Football Guides

Questions a match throws up that nobody stops to answer. Each guide takes one and works through it properly, rather than giving the version that fits in a caption. Written and checked in-house, and updated when the rules move.

The laws of the game

The decisions that start arguments, and why they were given. Most come down to a rule that changed at some point and never got explained.

Transfers and contracts

What the reported fee leaves out. Almost every transfer story turns on a clause, a deadline or a payment structure nobody spells out.

Football money

Why a club with a wealthy owner says it cannot afford a striker, and why the answer is usually accounting rather than cash.
