And it occurs to me that agents fees can’t be amortised so if the agent wanted £3 to get the deal done and that’s 2m more than we’re prepared to pay - we’d lose 10m on our transfer budget this season to get the player. I suppose we could load the fee to juve if they’re prepared to pay all the agents fee but then they lose 2m from their income in this example.

You recognise this many people don’t subscribe to this viewpoint until the ICJ delivers its verdict, we don’t actually know if the Israeli defence of acting within international law has been denied. (And the Israelis will argue that the court is biased if it is.). What we don’t know is how much military evidence Israel Is able to provide without compromising itself. by the way - how much funding do we give the Israeli govt ???

Does anyone ever ask why Hamas fighters are staying in (and sometimes fighting from) UNWRA schools ? (And how many of the 30 killed - if we accept that number - are Hamas fighters)? It was inevitable from the 8 October that Israel would not care much for taking the maximum number of civilian casualties allowed under international law to take out a single Hamas fighter. It seems likely that they will argue that secondary explosions from Hamas weaponry on site (which has often been the cause of many additional civilian deaths) is not their responsibility. I think this argument will form the crux of their defence at the ICJ. I think that argument will be dismissed.

Bet that’s peed off juve aswell (unless they’re on a kick back - they have form )

That reveals the politics of UK FCP more than it does anything else - can we post anything we like on here without any kind of check on its veracity?? No one is a war criminal as yet as no warrants have even been issued - against Israelis or Palestinians. There has been a request to the court by ICJ prosecutors asking that warrants be issued. At this time I’ve no idea how long that case will take to be heard. The submission by the U.K. has been withdrawn. There are submissions from other countries being considered in addition to the legalities of the requests. So if sinwar rocked up at Gatwick then he’d be allowed to go about his business (unless there is an existing warrant for him relating to Hamas being a prescribed terror org).

He doesn’t need any comp what we ended up paying him over nearly five years means that the Rodgers family doesn’t really need to work for several generations ….

You’ve heard it’s off ??

Plan is to make the PL commission take pity on us and only apply a three point deduction

Tbf, I can think of situations where I would have been fairly relaxed about the person being booted in the head …… If this guy had stabbed someone then I would also be less judgemental. There is always context.

I think you are charged and then tried before being possibly jailed if the jury agree you’re guilty and the judge believes a prison sentence is applicable ! btw, I’m not vexed with pepper spray if an officer believes it’s necessary to protect themselves and the public. they have to justify that to their superiors afterwards.

Let’s not forget that when we sold chilwell, it was thought in the academy that Thomas would be a more than capable replacement. Chilwell had a tough year when he first came into the mix but he really went for it in the summer and made himself an absolute animal re his fitness. That helps hide a lot of issues. Thomas never kicked on. My view is that fitness is something that all players can improve and the desire comes from within.

I It’s apparently after the kicking incident (so must be after the violence towards his colleagues) I can’t see how it matters - no officer should, be doing what he did when a suspect is prone on the ground with his hands by his side That’s his job - he’s trained to deal with situations like this (even moreso in his case as an armed officer).

There’s a video on sky where they claim this officer is shown pepper spraying another noisy (maybe construed as aggressive) person after the kicking incident. He has colleagues around him who don’t resort to the pepper spray. Not sure this guy seem to be the type who should be carrying a gun ?

So did the wpc break her own nose or was that a ‘story’ - I wonder if the guy currently in hospital will be charged when he’s well enough

Awful at wolves ?

Thinking in more detail, the fact that this bloke is a firearms officer and clearly extremely poor at making quick decisions under pressure - the guy on the floor (who is likely a nasty piece of work) is lucky he wasn't shot!

I understand the response - for all we know the pc with the broken nose could be a v close colleague to the officer. But these guys are paid to control their emotions. There are standards that they have to meet and this bloke fell far below them by choosing to strike the head of a prone suspect with his boot. - twice. We can wonder if the officer will claim that he did not know if the suspects had any weapons and chose his actions to avoid any risk whatsoever - but what about his taser ? this fella’s career on front line policing is v likely over. If he’s charged with assault then he’s surely out of the force completely?

Cue reports rudders negotiated a clause where we have to pay a percentage of the loss on sale 😄

Rare to see sell on clauses on 50m+ fees infact I don’t recall ever seeing one …

Mate - we have had threads at 100 pages with no comments from reliable journos like Percy. The club aren’t bothered about what we think. Someone said he had sources outside the club - of course he does but imo, he wouldn’t go public on anything without a nod from his sources within. There is a reason why he’s considered no 1 for info by the fanbase. That many won’t consider any info reliable until Percy comments on it.

No need though there was no particular clamour from the fanbase for any news on soule the club has pretty much always done transfer stuff with no comments until deals are effectively done

She deserves an apology from adidas they should never have involved her in this campaign

Too many worrying about the cost without appreciating the nuances of salary/fee adjustments to compensate

I’ve got winks vibes reading the negativity on here.
