There is actually someone on here who has been saying this for quite a while now...but guess what...it's not you.

"Expect news early next week when players are due back. Club to provide briefing."

Didn't happen.

"Look I really don’t give a shit. I’ll stop passing off info on here."

You didn't.

'Feel free to apologise to me tomorrow.'

No one had to 

"Tomorrow or Monday"

It wasn't 

Unfortunately your post history only goes back to the 20th of September so we've only got a couple of weeks to look through.

 

 

You can still find his earlier work.

My understanding is the club are aware of said punishment but are considering options for appeal. Its not as harsh though as people fear. All I really know.

Do we have a plan in place for if it is not tomorrow after this latest leak? How do we handle that? 

MB said JWP would be joining on loan in January. Applying a similar time lag, that means Tonda will get until the end of the season to get us promoted before he bows out with his ban.

On a serious note, Parsons did say this could take several weeks to resolve from the time he gave his interview, so I'm not sure the verdict's necessarily coming before the derby.

I'm fully expecting the announcement to come at 1201 on Sunday, ban effective immediately.

Is this the announcement of what the club knew back at the beginning of August or a different one?

It's the one they've been appealing in secret for the last two weeks without telling anyone. 

[hypochondriac]

I hope if Tonda is to get banned that he gets Sunday. A thrashing of the skates would be a hell of a way to go out.

[RedArmy]

Must be in the training pictures just to say goodbye to everyone. 
 

Thanks for letting us know MB.

On a serious point, I think it's pretty likely that we are appealing a decision, and an NDA is locking down news in the interim.

Do you think we would appeal in any eventuality, whatever the severity, providing the FA have provided some form of sanction?

I’m not legally minded but I’m not sure a NDA is really applicable to this situation. If something is still being disputed it makes complete sense to do so privately and discreetly.

If it was felt reasonable, I'd imagine they'd live with it, but I don't think it'll be reasonable.

Turn of phrase - privacy agreement, whatever, an agreement to keep things hush hush.

What would the club class as reasonable? A suspended ban? In my mind no punishment would be reasonable.

[Saint_clark]

My source is obviously different to MB but he did confirm the announcement will take place sometime after now, which lines up with what MB has said.

No idea what they'd be willing to live with mate.

And before the end of time? I'd heard similar.

Not sure, he didn't rule out that it may take place beyond measured time.

It'll take place in quantum realm and will be every possibility all at once.

The NDA, if there is one, will relate to the decision, if one has been made, as I see it.
