Too be fair, after Henderson wasn't sent off for pawing the ball away from Haaland outside the box, you can understand why they think the rules don't apply to them.
The flip side to that argument is that Textor will find it harder to sell the shares due to an inflated value because of a one off cup win. He couldn't get a buyer at pre Cup win value. Delicious irony. Love it.
I suppose what I was getting at was whether we might be able announce a couple of deadline day transfers this afternoon ahead of the PSR strapped clubs joining the game next week and in to July. If rumours are to be believed :ROFLMAO: we seem to have firm interest, offers on the table for more...
Not who we might sign, but the question of timing. As a club I'm curious to know if we are looking at all the rumoured signings with a view to completing our business today? As a cash rich( I think) club with no PSR issues are we trying to steal a march (no Solly jokes please) on most of the...

It isn't though. 1st March was the deadline, the finish line, the date everything had to be done by. It wasn't the start date to put ducks in a row, the ducks needed to be packed and ready to go.
Obviously I'd like Albion to play in Europe at the expense of Palace ignoring the rules, but if UEFA find some wriggle room and wave it through, nothing will take away the enjoyment of watching them and their fans squirm. I also imagine Marianakis may feel the need to appeal such a judgement as...
