Re: Club vs Country
Club every time.
WW winning the FA Cup is more fanciful if you take the likely quality of the players trying to achieve the task vs. the quality of the players they would face.
But I genuinely don’t think people would know what to do if Ingerlund won the Euros, the narrative arc of:
* overhyping,
* questioning team performance after some ropey game in the group stages,
* then the inevitable choke the minute we face anyone of real quality, followed by a good week or two of self-flagellation
is such a well-trodden path that to deviate from that might be more than the national psyche could take.

Jammy dodgers more like, being the biscuit team.
Re: The Great Ground Vote 2nd Group Stage - G4
Blimey, group of death. All four are wonderful grounds but for.my money Villa Park is the best ground in the UK. Somehow still feels like an elegant old ground despite being modernised.

Villa Park, a great day out, even in the rain. Got stuck in a car park and got home at midnight!
Re: Mikheil Lomtadze confirmed as one of three new directors
Come on, they are board members in name only. From a voting perspective, they have no clout, and no real input.
Re: Club vs Country
I voted for England because it's the least likely to actually happen in anything other than a fantasy universe.
With MLs backing Wycombe will win the FA Cup within 5 years (I've seen the business plan, comes just before "Don't worry it's my money I'm spending").
Re: Mikheil Lomtadze confirmed as one of three new directors
None of this matters. I give it no more than two years before Trump, Putin and Xi’s power games have reduced Europe and most of the rest of the world to an ash pile.
And I’m feeling optimistic today.
Re: Mikheil Lomtadze confirmed as one of three new directors
It’s a business lease arrangement for I think 50 years, with minuscule rent I believe according to one of Couhigs last updates.
so, The Trust are merely a landlord for the stadium, and nothing more. It’s a simple landlord-tenant agreement. Does a renter share their personal life with their landlord? No.
The Trust similarly have no real need or role in understanding or being privy to club strategy.
