And any appeal will fall on mutton ears... (One for the cockneys in the audience)

So.... This evening marks a full week (one whole f***ing week) since the appeal ruling, and since the club / owners last uttered anything about the situation... I have just one question m'lud.... WHAT THE ACTUAL F**K IS GOING ON???!!! (Aaaaaand.....Relax)

Depends on whether there was any consent or not, surely? #consentingsheep

That was 21 hours ago.... Alex's view will have changed c.18 times since then...

Just need them both to keep a low profile during the World Cup first...

Cheers for the heads up... My imaginary cricket team were looking for somewhere to stay in the north east next month as it happens...

I assume we're not yet up to the "when it's done" point on @LeG's timeline, given we're still waiting for the club to deal with the fallout....?

Probably not the best turn of phrase in the circumstances....

A competent owner will obviously take all this into account.... ah... erm.... yep, on reflection, you make a good point....

Please promise me, as head of the forum thought police, you've got your "unhinged" and "pony" pelters lined up for those of us that have the temerity to question the FA's decision if they decide to impose a ban? Pretty please?

Maybe 'inside info'... Although if someone has asked any of us to summarise the likely current position in a couple of sentences, we'd have probably come up with something similar, despite not having a clue what's occurring...

Even Gary Barlow's started to take the piss now... P.s. first post on this thread for 11 hours... 'spygate' fatigue kicking in at long last...?

Yep, congrats to Larin, but at the same time, we need you to have a shite world cup please!

Yeah, but don't forget that the instigator of this revolutionary system is "always three steps ahead of everyone else"... (Not necessarily a positive attribute when you're stood at the edge of a cliff though.... #analogytastic )

So, rubbish at set pieces but superb at set ups (allegedly)...?

Just listening to Blair on the Today programme on BBC Radio Four.... Is is just me that thinks he talks a lot of common sense...? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqlpplvzq02o

Fixed it for you

Don't quote me on this but I think there's still 'free camping rights' on parts of Dartmoor? (local to me, so one picks up on snippets about such things here and there)....

Yep, that's my problem... I live in the Devon countryside.... Narrow lanes and campervans tend not to mix very well

Good to put a name to one of the annoying camper van grockles that clog up the Devon roads and car parks every year...

And call her Dignity...?

Yeah... Fair point.... Just as I hit 'send' on that post I reminded myself of the Americans.... The Seychelles and Mauritius were largely riff-raff AND American free....

Yep, definitely heart v head for me.... I started off listening to my head, but now my heart has taken over.... Or is it the other way around....?!

Yep. It's right up there with gyms for me

Sounds like you ought to try one of the more up-market 'all-inclusives' that posh people such as myself and Lady T frequent.... Far too expensive for the aforementioned riff-raff....
