  • Can anyone recommend a good pot noodle?

    Oxymoron

  • Can anyone recommend a good pot noodle?

    I had the Chilli Beef one the other day. Not to be recommended though. It blows your brains out.

    Stick with Chicken & Mushroom.

    Think you are right - but who really knows what's going on in the background...? Still cannot believe RD won't do a deal to stop losing £500k - £750k a month that might be ongoing until June. If he keeps the club until the summer he might as well offer a £2m discount now and save money! My personal belief is that he wants a deal on the potential income from previous player sales. This is based on what he is supposed to have done at Standard Liege. I mean if there are sell-on/appearance money clauses for Konza, Pope, Lookman, Gudmunsson and (especially) Gomez then there could potentially be millions 'at stake'. On Transfermarket Gomez is currently valued at £36m! Maybe the Aussies are offering a better deal on that future income.

    That is presuming that Katrien remembered to ask for such clauses to be included....
  • There won’t be any sell on fees

    Agree she was naive and inexperienced, but I would think the contracts sales documents would have been drawn up by specialist lawyers and would have clauses, almost by default. I know we all love to hate Meire but find it hard to believe that Gomez at minimum didn't have a sell-on clauses and probably an appearance/England call-up clause...!

    Pay for lawyers to do it??? They kept costs to a minimum don't ya know when Pinnochio was around and just copied and pasted from previous contracts! Who knows what is on those contracts, or what the Liar told Roland was in them...

    And wash it down with a can of Red Bull.
  • See you all next imminent sale rumour in the summer transfer window.

    It was a misprint all along.

    Assuming the Aussies haven’t pulled out, there must be talks planned for this week, possibly today?
    Perhaps this is the calm before the storm?
    Perhaps nothing is happening?
    Oh God!

    Before engaging in such speculation feller, you should drop a DM to @JamesSeed as he seems to have a direct line to the Ozzie’s and would likely be the first to know...
    You’re welcome :smile:
