I think it was Cardiff who lost the footballer this past weekend in a supposed plane crash? So sad.
He had just transferred from somewhere(Roma?) and was on a private plane to report to his new
club. Argentinian, I believe?
Ah yes! I think they broke their transfer fee as well for it. Terrible news. They stopped searching this weekend I believe.
Found an article with a good outline of events.
So very sad.
The search is back on! Looks like they flew through some terrible weather.
Looks like the crowd-sourced private search has found the plane! Amazing.
Hopefully the end result provides some closure for the family.
Tough loss today against Man City. Aguero took us apart. First 45 was mostly good. Defense was holding on. Hopefully against any other team that could be a win.
Back down into 6th. Below ManU! Theyāre playing too good.
I saw Ozilās wages are Ā£350,000 a week?!
Bargain! Haha.
Messi made $84 MM in salary last year. Ronaldo made $64 MM. Thatās just salary. Both topping out at around $110 MM for the year.
Sadly, it is no different than most other sports, I suppose.
I think thatās why Spurs built the new venue, to up revenues. Theyāve
been losing quality for years for lack of paying wages. Well, they said thatās
what it was. Time will tell.
Iām really looking forward to your Champions League matchup. Two great teams. Should be a good one. You all getting the big boys back in time for it?
Back to the money in pro sports, I just found out that Stan K, owner of Arsenal and LA Rams, a billionaire in his own right, is married to one of the Walton (Walmart) heirs (also a billionaire).
Stanās son, Josh, a director at Arsenal (and also in management of a collection of US pro hockey, soccer and bball teams) has talked about Rams coach McVay and Emery getting together to share coaching philosophy. Josh wants to win the CL. Thatās the mission. Not the league. But the CL.
'Arry and Dele still out. Son back from duty in S. Korea. Iām worried, but Iām always worried. Spurs have a way of disappointing SO often.
Kronke(sp) is one of the good guys, I think? Iām sure Brits donāt like all the American owners(I understand)
but the guyās got the money and will spend it.
Thereās already talk of Poch going to Man U or one of the big Spanish sides, and after NO transfers these last two windows, itās hard to blame him for looking. These new grounds have been a BIG financial drain and I understand another delay is comingā¦
On a totally different note, Iām, frankly, surprise that more on here arenāt weighing in on their favourite side.
Shitte. IF an Arse supporter and Tottenham supporter can chat as much as we have, there must be others who we hate less?
The world is a changingā¦ maybeā¦
We know all about that, unfortunatelyā¦
Sad newsā¦ The cheese room is no more.
Thatās it! I am now a West 'Am supporter!
Nice win. I thought the Dortmund game would be way more competitive, but you guys ran them out the door! Congrats.
Bayern v Liverpool tomorrow. Should be exciting!
Thanks. Pleasantly surprised, to say the least.
Donāt like Scousers.
Then weāre both hoping for a Liverpool loss, I think I can say. Excellent!
Tough match against Burnley. What happened?!?
Tough stretch next 3 games. Man U, Arsenal and back to CL.
