  1. And guess who's paying for his lawyers?
  2. They lost at Portsmouth 1-0 and won at home 1-0 so they would lose 3 points and no goal difference.
  3. Grandad's definition is within about an hour's drive.
  4. This one will be interesting. Why pay for him if you might get him for nothing?
  5. And if all the players agreed to defer their payments until a buyer is found? I also presume that there is a big pile of PAYE and NI payments that is stacking up during all this time.
  6. It's not just her interpretation, it is the whole Home Office. I don't agree that Sunday is included in the time for an appeal. 'Expires Sunday' means just that to me. On Sunday it will have expired.
  7. I think not. That's why they appealed at the last hour, or so they thought.
  8. If West Ham do end up in the playoffs, will they extend the loan of Henderson?
  9. But the law is imprecise. The decision was not hers alone, there was a whole bank of lwayers behind it.
  10. We're not talking about 2 days here, we're talking about 3 months. Everybody agrees it is ambiguous, something which can always be a problem when someone is draughting laws in what is not their natural language. And by the way, '2 days from today' means Sunday to me.
  11. That's where the problem lies.
  12. That's what all the fuss is about. He and his lawyers think that they did, our government and its lawyers say that they didn't. They were trying to be clever and delay everything to the last possible minute. Now they are appealing because their appeal has been deemed as out of time. There is a technical legal argument about the exact day which independents agree is possibly ambiguous. The fact is that three months give or take a day is plenty of time. He's had his chance, now kick him out. Preferably at 30,000 feet if he doen't want to pay the landing fees.
  13. Not a cock-up. He has had three months to appeal and his was lodged one hour before what he thought was the deadline. That is taking the p1ss. Our government have their view of the deadline. Some judges in Strasbourg have a different one. Our government is under our democratic control. Kick him out.
  14. Nor risk, no gain. Or loss.
  15. Frank's, he's not British, it's not our job to keep and protect him.
  16. Who's playing there? Leicester City have been using the King Power (formerly Walkers') stadium for the last ten years.
  17. We can, we just have to ignore the ECHR.
  18. If she really loved you she'd understand.
  19. Interesting reading. Nice to see that somebody is looking ahead.
  20. This is all a bit previous. There is no option for 'next season'. The gods of footie don't like too much hubris.
  21. I've been speaking to a couple of their followers recently. They feel that they are being punished twice. Not only do they have a points deduction but also they have had to get rid of their best players.
  22. Maybe he just said that he liked karate and it got mistranslated?
  23. It shows how far we have come that we could feel a bit disappointed about not winning the Championship.
  24. I can talk a lot of drivel myself at times.
