Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted November 29, 2019 Subscriber Posted November 29, 2019 Premier League: David Pemsel resigns as chief executive Newly-appointed Premier League chief executive David Pemsel has resigned before starting the job. Pemsel was appointed in October, and was due to start in February, but has stood down following newspaper allegations about his private life. The Premier League said Richard Masters will stay as interim chief executive. Pemsel was the third person to be offered the job following the departure of ex-chief executive Richard Scudamore, who left in November 2018. Susanna Dinnage was originally named as Scudamore's successor but later declined the role to remain at media organisation Discovery. Senior BBC executive Tim Davie also turned down the chance to take up the post. The Premier League said in a statement: "Following media disclosures earlier this week and discussions with David Pemsel, the Premier League has today accepted David's resignation and he will no longer be joining as chief executive." Pemsel's appointment was unanimously approved at a special Premier League shareholders' meeting in October. At the time, Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck, who is also chairman of the Premier League nominations committee, said of Pemsel: "His straightforward style and personal integrity make him an ideal person to lead the business." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50606335 Premier League statement on David Pemsel 29 Nov 2019 Following media disclosures earlier this week and discussions with David Pemsel, the Premier League has today accepted David’s resignation and he will no longer be joining as Chief Executive.

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted December 20, 2019 Subscriber Posted December 20, 2019 Four Premier League matches will take place on the opening weekend of the top-flight's inaugural winter break, with six more the following weekend. All 10 matches have different kick-off times, meaning none of the games will be played at the same time. None of the Saturday games kicks off at 3 pm, with lunchtime and evening starts. The schedule agreed in June 2018 between the Football Association, the Premier League and EFL, sees each teams get a weekend off in February. Under the new system, match week 26 sees eight teams playing on 8-9 February and the other 12 playing from 14-17 February. Burnley, Bournemouth, Manchester City, Sheffield United and Wolves have a 13-day break between their matches - the shortest length of time between games. The longest gap sees Manchester United and Chelsea given a 16-day break between their fixtures. When the plans for the winter break were announced, the Football Association described it as "a significant moment" that "will greatly benefit club and country". Seven clubs - Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham and Wolves - play in Champions League and Europa League ties later in February. First weekend: Saturday 8 February : Everton v Crystal Palace 12:30 GMT, Brighton v Watford 17:30 GMT Sunday 9 February: Sheffield United v Bournemouth 14:00 GMT, Manchester City v West Ham 16:30 GMT Second weekend: Friday 14 February: Wolves v Leicester 20:00 GMT Saturday 15 February: Southampton v Burnley 12:30 GMT, Norwich v Liverpool 17:30 GMT Sunday 16 February: Aston Villa v Tottenham 14:00 GMT, Newcastle v Arsenal 16:30 GMT Monday 17 February: Chelsea v Manchester United 20:00 GMT What does it mean for the sides playing in Europe? - analysis All five English clubs playing in Europe on 18/19/20 February have been given the first week of the split-off - which means they are not being asked to play in Europe after a long break. However, Liverpool and Manchester United have been given the shortest amount of preparation time it was possible to have ahead of away games. Liverpool plays on Saturday evening before going to Atletico Madrid on Tuesday. Manchester United play at Chelsea on Monday before they go to Club Bruges in the Europa League on a Thursday .https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50865324
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted January 21, 2020 Subscriber Posted January 21, 2020 Heated debate? I've heard worse, Carragher talks like he has a fucking budgerigar stuck down his throat, squeaks away talking like one.
LFCMike Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Carragher was asking perfectly reasonable questions but I'm on team Keane if he's backing Solskjaer for another year
DeadLinesman Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Keane has a point to be fair. Follow Carraghers advise and Liverpool would have fucked Klopp off 12 months in.
The Artful Dodger Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 With Klopp there was always improvement though, Solskjaer had a great start and has just plummeted, which makes you think he was just on a bounce The issues are clearly more complex than just one man, but Solskjaer seems very obviously not the right man. Screams Pochettino to me.

The season after, 4th. Solksjaer started in December, finished 6th. He still has a chance of finishing 4th. Where’s the world of difference? We’re not comparing the Klopp of now.

He still has a chance of finishing 4th. Where’s the world of difference? We’re not comparing the Klopp of now. As already pointed out, Liverpool were improving. United aren't. I'm sure you agree judging by a lot of your posts on United. The pedigree of the two also matters greatly. Klopp had won titles in Germany and took Dortmund to a European Cup final. He'd proven that he improves teams at the top level. Solskjaer has managed Molde and took Cardiff down. If we ignore the fact he played for the club 15 years ago or whatever, you're not backing a fella who's managed Molde and Cardiff. Admittedly there's other issues at United that need sorting too
DeadLinesman Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 But I’m still torn as to whether we need to give him a season of his signings. Well, that or Woodward’s. That’s your main problem. Just look at the recent Haaland debacle or the ongoing Fernandes saga. If, and it’s a big IF we get 4th, that’s an improvement. Consistently sacking people isn’t helping the cause either. Would I prefer Poch though? Absolutely.
The Artful Dodger Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Sounds like he may be being readied for the summer, they won't sack Solskjaer this season imo but if they fail to get top 4 he'll go and Poch will come in. If he gets top 4, then it's a big dilemma, reasonably you could say that was all you could expect this season.
Administrator Stan Posted January 24, 2020 Author Administrator Posted January 24, 2020 11 games in a row we'll have on TV now from the Burnley game just gone. Unprecedented for a team like us . Wasn't even this bad when we won the league. Burnley away West Ham home Brentford away (FA Cup) Villa away (EFL Cup) Chelsea home Wolves away Man City home Norwich away Villa home Watford away Brighton home
LFCMike Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 The Derby is Monday night. Bit shit if we're winning the league at Goodison
Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 24, 2020 Subscriber Posted January 24, 2020 Solskjaer's only in the job because he won't stand up to the Glazers and the fans won't fully turn on an ex player despite him being totally out of his depth. The whole thing is mental.
