That's a cracking shirt, they should licence it to B&H Albion and one team in every league to raise money for children's charities

Not sure where the dolphin would tie in with The Baggies but they could replace it with a song thrush!

I'll stick my neck out so Yozza isn't on his own. I didn't think of the rainbow connection for Brighton - just thought they play in blue and are by the sea

Amnesty International warns Premier League over Newcastle takeover.

The Premier League "risks becoming a patsy" unless it looks at Saudi Arabia's human rights record as a possible takeover of Newcastle United moves nearer, according to Amnesty International.

A Saudi-backed consortium involving Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is reportedly on the verge of buying the Tyneside club for about £300m.

The Premier League must decide whether the group of investors backed by Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund meets its owners' and directors' test.

"I believe there are serious questions to address in determining whether the owners and directors of the company seeking to acquire NUFC are meeting standards that can protect the reputation and image of the game," Amnesty UK director Kate Allen said in a letter to Premier League chief executive Richard Masters.

Like the prem league moneymen ($$$) give a ****.... especially with the cost of covid.


Listened to a great podcast by football writers earlier & they acknowledged the league wouldn't give a damn about the brand against the influx of new blood money to appease the deficit

Don't think so. Flipper was filmed in Brighton (and Lewes IIRC).
