Example 1 was ridiculous- I’ll grant you that, it’s still going on a month later

I have seen that much about the Newcastle handball - there was a lot of (justifiable) outrage the next day but after that I haven’t seen much. And I watch all the Newcastle channels - we’ve moved on

Haven’t seen anything much about the City “advantage”, again even though I understand why they would be seriously pissed off

Basically, I think you’re watching too much social media (shrug)

I don’t see how a salary cap could possibly work globally, and if it was introduced on a local or regional basis you’d just drive more players to other places.

I also suspect that UEFA do SO much to appease the “superleague clubs” they would never approve it.

May also be against employment legislation in lots of places

It only works in the US because the teams are franchises and the players are contracted to the league itself (correct me if I’m wrong?)

But if you can convince me it would work, I don’t necessarily object…

It was always going to be an advantage to the richer clubs who could afford to have more and better subs, giving them more chance of winning late in the game

Since so many people here are fans of those bigger clubs, you’re probably right that it will be an unpopular decision.

He’s been crap every time he played against us for Chelsea. I just hope somebody’s explained to him what “shit Coloccini” means!

That’s disgraceful - in my book that should have been a yellow for Joelinton (he shouldn’t have shoved back, no matter the provocation) and 2 yellows for the cheating twat De Paul - for the grabbing of Joelinton and then the blatant play acting of clutching his face

This needs a “misleading headline” tag - the headline is not supported by the article

According to the article itself, when asked about whether Newcastle would fight such changes he said “[y]ou could make that assumption”

So they might vote against, but so what?

He also said they would obey any rules introduced.

Non story

Is there any decent video of this?

The one I saw, it looks like he stretched down for a second, but that’s all you could see.

Maybe he threw something, but even with a lot of imagination at most it looked like he was flicking it off the pitch

Again, not what you’d call a big fan of Chelsea or Sterling (and I won’t cry if he’s suspended against us) but they better have more to go on than the video I’ve seen to be even talking about this?!

This is a much better clip than the other one that was posted.

Seeing all that takes it from “harsh handball” to wtaf?! Not the biggest fan of Liverpool, but that’s just stupid.

You missed out the Brutus…
