Patrik Farkas has gone on loan to Prescot Cables until January. Hopefully he will get some game time in the NPL which is the lowest level we should be sending loanees to in my opinion.

Wow, I really thought he'd played 2 or 3 times that much. Maybe we have judged him a bit too quickly, given he actually looked fairly decent in his first game or two. Older players have been crap for far longer than that before coming good.

Euros Play the Nations League as Euro qualifying. Top 24 qualify for finals - all group A teams and top two teams in group B’s - no games against outclassed opponents. Nations League becomes more meaningful. It stops running Nations League and Euro qualifiers at the same time. World Cup European Qualifying split into 16 groups of 4 teams, seeded on Nations League divisions. Each group contains a team from league A, B, C and D. Winner qualifies. Only 6 games played per group. 2 games played in November. 4 games played in June. - less internationals overall but a mini tournament feel about June. Less outclassed games ✅ Slightly less international breaks ✅ Nations League made more important ✅

JDT by the sounds of his post. Imagine seeing everything that has happened here in the past few years and still thinking that JDT was the problem.

You say 'people still will' with such authority. I know of Rovers fans who, before this came in, who would go to a local game during international breaks. Now they just watch them on tv. Having shown them before is irrelevant, my point still applies.

I wouldn't, I am not the slightest bit interested in international football.. It is the pits!

So how are we supposed to qualify if we stop mid-season qualifiers? Play them in June? I'm sure you'll be one of the people waving England flags cheering on next summer

I'd rather watch England than watch rovers play pitifully against second rate teams

What a huge surprise(not)!!!

If they didn't want to then they wouldn't have done it.

Who said he thinks he is so smart?

You would be very naive if you think that the Premier League's attitude would be that they already generate enough money. Greed will take over. Other leagues are setting a precedent and global fans will no longer be satisfied with second strings playing friendlies. Eventually English games will be played abroad. Its a depressing likelihood. The only question is when.

They didn't want to. Plus the PL is the biggest league in the world and the richest aswell. They go to different countries in pre season and have fan fares in USA Just look at TV deals for PL coverage compare to other leagues. Sky and TNT paid £6.7bn for domestic rights. International TV rights is similar amount. The PL is a global brand when has other top leagues aren't. https://www.premierleague.com/en/media/broadcasters

Looks like Sweden won't be at the World Cup with only 1 point after 3 qualifying matches. That despite having Isak and Gokeres. JDT not as smart as he thinks he is.

I didn't realise you were a member of the London branch back then. It seems we played cricket together! I was down in the Smoke from 86 until 93

Coming to a football club near you.....

So what should England do? Not bothered with a friendly? I don't see why we need 3 international breaks before Christmas. Some of that 11 will be deffo starters like Rice, Saka, Anderson

We all knew that before. Watkins is completely different striker to Kane, and we that well before that game

You are correct that we shouldn't have rebuild Wembley but took national games around the country. It would have benefited all football fans around the country but also the economy.

People still will for their football fix if they want to. They shown games at 3pm during previous international football breaks.

I would rather watch NWCFL. Than international football.. Time these international weekends were stopped!

Elliott Anderson has played himself not just in the world cup squad but actually into the starting 11. I only see 3 spots in the starting 11 open. That's left back, attacking midfielder and Left wing. Rest of the spots are done for me fitness permitting. Pickford James Stones Guehi Left back Anderson Rice Attacking midfielder Saka Left winger Kane

That's why I'm surprised that Rangers want Gerrard cos of his tax bill. McInnes I could deffo the logic. Same with Rohl

SG possibly asking Sevco to pay his tax bill?
