I lol'd at how they tried to get out of this like the players are the victims - gambling addicts so they need help and not punishment. pretty sure this was inspired by the drunk/stoned Hollywood celebs cases, although It's good to see that the concept of taking responsibility fuck your fuckups seems to be winning this time

As was pointed in the second article, the decision to hide behind closed doors was the breaking point and sparked the violence on the streets. Out national team is embarassment. Our club football is in shambles. When you unite the fans from Levski Sofia and CSKA Sofia to fight against you, you're done. Usually the hatred between us is unparalled. It's like Zvezda-Partizan. And Mihaylov still refuse to resign and save some dignity. He is constantly re-elected through rigged election processеs.

Exactly, the duty of care lies with the investors who made a calculated error or mistake and thinking they would profit from it. This is equivalent to me buying a product endorsed by a celebrity and not liking it or sustaining a medical complications and then suing the company. Come to think of why aren't they suing the company? They should be suing Binance instead of Ronaldo. He is also back in court for this matter. People would do anything for milking as much money as possible from people.

The new stadium looks great!

Similar situation for Everton fans like me.
We leave Goodison Park at the end of this season. It’s been our home since 1892.
It’s about 20 minutes walk away from where I live as well.
The new stadium is a bit further into the city centre, on the river front. It’s not quite finished yet, but it looks…

Welp GG for yesterday's derby @LostLegend @Hensmon. I think that's us all but out of the title race now (though it's still possible) and I think you guys are all but safe now too 
No shame in loosing to the elitist Everton team of the last 100 years

Interesting run of games for Luton, Burnley and Forest.And safety now confirmed for you both!

2 points between them and only 1 can stay up.
Luton have Everton, West Ham & Fulham
Burnley have Newcastle, Spurs & Forest
and Forest have Sheff U, Chelsea & Burnley.
Luton probably a very slightly easier run in, Burnleys looking the more difficult. But as you said, Burnley are the form team of the 3, they looked dead and buried a few weeks ago.
Burnley v Forest at Turf Moor last day of the season could be the one to watch!
I hope it goes to the last day. I think Forest would likely stay up if they got their points back but you never know. I have a feeling Burnley will win tomorrow too, but Luton will draw tonight I think
