hypochondriac

My personal opinion is that how the club treats local businesses, club legends and fans is just as important as success on the pitch. It is possible to have both as well. I appreciate though that for some this will not be the case and they do not give a toss how the club behaves as long as we win.

Even if it had been, many were annoyed by the club's actions with that local supplier.

Only alpine said that.

Nonsense. You don't know that. You may have spoken to Benali or people who know him well but they are clearly biased and nothing in the public domain supports what you say.

Good for you.

Having spoken to franny and knowing what sort of person he is I have come to the conclusion that the club (cortese) have been unreasonable over this. Can you say the same?

The fact is that as with the last case, the club drew it out for as long as possible and then settled at the last minute. If the Adkins case has not already been settled then I suspect we may see a similar outcome there too.

The club didn't have to specifically state they were going to defend it rigorously.

what is a per say?

I have always been out but under the right circumstances. I have calmed down somewhat over the Adkins affair but still feel it was handled wrongly and would not like to see a repeat of it in the future. Not the decision itself necessarily but how it was handled.

It's an old location.

See above.

Without knowing the circumstances of him leaving or who would be replacing him it would be impossible to say.

That isn't what was asked though.

Life isn't as black and white as that is it.

Good point. Strange that.

This.

Thanks clarky.

Quite rightly the club settled out of court. I have spoken to Franny briefly and more in depth with another ex player who knows Franny well. Have you?

Should never have got that far. Franny treated shamefully.

Never heard of sarcasm?

Because most of the time they deserve it.
