Anyone following the Everton/Burnley kerfuffle.

The ruling pretty much changes everything, if upheld.

[Peter]

Imagine how many similar cases there would be against City.

And what about Chelsea?

And what about Chelsea?

City were smart enough to buy off the right people in authority. School boy error from the scousers.

Practically the whole Premier League would want its pound of flesh. And half the Championship as well.

City's situation is certainly more complicated. They obviously don't care about profits. Even money. What their whole project is about is soft power and nation-branding. International prestige; integrating the UAE into the cultural fabric of Western entertainment and building a diplomatic shield through global goodwill. Finding them guilty of wrongdoing would be branding their entire state-backed apparatus as a fraudulent enterprise on the global stage.

Chelsea's owners would just sell up, sell their shares and move on to the next investment opportunity. Same with Friedkin at Everton if the heat gets too high.?

Excellent point on Man City and this might be a glimpse as to the reason why the 'punishment' for the 115 charges is so slow in coming. Think of the permutations in assessing the harm incurred as a result of their cheating! This is going to be fun.

Either it means they'll be absolutely hammered, or it means that they won't lol.

Actually, an Augean stables gambit could be just the thing that's needed. So it definitely won't happen.

Basically fans should be allowed to sue the state of Qatar, too. Every single won of those African Gooners, and their goats, should be paid being denied the buzz of winning the title each year we came 2nd to them Which I put at 5 figures a human and 4 figures a goat.

Our global fan base should mean we get all of Qatar's hydrocarbons for the next 115 years.

Do you have any goats in America, chief? The glw and I take Puddle Paws the cat out for walks in the park without a lead, but we never see any goats. I've seen videos of your bears breaking into boozers and looting the kitchen. And you've got those bears that munch leaping Salmon {not Marli} you can watch online.

Please tell me you have civilised animals not just dogs.

Why yes, GG, we do have those loveable yet pesky critters. Many type actually. We have your farm goats, used for goat cheese, etc. We also have a quite large Bosnian community here in St. Louis and when they settled in the late 90's all of a sudden we saw things like 'leg of goat' pop up in our grocery stores. Then you have your domesticated goats that a few have for pets, not common. Oh! We have Goat Yoga. Have you heard of it? Folks do their yoga bendy things while goats roam around the yoga studio climbing on the participants.
Then you have your mountain goats, usually found at high elevations in the Rockies. One time I had to wait most of an hour for them to clear the road at around 12,000 foot elevation in Colorado. They decided to have a lie down on the road because it was warm! Darn goats. Also, most proper petting zoos have goats. A youngster pays a dollar and gets a bottle of milk to give to the goats. Always amusing when the goats pass by the milk and start nibbling on the toddler's clothes!

I'd like to see your leadless cat out for a stroll! ????

That's wicked, Chief. I never knew you lot were into goats. You should see if the St Louis Arsenal Supporters Club has any fans of African heritage and whether they have any goats. I never knew you were into goat's cheese. The glw invented this starter when we first got together in the late '90s - slices of those large goat's cheese logs, under the grill with oyster mushrooms put on a bed of spinach. 'Tis lush.

What's American goat's cheese like? Do you have any of those logs or the ash coloured ones like Sainte-Maure de Touraine?

[Chief Arrowhead]

Our goat cheese is mostly in logs and flavored for breakfast I guess. You know, honey, blueberry vanilla, cinnamon. For like spreading on a bagel. If the missus buys it I eat it, but it's never on my grocery list.

Goat's cheese bagels are tops. Strangely, I never assumed Yanks would have decent cheese. {Bit like the Brits don't other than Stilton.} You have Monteray Jack and that sliced stuff you put on burgers. But you do goats' cheese? Wicked.

Do you like a burger, chief? I briefly had a gf in the '90s who lived on the things. Took her to the French West Indies {St Martin.} She found a gaff that did burgers with goats cheese and proclaimed them the best burger in history.

Try one at some point. Do your burger {grill, bbq , whatever} and use goats cheese not burger cheese. 'Tis lush.

Your St Louis Cardinals should get goats walking around before the game like the Bengals have tigers.

There are some amazing British cheeses; Cornish Yarg, Black Bob Cheddar, black bomber cheddar, decent red Leicesters and as you say Stilton, to name a few

Have we never lived in France, PSRB?

No, not lived, visited on many occasions..not saying their cheeses aren't excellent, just there are many fantastic British cheeses.
