Another blatant Football Manager signing. They don't have any idea about the value of money these days and just buy players because they are rated highly on the game.

Blackpool fined 25 grand for fielding a weakend team against Villa in November.

Is it correct that the team for that day were all included in the 25 players the Premier League forces you to name before the start of this season?

You've got the quote marks in the wrong place I think, just like Joey off friends. He has gone, there's no apparently about it. Whether he "resigned" or was sacked is another matter.

It hadn't been confirmed before I posted it. Just rumours flying around on Twitter.

I don't really follow any foreign leagues tbh so not really seen him play. That a loan deal or permanent? What is your judgment on him?

Plays mainly on the left wing but I've seen him put in the middle. Rapid but injury prone.

That Blackpool fine is ridiculas.

Didn't Holloway say he'd resign if they were fined? Worked for Harry, obv Blackpool are big enough.
