    After today's news at the EFL protest.
    It's obvious #TeamWIOTOS was built on a Belgian waffle.
    In our need of a new trustworthy source,
    #TeamWRCROI is born from the ashes
    When Richard Cawley Reports On It

    Am I missing something? What news?
  • Just caught up with it all on Twitter! I know now!

    I think Muir was at The Valley to propose a new Good Guys store to be built in the Jimmy Seed Stand. Good ole Rolly trying to make an extra pound.

    I reckon the Aussies will be making their move within the next 12-24 months.

    I heard within the next 5 years
    First rule of the Aussie bid




    There is no Aussie bid

    Oh but there is. Because it has been submitted to the EFL for the ODT. And according to @Addickted , it passed. And the EFL are apparently a bit pissed off that de Turck goes round suggesting otherwise.


    Wooooosh



    Have you ever watched fightclub


    You need to chill a bit it’s called banter
    Surely that'd be

    First rule of the Aussi bid


    You don't talk about the Aussie bid.

    Which actually is what I wish had been the case since day 1


    In 2 weeks time we'll wake to find out that Andrew Muir was actually a fantasy alter ego of @JamesSeed and the consortium and bid was a consequence of his writers block and sleep deprivation.
    Thanks for ruining the movie mate
    Have you seen The usual suspects.....?
  • Sorry. I don’t get it.
  • that's what the fawaz guy tweeted with pretty much the same pic.
  • I think the rumour about not selling due to NDA is actually Roland saying the oz takeover won't happen due to breaking NDA with the joint statement the club put out months ago, which he probably forgot about and/or only saw when he went on to post the other statement about the EFL ;)

    Ooooh.....you tease!
  • I did spot @AFKABartram deep in conversation with @JamesSeed at the demo yesterday, no doubt sharing their collective inside info, but they changed the subject when I went over.

    #hushhush
  • Think this thread will still be running this time next year.
  • Even The Daggers sale has been done & dusted before us now...Tim Howard (ex Man U keeper) has put a consortium together...looking rather good for them now,can see us playing them again in the not to distant future if we still have Douchtwat in charge & god forbid Bowyer walks/gets snapped up by next season...

    Cmon Roly...Sell the club & do fuck off...!!
  • The first thing the EFL could do would be to make it a law that you can only change a manager in the close season

  • Then possibly further down the line, the players?
  • The first thing the EFL could do would be to make it a law that you can only change a manager in the close season

    Why would they do that.

    Football clubs are a business, if a manager at your company is underperforming you are within your rights to sack him.
    That's not really true though, is it? Companies in the real world have set procedures They must follow, they can't just fire people willy nilly.

    Also the hire and fire model works at Watford. So is it actually bad?

    Have you never come across a situation where an under-performing senior manager is eased out of his or her role, outside the terms of their employment, by means of a compromise agreement and a fat cheque?

    No, but the accounts manager at the law firm I worked at did totally lose her shit one day and trashed the entire office, she was fired and it still went to an employment tribunal for months, despite the event being so bad the police came and arrested her. Also what you described is not what paulie said, is it?
  • Imagine not being able to get rid of Karl Fraeye mid season, stupid idea that one

    As funny as that is, he wouldn't have been appointed. We would have had Guy for the remainder of that season.

    Just bumping. A thread of this magnitude can’t be allowed to languish on page 2.

    I was responding to you, by describing precisely how an under-performing manager could be "sacked".
