Paul Chuckle Posted 21 July, 2022 Share Posted 21 July, 2022 1 minute ago, Matthew Le God said: Shane Long left the club 3 weeks ago. He left the club on 1 July, which by my calculations is only 20 days ago, so your statement of 3 weeks is incorrect. Had you have said 2 weeks and 6 days ago you'd have been correct. 6 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The contracts expire at midnight on 30th June. Therefore a player cannot leave the club before that time, they can only leave once the contract is expired. Which would be on 1st July. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a player is contracted up to and including 30th June. It’s pretty obvious when it expires, at the end of that day. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was an office job with a contract until 30th June and you finished work at 5pm on 30th June would you get paid anything else for the time from 5pm to midnight? No Footballers aren't even doing any work on 30th June. It is their holiday time! This is all very silly! 😁😇 Edited 21 July, 2022 by Matthew Le God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all very silly! 😁😇 It’s not an office job. And your analogy makes no sense, it depends entirely on what the conditions of work are. You also previously said that contracts only include dates, not times. So it’s an irrelevant comparison. I agree, you are being very silly 👍 Edited 21 July, 2022 by The Kraken 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
