A mature and patient batting display from England today - if in fact they were 10 years old.
Quite a ridiculous Test.

I think the most absurd thing about the Palace demotion is that being so pedantic and hardline on this case doesn't actually touch the multiple problems that multi-club ownership actually throws up.
As someone in Uefa put to me, it's being strong on the negligible aspects.

Great to see it’s being acknowledged that Crystal Palace Football Club was formed in 1905. Now sack off that 1861 marketing shite & hopefully the HF stop that dreary chant. #cpfc

🦅 Column on Crystal Palace's European demotion. Football, for so many, is meant to be a release – a break from the pressures of working life and personal struggle. But increasingly, it feels like the sport is being governed by the same systems that exhaust us elsewhere. #CPFC
'UEFA should correct the absurd injustice of Crystal Palace’s Europa League ban'
Crystal Palace's Europa League ban exposes UEFA's flawed multi-club ownership rules and highlights the growing dominance of politics over merit.

After the the French football financial watchdog (DNCG) confirmed the relegation of Olympique Lyonnais to Ligue 2, we have taken a look at what's gone wrong at this storied club, which was a Champions League semi-finalist as recently as 2020 #TeamOL

Seems misleading to come to that conclusion from what UEFA said re: #CPFC - it appears to be more of a situation where they are seeking to avoid making a ruling if they don't need to
Frustratingly, there are a load of moving parts to this whole situation
