All 5 people including the chairman on that faithful Leicester chopper flight are officially pronounced dead.

RIP
 
Very sad. Leicester City completely transformed itself as a club under his leadership. Apparently was a major contributor to the city of Leicester as well, donations to hospitals and schools and such.

R.I.P.
 
Looks like Conte is off to Real Madrid. As he was going bald, but got hair implants, he's technically a bald fraud, so it should work out for them.
 
Wembley pitch is in an awful condition for Spurs vs. Man City this evening.

Not sure what they were thinking hiring him in the first place. Lopetegui didn't have the resume or the status (a la Zidane) to manage Real Madrid.
 
Apparently Florentino Perez is keen on Mauricio Pochettino but MP won't leave Spurs until the end of the season. Pochettino has been frustrated by the lack of progress with the new stadium and subsequent lack of funds for new players. Solari is going to be a stopgap until a permanent manager is appointed, Pochettino or whoever. Any new manager is likely to get a lot of backing in the transfer market next summer, something Zidane wasn't given for this summer just passed - hence why he left.
 
So Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece and Romania are introducing a joint bid for World Cup 2030. This is going to be hilarious. :lol:
Is one of the countries in pre-elections period? That would explain the "bid".

We have 2 stadiums that have a standard. A really low one, but still a standard. And even they would need to be refurbished top to bottom twice.

Fake news, sad!

That doesn't mean anything, the bid is for 2030. You can build multiple top class stadiums in that time frame if you want to.
 
Dude, this is Serbia we're talking about. If we build one big and functional stadium before 2030, World Cup or not, I'd be shocked.
