Unbelievable Jeff

**** off. Seriously? I would certainly have Henderson and Delph over him, they are far better footballers, and Herrera is also much better. That is mental.

Why would we make it permanent now? Why not spend the money in the Summer as part of a different FFP year? Do we know how close we are to our FFP limit?

Haha, well thank you Pap!

It depends what you call slagging? Yeah, he's fine, and did a good job for us. Don't think he'll be massively missed though, as he's not a starter.

I'm feeling that more and more.

A) I don't have a choice if I want to work in the job I do. B) I pay thousands to pay for a service and a documented level of service that I don't receive (they have compensation schemes). If you spent thousands and went to a BUPA hospital and got a **** service, what would you do? If you went to Curry's and bought a tv that didn't work would you take it back to Curry's, or would you not expect to be able to?

Great news!

What did he say?

I don't expect consequential damages, just compensation for the bad service I receive.

I don't expect compensation for consequential damages I sustain (don't think I've ever said that) but I do for the **** poor service I receive. I think that's fair enough.

They can refuse to play him for the rest of the season, which is a lot more damaging to him than you'd think.

The culture that you're talking about is the problem with getting compensation from private individuals or their insurance companies based on negligence, or poor health and safety. It's generally based on injuries, which is something completely different. I don't think you understand paying for an advertised service, but that's fine. Your road analogy doesn't make any sense as it's not the same thing (VAT on fuel, depreciation etc aren't paid to a private company to pay for the upkeep of roads so got no idea what you're point is with that). I have put the analogies in parentheses. You live in a 4 bed house (job) and buy gas, electricity and water from the same company (trains). The company charge much more than the gas and electricity is worth, but you cannot switch company as it is the only company that can supply your house. They are fully capable of supplying you with all 3 on a day to day basis, but by underinvestment the infrastructure has become damaged and unreliable. Due to this, you regularly get power, gas and water outtages. The issue is, you never know when this is going to be, or for how long. It is very difficult to plan around. Your only choice is to move down the road to a 2 bedroom house which has all working services, but which is not big enough for your family, and will result in one of your children having to sleep in the lounge (money). Would you just say, "That's how it is, just have to live with it", or would you complain to the energy company and expect them to improve their service/compensate you for it? Anyone else want to help me to explain it to Ringwood, or is it me getting it wrong??

That is what we'd need to do, that's for sure.

But we're only selling him if he's not signing a new contract. Any arguments beyond this season therefore are null and void.

This.

If both Koeman and Pochettino don't think he's good enough for a starting spot, then I think they're more likely to be correct about a player than a number of fans who think he's underrated.

Schneiderlin will be going in the Summer with Clasie in to replace him. Don't see that this makes any difference, especially when Cork won't be here next Summer (he's not signing a new contract).

As you say it's freezing, and I need it it to keep me going today.

Dunno. Mate told me about Swansea interest a few days ago though.

Not really a rival club this season, and we'll have played them twice, so more chance to take points of other teams.

I disagree, and always have. He's fine, but that's about it. Think Reed would do as good a job, and he isn't even in JWP league (although they play in different positions so not really comparable).

Not at all, I just don't have access to YouTube at work so haven't watched what he's got to say. As I said earlier in the thread: What we need to see is people charged, and details about what has happened, and if as has been said has gone on, they should be hung out to dry (those that did it and those that have covered it up). As an aside I didn't feel it worthwhile posting a new thread on how much I hate Russell Brand, when he is on this thread...

Who'd have guessed hey? 27/01:

Oh yeah. There is a whole big section of it, explaining that compensation is given. It's the amount that is the chagrin here, and frankly the service.
