I’ve heard that there is a disagreement over the luncheon vouchers and green shield stamps …..

Strange though there have been no connections between us and them for two weeks now

He won’t raise taxes where he said he wouldn’t - income tax, vat, NI they didn’t actually commit to not raising any others. most sane objective people knew that they would have to increase taxes somewhere

Misinterpreting again - sorry You’re right - he doesn’t identify them. I’m sure he could refuse to proceed on any particular player if he had large misgivings. fwiw, most on here were quite happy with daka and Bertrand seemed a no brainier for £4m per season for two years. The damage done to him by covid could not have been foreseen.

Good point this hasnt just happened must have been an approach from somewhere then who wouldn’t meet our price - spurs ???

Getting deals done more quickly could have delivered a point at Fulham and possibly another one against villa. I know that the system is more complex than that and we’ve missed out on targets but there are questions about their viability and our naivety in pursuing them

The one I quoted you on replied to a post which didn’t do that - hence confusion on that particular point. See below

I hope they don’t stumble across our target ……

so that’s 21+6 and 10% sell on or 20+6 from two sources we offered 20+3+10% sell on according to one of those assume we’ll settle on something in the add ons to get it done (Chelsea just bought their keeper for €20m and loaned him back to them so they’ve taken some money in this week)

By which point we’ve made it a 35 game season for us.

Not one where we’ll get any points …….

So it’s his fault then it wasn’t a secret within the industry that a certain HOR had sticky fingers and wasn’t for for purpose on that basis alone.

This doesn’t address actual ground invasion of Russian territory or heavy targeting of Russian assets inside the country. Whilst the latter would be difficult to justify use of a TNW unless it was really large, the former is much easier to frame as such (irrespective of the small area entered). I don’t feel that the Russians arguing that believing that their territorial or sovereign integrity is under threat justifies use of a TNW is unreasonable. of course the actual level of belief is questionable

Already several correct answers but the genie is out of the bottle and it’s not a single silver bullet responsible I have direct experience of this with some of my kids - Fortunately not chronic (at this stage) and addressing it is important. However, I don’t believe that social media has any responsibility in these cases.

Who made that decision ?

Madders spent his loan in Scotland he will get more out of the games against Celtic and rangers than he will most of the championship opponents. Possible that no one in the championship would take him in and commit to game time.

because the alternative would be to say it’s a board decision and no one is going to say that are they the point being that none of us know for sure

Probably a choice between league 1 and SPL SPL much better

I’m thinking he was being sarcastic………. He’d better have been!

Maybe no one wanted him or would commit to playing time ? he’ll get decent tests up there

I think some weapons have been restricted such as long range missiles however, if you sell weapons to ukraine then surely they’re able to do what they like with them? you can ask them nicely not to be careless re civilians/infrastructure but apart from that it’s their call?? if they do go strongly into Russian territory and Russia responds with larger attacks against Ukrainian targets in the west of the country then maybe that’s the cost - but it’s Ukraine’s decision. What must be pointed out to them is that if they raise the stakes of the war away from just being mainly regionalised in the east by these attacks on and into Russia, then they cannot expect NATO countries to assist more than they already are doing by supplying weapons. it’s a difficult situation and we don’t want to end up in a place where Russia genuinely feels that its sovereignty is threatened. whilst that is clearly a hypocritical stance, we have to avoid tactical nuclear weapons being deployed.

‘Needs must’ in our position If we’re relegated then I’d expect any ambitions player to want to leave if they’ve proved themselves at PL level if the club make a decent profit on them then we can’t really complain. if he’s a sig part of us staying up then even more reason not to be bothered - money in the bank from all angles. Just have to spend it wisely on ageing utility forwards !

Hope not

To be fair to him, he could do a job for a top six championship club. I’d like him to get a season out on loan to make sure that we give him every chance to develop late as KDH did.

don’t trust him to get whatever he’s got in his hands across the line
