    Yes, extending the contract length and thus depreciating your "assets" over the length of these deals. In the end, it doesn't matter: It's bad for football but business wise, everybody profits. What I found funny is that yesterday, they started Ziyech, whom they wanted to ship to PSG just a few days earlier and Madueke (1 goal for PSV this year) was the first one off the bench.

    As I read the articles Chelsea risks a lots with this movement. They are 12 points behind from UCL places and they should pay the wages for those long term contracts. This could increase €7-8M/player/year the wage costs and from this summer clubs could spend only 90% of their incomes to wages/agent's fees. This limit will decrease to 80 and to 70 in the next 3 years. So if Chelsea will lose the UCL money but they should pay the star wages for the next years they won't pass the financial fair play criteries and all the business will collapse.

    This isnt new… «all» Clubs Are doing this, and also, all the big Clubs have a lot of promising players around the World, see just on Man City how the send their players around the world in their owners Club (like NY City, some Club in Australia and so on…) , its not just the players, coaches as well i think i have heared some where…

    The new thing is the mass of long term contracts. If you sign a player for 5-8 years the costs of €50M will be a small part of your budget every year. If you make this 3-4 times in a year you can get 3-4 superstars for €50M for a year in total.

    There is a very interesting article in the "The Athletic" how Chelsea's €90M spending is possible.

    Long story short: you can shorten your expenses to sell players from your academy and Chelsea has a lot of promising players (many them in loan). We are talking about 50-60 players around the world. The other leg of the trick is to divide the transfer costs to years. Chelsea has made a lot of long term contracts which means a 6 year-€60 M contract costs only €10M/year in books. Third and final leg is the special covid rules to allow you to make -€90 M loss/year.

    So it seems everything is legal, but UEFA will cut dividing contract costs up to 5 years in  the future.

  5. Applying for the local licence is now possible. It could last 6 months till the gain. The main question is Unibet is a betting company with small poker revenue or a poker company with a small betting revenue. If the first, then they will get the licence but maybe they will close the poker section. If second is true then poker will be available without licencing troubles but betting will be terminated. Ther es no third option gaining licence for betting and poker (casino) too. Interesting, we will see what will happen.

  6. I know it's a feature, not a bug, but last night regstration ended 5 minutes before tournament started in the €0.40 Spuermoon flip when we were 2 players short. I know this could prevent people to cheat but could you review it and consider adding a standard 1 minute before tournament starts closure? Thanks.

  7. @WuDu: I demand answer!

    "FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — A leading soccer referee in Germany was awarded 48,500 euros ($52,800) in compensation on Wednesday after a court found he was discriminated against when he was no longer considered for games because of his age.

    The court in Frankfurt found the 49-year-old Manuel Gräfe, who officiated 289 Bundesliga games from 2004 through 2021, had been disadvantaged by the German soccer federation’s practice of not considering referees over the age of 47."

    Though now that I think of it if you had a matchbet on Korda, that would be correctly settled as lost since they had already played at least  one full set ,eventhough it would still have been possible to Korda to win the match without the retirement. So, I'm actually not sure about the previous post anymore. And this is what I meant with these rules be so damn confusing 😩

    FunckyFish's argument is perfect. Handycap is settling if the other outcome couldn't become true before the retirement. So this is a void.
