As noted in another thread about this...

This does all sound a little bit Power and Standing so what sanction they get could be interesting.... https://www.efl.com/news/2023/july/efl-statement-barnsley-fc

£105m for a player between English clubs. Not even a great player just a decent player.

A lot of money, isn't it? Alternatively you could think of it as two Marc Cucurellas, which sounds like a bargain!

Supposedly the 8th highest fee of all time. A surprising amount of the Top 20 went... less than well.

Not sure what thread it was on, but there was some chat about football programmes slowly being phased out of the game. I note that Crawley Town have discontinued their programme. (for the 2023/2024 season) This has caused some rightful dismay as their Player Sponsorship that was advertised specifically states will get a mention in the matchday programme.

I personally stopped buying a programme a long while back but I can remember as a kid going to my grandfather's house in Stratton and reading through his collection. (he was a Pompey fan) I would spend hours on end looking through results and statistics. (mainly looking for Swindon games to be honest) I know some people still love a programme but as with anything, I guess they have a shelf life.

Are we sure they're not publishing each page of the program as an NFT?

I have a feeling they are fucked financially and this is all part of cost cutting. I don't really understand NFTs and don't really have any desire to!! Smiley
