See here:

Just delete 'brazil_kits' and 'Licensing2' files from data\db\1630\dbc\permanent folder, all names will appear correctly then.

There's only two ways it can go with the French team, they'll either win the damn thing or not a single game!

Think your being a bit harsh on the kits, we've seen much, much worse over the last couple of years.

Think the United kit looks okay to be honest and I like the Liverpool third team kit.


I just don't get the fad for the two slightly different shades of the same colour that is everywhere.

Our third is a damn sight better than that static crap from Chelsea


Okay, just!

So a few teams have already revealed their kits for next season, not keen on some personally. The new Chelsea home kit doesn't appeal:

The little Chelsea lions all over the shirt put me off. As does the cringey posing! Their away kit is worse though:

Don't understand the need for two types of blue on it in stripes, they reverse half way down the shirt too. Bizarre.

Again with two shades of the same colour, but now half and half. Still does not work.

Liverpool arguably have the worst of the bunch so far, their third kit seems to be a "toxic" green:

What do you think of your teams kits for next season and have you found any to challenge these horrible efforts?

I hope Frank De Boer does get the job at Everton, would like to see what he could do there. Clearly wants the job too as him and his brother keep saying!

Elsewhere in Europe, ex-Liverpool player Sami Hyypia has been sacked from his management job at FC Zurich. He's not got the best managerial record!

Martinez

Away to find out what baby number 2's gender is this lunch time (hopefully) during the 20 week scan.

Not hoping for one over the other, both bring their own problems!

Well, lower down the leagues, Nigel Adkins has just been sacked as manager of Sheff Utd.

They just confirmed it on SSN but no one has finished typing an article for me to link too yet!

As we come to the summer months (allegedly) and schools are planning their sports days, football prepares for its own sack race.

Who will be "winning" it next:
Le Voyeur - Arsene Wenger?
Another Man United manager - LVG?
Martinez at Everton?
Flores at Watford?
Pulis at West Brom?
Alex Neil at Norwich?

Who do you think will get the chop first and who will replace them?

Personally, I hope it's my favourite bus driver in Tony Pulis. Just doesn't fit when I think of WBA and I know a few fans think the same. No idea as to replacement!

Shame you won't be visiting us this time in the Championship, it was fun last time.

Though we didn't enjoy the away trip until we joined you in the Prem!

The Championship is gonna be a hell of a division next season, though it usually is pretty good!

True!

Blackpool are a club run by a family of greedy, vile sub-humans. I'm past caring about our results on a heartfelt level, but I have followed the club for too long to not follow events at it. One day I might go back to supporting them properly, when the scum are gone, but until then I watch on with apathy. Poke fun all you like, but it's like kicking someone in their prosthetic limb.

Yes, as I don't have any illusion that the shower of shite that is currently calling itself Blackpool FC are capable of anything but greed and ruin.

PSG has the WORST AI in transfer policy. The garbage they collect over the years is remarkable. Every time I wanted to get rid of someone, there comes PSG like a happy begger


This is so true. When this version first came out, made a City save to basically have a look around and have a bit of fun, trying to get rid of Bony and who should come knocking? PSG Have had it similar in saves since too, bless those silly, rich, Parisians.

Is there any significant phoenix movement? I've heard people are going to see Fleetwood and Fylde?

I think there needs to be general football boycott of Blackpool - home and away fans need to stop going completely,


Not really, there is another team in Blackpool (have existed ages, not part of move against owners) called AFC Blackpool Mechanics or something but they have always been small time and just amateur. Don't think we'll have many fans watching them instead.

As for Fleetwood, I think there is too much rivalry there. We've played them a few times the past couple of seasons so it would be wrong to switch allegiances there. Different town too.

AFC Fylde is probably where most would end up to watch a game, they have a new 6000 seater stadium being built for next season and are currently in the play off final for the conference north so if they win that there'd only be one division between us! Which is crazy to think. Plus, they are a relatively new club with no real history of grievances and Kirkham isn't too far away for most. If I still lived up there and wanted to see some football, it's where I would go.

As for boycotting, there has been the NAPM (not a penny more) movement for quite some time now. Though some people still attended games this season as they had already paid for 2 year season tickets. A lot of those have run out now but there are always those who continue to go and renew every season, blinkered to what's going on at the club and just go selfish reasons. Don't want to go into that too much as it already causes enough arguments and such on our forums.

Another successful Oyston suing of a fan - 30k plus costs and a restraining order.

Our owners are a disgrace.
