    Also this. Seems like they are lying.

    How can possibly the biggest club in the world be making such a massive PR error? They’re going to become hated by everyone, they will lose marketing deals, and it will be an absolute nightmare.

    He probably won’t even be that good, as he hasn’t played football in so long. All this, for him.

    I'm in a queue that is giving me Eras tour flashbacks. Don't think I'm getting in to this game, boys.

    This will go down as a case study as perhaps the dumbest move a football club could make. Dumb as fuck.

    I'm gonna assume they got fucked over by their contract language if they're going forward with reintegration. Kinda like Arsenal and Partey.

    There's a middle ground between termination and reintegration though. Training alone or with the reserves for the duration of his contract would be allowed, many players get made to do it for lesser reasons (Niasse at Everton). Even a loan to some random club. Reintegrating to the first team squad is a conscious choice.
     
  10. Fab retweet the original tweet here earlier this morning. Now quoting it a few minutes ago. Something might be coming soon?

    I know he hasn’t lived up to the hype but he’s also only 20 years old lol he still shows huge potential imo

    Could be. Although I think it’s a little different.

    Arsenal couldn’t be seen to treat Partey differently because of it, as no charges were ever held against Partey. Meaning we couldn’t suspend him, and I doubt we could we drop him when his performances didn’t merit it. Personally, I wish we could just sell him or let him go.

    Greenwood was charged, and suspended. Bringing him back is probably different legally.

    What about their responsibility to their female members of staff?

    Just men looking out for men.

    This was written by an intellectual, definitely somebody with experience in PR. Let that sink in.

    The absolute gall to mention "as a new father with a partner" as well.

    I didn't realize Ticketmaster was using dynamic pricing at sporting events now. Got in and lolololol these prices. These aren't even resale.

  21. The row behind my seats for Charlotte have tickets listed for $650-700. It's absurd.

    Man, can you even afford to live for awhile if you do pay up?

    My buddy who lives in Nashville has a brother with two season tickets so he gets to go Saturday, can’t imagine you’d expect to see Messi in a final going into the year lol

    To be able to say I saw Messi play live once, I’d pay those prices if I could, haha

    I've seen Messi play in person three times for $130 combined.
