Macherano sentenced to a year in prison for tax evasion....but he wont actually go to prison.
Apparently in Spain any sentence of under 2 years doesnt actually require you to go to prison (most of the time), unless you are deemed dangerous.
That'll learn him! |

Messi will probably end up with the same sentence if found guilty when his tax avoidance trial starts in May. |

To be fair Messi's is a bit different as it's quite clearly his dad that has managed his affairs and prosecutors even asked for the case against Messi to be dropped. In all hosesty I'll be surprised if any trial takes place as all he needs to do is threaten to leave Barca and they'll buckle as the money he's brought into Barcelona during his career will vastly outweigh anything that he would ever pay in tax. I went to watch them on Sunday against Bilbao and I'd say a quarter of the 68k crowd were there just to see Messi live and had travelled from all over the world, shame he went off at half time.... |

There's a pattern forming though, lot's of the clubs in serious trouble are around Manchester it seems. Hope they all get through and maybe get sensible in the future. Hopefully! Like we seem to be trying.

Yeah it is an odd one. Maybe the bottom 2 leagues are very low basic, with larger bonuses? |

What I do think is a fact is that batch has been on the beer, judging by the lack of any capitals..

Nah, he never capitalises his words when he posts from his phone.
It drives me mad.

Blimey. This in particular stuck out for me: Oldham were expected to announce the appointment of Kevin Russell to the coaching staff this week but revealed on Thursday that they could not agree a deal which would make it financially viable for the former Stoke and Wrexham striker to travel daily from his home in Stoke Still, it sounds like the directors are doing very nicely, flogging off the land to themselves. So that's OK (for them) |

The fan bases have supported these clubs well in the past and will hopefully do so again in the future. Other than the City/United regional mega-club issue, the current demise of some 'Lancashire' clubs appears to be down to unscrupulous?/delusional?/incompetent? leadership. They've had great support in the past, and hopefully, this could re-emerge to sustain their existence. |

Life's too short Sam. But what really drives me mad is the phones autocorrect. Or more accurately, autofuckitup. |
