From their website (so new front of shirt sponsor needed?): We are delighted to announce that we are to become the new front of shirt sponsor for Blackburn Rovers for the upcoming 24-25 season. Having had a long affiliation with the club, this agreement represents an exciting statement and move forward in the branding of our practice both locally and nationally. With the agreement of this deal, Watson Ramsbottom will be displayed on all first team, Under-21s and replica kits, as well as being back of shirt sponsors for the Women’s team.

If that’s the case why did the Indian authorities seize property to the value of all the monies sent rather than just to the value of the tax avoided?

FFP looks at potential future (in the next two years) breaches too which can lead to business plans being imposed on a club.

There ain’t no party like a S Szmod party.

Portugal are undoubtedly a talented team but boy is it easy to hate them.

How to waste two hours work in three kicks.

You’re allowed to these days as long as you’re not at the ball when you do so.

Slovenia aren’t very good at shooting

Got to score that

No, let him be on to miss the decisive shoot out pen

I thought Jota ran straight into him. Agree on Ronaldo though 😀

Ronaldo lol

Ronaldo is being a tad selfish tonight.

Whatever you do, get the money first.

I would have but I’ve seen someone’s beaten me to it 👍

4) They can’t send funds but they’re going to anyway

UEFA have ethics?

I’d lean towards them not being able to send money but I can certainly see a scenario where they can. Of course as you (and others) have pointed out this is completely different as to whether they will. Time will tell but I for one am not holding my breath.

The below is from the strategic report (in the club’s accounts) dated 19th December 2023. This shows ‘at this point’ Venky’s still needed the court’s permission to send further monies. There’s been nothing from the court since to suggest anything has changed but I guess that doesn’t preclude some sort of arrangement being made ‘out of court’ with the Directorate of Enforcement.

Indeed, still more than most of them though…

I’d make that choice at any stage of my career 😁

Turns out his geography is on a par with Savage’s.

He didn’t use to seem this way. Maybe it’s part of moving to Madrid.

If only this could have been predicted.
