Agents' fees are normally paid by the buying club on permanent transfers at around 10% which would equate to around £28m spent on players. i don't know what happens with loans.

I thought Barcelona were La Liga's Southampton???

No, I just think it'll go pear-shaped all the time.

Indded he is and he always was. He didn't need to spend a couple of million to prove it, but it strengthens his case.

You see, that's the clever part. Make sure there is some verisimilitude and you can't go wrong. "For the reasons given I am satisfied at least on the balance of probabilities that Mr Mitchell did speak the words alleged or something so close to them as to amount to the same including the politically toxic word 'pleb'." which is all that is needed in these cases. This should never have got this far but nobody comes out of it with a clean record. Someone leaked this alleged exchange and fabricated elements of the story, such as members of the public being present and being 'visibly shocked'.

Not at the moment he isn't.

I don't like bouncers. They're not cricket. The aim of the game is to hit the wicket, not the batsman.

True, it caused problems for Man Utd too if I recall.

Toby seemed to actually run away from the incident. Once he'd seen Forster he could have kept going as cover.

Housebreaking during the daytime, I thought.

Of course - good point that I had overlooked.

Yes, that's what I meant. It was 'hit and hope' all night.

I'm sure everybody noticed. Does anyone know why?

I can't disagree with any of that. It was a misjudgment made in a fraction of a second. At least it wasn't an error of ego.

At home to Chelsea?

Toby seemed to underestimate it, but surely he would have been warned before the game?

I can't disagree with any of that. It was a misjudgment made in a fraction of a second. At least it wasn't an error of ego.

Indeed he did. It happened ight beneath me and you could see him hitting the ground in frustration. Good luck to him, wherever he goes.

Close enough. He'll be back in the team soon enough

According to the Mail, last night was the first time that we have ever started with a team of full internationals in our entire history.

Does that mean 2-1?

A lack of discipline: that is all.

Final ball not good enough. It shows how far we've come when we're unhappy with an away draw at Villa.

Very touching, Phil, almost reduced me to tears At least he now has a new club to support.
