Weston Super Saint

A smarter man than me may put money on the result of our "internal investigation" producing a copy of his fixed term contract which expired at the end of the regular season meaning he wasn't employed during the playoffs. Who knows, stranger things have happened

Think their manifesto has the Romans running 75% of the country. Still, should be able to get a decent tiramisu.

Really? Wasn't he the most gifted orator ever to walk the planet when he was rinsing Boris during PM questions? What happened to the talented, confident, ex legal professional who could destroy the opposition with just his words?

Wankers! They've been spying on my wardrobe. Is there no end to their shenanigans?

Not sure anyone would be delighted if they opened the door and he was there mumbling and muttering in his monotone voice.

Nobody voted for Liz Truss but we still had to put up with her.

Not sure that that isn't an improvement on the "old" H&W....

Pretty sure they can't intervene as the EFL is self governing. The FA would need to implement spying rules on all leagues first.

Not if they've got less than two years service - which if the LinkedIn profile is to be believed then they don't. No protection from unfair dismissal (at the moment) with less than two years service. Could get rid of them tomorrow, pay a month's notice and move on...

There may be everything in it, we may be banged to rights. Still no point coming out and saying that though until you've examined every possible loophole! Do you see Man City's lawyers coming clean despite the evidence everyone can see?

He could just say he's not going to respond. Who is going to question his mad stare? They'd need to be brave!

Even then we are unlikely to issue a response to them until the last minute. However, if the rules state 14 days, not sure their pushing for an immediate response will receive one. In short, lots of questions with very few answers right now. We haven't issued a denial (or confirmation) as yet, because we haven't reached a point where we formally have to respond. This isn't politics where you need to get out in front of something and shout louder than everyone else. At the moment the rules regarding the timescale work in our favour, why would we want to change that?!

Haven't we got 14 days to respond?

So a fine then! If clubs can overspend by millions and receive a fine, I can't see anything other than that for a spreadsheet geek watching a training session!

It's a long thread and I haven't read it all, but didn't the EFL set a precedent when they fined Leeds £200k in 2019?
