Not sure Half Term Phil would have had much to do with Peretz signing, he was chilling at Peppa World all last week when all the work would have been done Got Spors all over it, along with a nice big extra wedge from Dragan as a sweetener

Just noticed that Hamburg have also got loan legend Albert Gronbäek, who managed to briefly come into the second worst Premier League team of all time and somehow make it even worse Let's send them Baz, they'll snap him up The Leicester of the Bundesliga The Bundesleicesta, if you will

Not just a fabulous signing, but in a world where any old shite regularly goes for £15m+, having the option in place that has meant getting him for circa £7m is an astonishing bit of business. Fair play to Spors on that one. Larin, Stewart and Bree next please Johannes

Whatever his position is, it is most definitely not left wing. I'll never forget that Forest game at St Mary's, the one with Rusty's famous U formation with no centre forward. The sight of BBD trying to be a winger, slowly galumphing down blind alleys like a great big shitty shire horse while his full back just watched and laughed at him as he needlessly ran it out of play while under no pressure, time and time again. Rancid

Aren’t you banned in France though after the regrettable incident with Glas… sorry, Christophe? That could impact the growth outlook when it’s time to expand the podcast’s fully synergistic pan-European brand footprint And for that reason - I’m out. If you’re looking for backing it’s either Deborah Meaden or you’re paying for it yourself

Will it though? From the reaction on here, it seems the overwhelming majority have already pretty much already forgiven and forgotten and can't wait to hand over their money for their season tickets. This place isn't 100% representative of the whole fanbase, but I think it's a pretty decent barometer. And on here the turnaround in sentiment in the last week or so has been remarkable. The Tonda thread is probably 90% supportive now.

Weird, confused, mealy-mouthed statement. Sounds like it might be the end of Half Term Phil though, so that's something at least.

Interesting. As part of their instruction by Man City, Clifford Chance were the ones who brought in Lord Pannick to act as specialist/ lead defence barrister. So there is a close connection between Clifford Chance and Pannick, which may suggest he's staying involved with Saints case as well, beyond the previous appeal.

That's amazing. 'We need to simplify, and improve consistency. So what better way to do that than by having six different logos.' 🤣

Go on then. Dragan gives you an hour face to face. What are the views and recommendations that you present him with and what actions do you ask him to take?

Not really acting with utmost good faith towards other clubs at all times if you’re hovering a hot air balloon over their training ground is it. The rules, the point of the rules and the principles behind them are so basic and obvious to understand.

Do you know who else didn’t get kicked out? Leeds. And do you know which University Shipman went to? Leeds. Can’t believe some people can’t see the connection here. Gibson’s fingerprints are all over it. Open your eyes and see the conspiracy, Sheeple. Makes you think.

They did actually try that if you remember - the Golden Goal in extra time. Trezeguet won Euro 2000 for France like that.

Jesus christ 🤦‍♂️ Please could you share your views on chemtrails?

They did have proof. They presented it. Which is why we got thrown out. Have you actually been following this at all? Not that really they needed it mind, after that dickhead Phil ‘Half Term’ Parsons marched up to Gibson and admitted it in front of a room full of people before he’d even consulted a lawyer.

No mate, you’ve just decided to keep describing it as insignificant. That’s not the same as it being insignificant. There was a rule, we deliberately broke it multiple times, lied about it, then confessed to it. The direct result of those actions and how we handled it cost us the day at Wembley, the chance of £200m and promotion, and turned the club into a national punchline. That is significant, whether you personally want to accept that or not.

I'm not sure it's trolling or piling-on to dare to suggest that this episode hasn't exactly been the club's finest hour and could have been handled better, to be honest

No but he's really personable, and he just needs a holiday like anyone else, so actually it's all fine and we should all just stop going on about it and leave him alone to enjoy Peppa World and collect his massive pay cheque in peace, the poor lamb

How about taking the path of getting expert legal advice before saying anything, like a competent CEO would?

It's an absolute joke, and i can't believe how many people seem to be OK with it There's a reason clubs treat their fans with contempt - it's because they know that they're so wet and passive that they can do whatever they like and the mugs will just keep handing their money over regardless

When and how is this fabled full, nuts and bolts explanation from 'PP, TE and the club' going to happen? And why should we believe their version of events, given how they have tried to bullshit their way out of it so far? (unsuccessfully, what a surprise)

I agree with Fabrice There, I've said it

Do people seriously not understand what the role of a CEO is? And why he is getting paid probably £1m+ per year to do that role? 'Oh boo hoo he works really hard', 'Oh poor him, it must be such a hard job' - jesus christ He's not some kid taking shit on the customer services helpline, he's the fucking CEO. The whole point of the CEO role is to lead. And when the shit hits the fan, that's when you need to earn your money and are expected to step up, lead from the front and earn those millions. Well our CEO has 1) personally caused the situation to be much worse than it probably needed to be by completely misjudging the situation with Gibson, and 2) totally gone missing at the exact time when he's supposed to be leading I can't believe anyone's alright with that, but judging from the responses, apparently for lots of people that's just fine Righto

When's that going to happen then?
