Re: Arsenal 2014/2015
Alternatively if Manchester City win the Champions League, then 5th place in the Premier League this season will enter the competition (unless Liverpool also win the Europa League)

Re: West Ham stadium deal
My understanding is that it was a competitive tendering process, and the alternative would have been a white elephant. West Ham are only allowed an initial quota of 25 competitive games per event year. For competitive matches, the rent is £100,000 per game (the same figure for each additional compet...

Re: Foxtel signs football deal with beIN Sports!!!
ps, any forumite know if this is a reaction by Foxy TV losing the EPL to Octopus? Well, they were spending around $25m (unsure if per season or over 3 years, so maybe $8m per season?) on the EPL rights previously, so they are probably subsidising the cost of your beIN subscription and making it ava...

More football which is easily accessible is never a bad thing. I believe we will now only have 2 subscription services for all football access. 1. Optus for EPL (final details including pricing yet to be announced) 2. Fox Sports for A-League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1, Champions League/E...

Re: Time for the SAASL to get tough on Clubs?
I totally agree that clubs with two teams in separate single team leagues should be TOLD by the league that they need to play in Div 4 as they can field two teams Whilst this is fine in theory, you have the following situation. A club with 4 teams has an A/B/C team in Division 1/5 or 2/6, and their...

Re: Extra time
I doubt that "data" would ever be a neat 50/50 in any case. Bit like tossing a coin 100 times - possible, but unlikely you'd get a 50/50 outcome. That is where significance levels come in If you assume an unbiased coin (like we would assume no bias in a penalty shootout), the probability ...

Re: Extra time
There's no problem with penalty shootouts as a mechanism for determining a tie. The problem is that it is so heavily weighted toward the team that wins the toss and goes first.
