There'd not be any challengers, we'd be untouchable.

They've covered losses that were only incurred due to their own very deliberate actions. That is not investment.

And we've still not signed a replacement for Adam Armstrong.

They've not invested anything. Ever. Hence our current situation.

We've actually made a bid for someone https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/blackburn-rovers-submit-175m-coventry-city-transfer-offer/

John Coltrane - By The Numbers

May as well not bother having the competition at all. Just put the 6 richest clubs in the bucket an pick out the winner. Less fixture congestion and they can play even more European matches. Sorted.

The Who - Daddy Rolling Stone

You just answered your own question there, unless of course you were being rhetorical.

That's my expectation.

A cavernous difference between Rovers and West Brom in terms of ambitions though.

I want another one like the last one.

Little Richard - Long Tall Sally

I'll amend the thread to include actual links.

Then they should put the effort in to win it in normal time. That's the point of the replay. These players and clubs can't bitch about playing too many matches when they will happily play meaningless internationals and early round European games. Why not protest against these fixtures being constantly piled on rather than bastardising and stripping all value out of the oldest competition in the world?

Or just keep the replays and get rid of the pointless international & European games.

More venky bullshit to stop an expensive transfer no doubt.

Earning the replay itself was a win for the smaller clubs, especially if they got to go play a premiership side away. Now that's been taken away from them. Stealing from the poor to give to the rich as per usual.

Bob Dylan - The Times They Are A Changin'

And many so-called fans as well.

I don't think it will take that long.

Beattie. Unfortunately we got rid of him for that fat dolloper.

But instead they got pumped in extra time rather than earning a replay. With a replay on offer they smaller team can set up to be a solid defensive unit and play for the draw. Without the replay they have to try and win it in normal time as they will run out of steam come extra time as we saw with the spurs match. It's just shit and as per usual it's all about making life easier for the biggest and richest clubs.

You mean chaddy's workmates?
