Exactly. Although that doesn't mean Cortese shouldn't run the club in the most commercially sensible way. Not sure what this has to do with Illingsworth! This thread is mental.

I think this is one of the least consequential things that ever happens at a football club!

That's a point I made the other day. Wotton has a role in the squad. I would still laugh if this was true though and it would also confirm that we definitely have a another CM coming in.

I don't see how anyone could possibly argue with that (that the Saints sentences look ridiculous compared to this case - not that they were necessarily too harsh per se).

Call the EU!

Yes!! There it is, finally! :vuvu:

Is that what's happened?

I was thinking earlier that it wouldn't surprise me if we got another laon from Italy a la Waigo fairly late in the day. Maybe this is it.

Not sure how you work that out.

What really amazes me is that we've got to page 15 and I don't think he's pulled that stunt yet!

Probably the best post on the thread! The fact that this has got to "x and counting" pages so quickly just shows that people enjoy a gaggle about this sort of stuff.

I'm sure I speak for all of us in applauding your high principles. They shine through, a rare beacon of virtue, in all your posts. What a gent.

Exactly. There really are some funny little people on here.

Yep.

No. Just no. I said "in my opinion". I don't speak for anyone else or pretend to. That doesn't preclude me from having an opinion on what the general feeling actually might be. I think it is what I said it is. I might be wrong. I think it's best if you try to avoid arguing around semantics as you're not really clever enough. LMAO - really? That simple?

It's like sending a complaint about Sprite to Walkers crisps. And on the more general point - Cortese has done a great job and I'm pretty sure Liebherr is well aware of that.

I don't think it is. Most Saints fans will not have strong feelings about any of those things IMO. Obviously some do, but that's life. You can't please everyone all the time.

You can, and I am inclined to agree today.

But it's nothing to do with Mali. It is, as you agree, just silly.

Can I suggest that sending an email about SFC to Mali, a company that has no commercial or structural links with SFC, is perhaps a little bit silly? Just a thought.

By the way, does anyone know the reason for the alleged ban yet? Perhaps those that know Illingsworth could list all the reasons why the club might want to ban him. I don't mean putting vague, transcendent things like "they hate free speech", I mean listing the actual things that Illingsworth has done that might make the club feel like banning him. Ta.

Oh my goodness.

Yeah, that is certainly a key part of determing what the actual tax liability to HMRC is but there is more to the appeal than that; I doubt the judge will even attempt to answer the question; "what is the overall tax liability owed to HMRC". The judge will be primarily interested in the question as to whether the claim was handled properly; if the exact amount of the debt owed to HMRC is a material factor in determining whether the CVA has been validly passed then there will need to be a much longer hearing than a day/day and a half.

They are certainly liable to be ridiculed.
