's there in black and white, it just doesnt feel likely it would ever happen. Its one thing giving a regulator the power, but its another thing them actually using it. In fact they would do everything possible to avoid it imo. Unless their was an immediate risk of losing a club. First time it gets applied, it will probably end up going to judicial review
  9. My understanding is they can disqualify somebody from taking control of a club. They cant disqualify someone who is already an owner unfortunately I think going in to admin is the only realistic way he will go
  10. I totally understand some peoples reluctance to use Paypal. My account was hacked at the start of last year. TBF they sorted it out pretty quick, but the initial shock of getting notification yould just made a 4 grand purchase put me off using it again
  11. There are burger vans at the side of the road that have card machines Well run club
  12. No bobble hats but we do a nice line in stuffed elephants and blue and white dinosaurs
  13. Its Friday afternoon, its been a long week and I dont finish till 5. Are there any cheerful Hillsborough videos out there to cheer me up? ''Most puppy-friendly Football Club'' or something?
  14. Can anyone play devils advocate and explain to me the logic in his head that led to thinking this was the right thing to do? What did he hope this would achieve? It just baffles me
  15. Apostrophes and everything. A+
  16. This is why black and white polls (and statements) can be misleading If you ask the question Chansiri out?, you'll get an overwhelming Yes. Most people want better than the mess we have at the moment. Change the question to Chansiri out and Dave Allen back in (or similar), you'll get a different response. DC vs Richards, DC vs Mandaric again different responses. For me, any buyer who has a basic level of credibility would be worth the risk as I dont see how the club can move forward with the current owner. But as hard as it seems to believe right now, there are even worse than DC out there
  17. 7/1 and Burnley were 8/1
  18. Tried it before. Vader got all sulky and took the ball home
  19. Nobody's dropping BB for an Avenger
  20. I havent fished since I was 10, but these videos are starting to make me want to have a go. Theyre still in the water where I remember them being, yeah?
  21. Likes to play 4 at the back Likes his team to attack from wide positions Likes his team to pressure high up the pitch when not in possesion Supposedly a nice guy who united a toxic dressing room at Watford Plays 433/ 4231 Solid defensively This is stuff Ive read over the last few days obviously. Sounds a good appointment if he can get the right players in
  22. Had to go to Manchester this morning for work. I saw a buzzard, a kestrel and a sparrowhawk at various points of the journey. Excitement highlight of the week so far
