In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

The sport of football needs 100 Martin Calladines

A fun thing to do whenever a manager complains about expected goals is to google their name and "better chances." Sometimes you get something especially beautiful like "At the start of the season you can ignore this and hope it levels itself out"

A lot of discussion is understandably taking place about the rules on multi-club ownership groups.
The best approach would be to ban them. They have no legitimate purpose - creating two-tier football in pursuit of allowing rich people to buy sporting advantage.

Sports is one of the few arenas where billionaires come up against employees who they cannot easily direct and where they frequently face humiliating outcomes, but it seems never to teach them humility.
Seemingly, by the time you become a billionaire, the damage is irreversible.
