Seems to be some suggestion that Derby's comms team accidentally put out a post on social media for a short time confirming the takeover. It was hastily taken down but not before several thousand people had seen it.
They must have been very confident the deal was going through to have had all that stuff ready to go.
Oly eliminated from the Champions League in the qualifying round. Leading 1-0 with 20 minutes to go, conceded the equaliser on 70, had a man sent off on 77, conceded the winning goal on 95.
The big man will not be happy.
Glad it wasn't last season
Jota Silva was subbed after 15 minutes. I presume he was injured.
Leicester advertised for sale.
Physical assets valued at 200m...which must mean they don't own all of seagrave and the ground.
Apparently includes the women's team and their Belgian club OH Leuven as well, they're selling the whole football enterprise.
You'd think they ought to have enough to get promoted this season anyway but the friction involved in being in the midst of a sale can't help if they aren't challenging.
Chicago's favourite Alex Mowatt on the verge of a move to Derby, according to John Percy.
Oh how the mighty have fallen. I am still trying to get over Gueddy buggering off to Crystal Palace back in the day. That traitor. EM is doing his revenge work for that very reason. Never forget....
Chicago: Bitter.
Burnley have announced termination of the contract with their shirt sponsor.
Nothing massively unusual about that, apart from the fact they only signed a deal with them last month and have since shifted a load of replica gear to supporters with this company's logo on the front.
They've dumped a dodgy trading company so this year they really are just Vertu signalling.
I've just noticed OIFBC are playing our jolly good friends from up the A46 tomorrow.
I don't know why, but that just amuses me somehow.
Notts away and Burton at home are their grand welcome to League One.
Yeah. Bit of a disappointment for Notts having to host a bunch of tinpots on their return to the third tier, but what can you do, eh.
Nuno Espirito Santo saying in a press conference today on the eve of West Ham's new season that: "We don't have too much time. We need more players."
Sounds familiar...
I shouldn't be looking forward to Wolves v Blackburn as much as I apparently am.
