Swain wins best Youth Coach award. Shame he didn't send any of the names mentioned up to Villa.

I watched a documentary the other day about France’s 2010 World Cup campaign. I hadn’t realised, until Agbonlahor mentions it, that the fitness coach who was filmed nearly having a fight with Evra went on to work for Villa, twice.

That Dragon's Den thing was so random. I thought poor Lamare's brain was going to explode in the middle of the second pitch.

We have received a €10k fine for a discriminatory banner during the Europa final. Also handed a suspended one-match ban on selling tickets to away fans.

According to The Athletic, the issue was a banner that ‘referenced the traveller community’, which UEFA have classed as ‘Racist and/or discriminatory behaviour’.

Anyone know what was actually on it so we know which twats to blame if we do get the away ban?

I do find it very strange, in particular that it was about Travellers.
