You're living in dreamland if you think this won't now rumble on for years. By going down the road they've chosen, the club have opened themselves up to all manor of legal disputes, claims and counter-claims ALL of which will involve solicitors and legal advisers.
The alternative option would...
Thanks for highlighting this. Starting to really really dislike the ways things seem to be done at the Albion at the moment. Trying to the fans against Gus is a sad and sorry little game they're playing.
I think they'll be delighted you're pointing the finger at FFP. We've seen a huge amount of spin on FFP to try and ensure it's seen as the reason behind any unpopular decision like ticket prices. Why should Gus buy his way out of his contract? He may well have accepted a cheap and quick offer to...
Absolute shambles. Talk about misplaced sense of importance from Barber and the board... what the **** does Gus care about this completely pointless 'suspension', he's leaving anyway. Whoever handled this sorry episode is operating way out of their pay bracket. it could and should have been...
All so unnecessary. Gus wanted to to leave and i think most fans agreed that it was perhaps time for a change of management for next season. So why bother with this farcical suspension nonsense. In reality, Gus has all the power - he's the one who's highly sought after.
I find it really sad to...
Shambles. Whoever decided to act all Mr Tough Guy at the club and impose the suspensions is a complete moron. Gus wanted to leave anyway, so let him walk away or sack him if needs be. Does anybody really think Gus gives too hoots about this comedy suspension? He has all of the power in this...
Oscar in. Vicente and Lopez back in. Plus some additional Spanish flair and perhaps some of those lads from the Israel U21 team who looked okay the other night.
I'm not being smug. If you read my post you'll see from my post that i fully expect us to treat promotion the same way you will... by treating the TV bounty with extreme profligacy and frittering it away on overrated players and overblown wages. But there's only so far a club with a ramshackle...
Have i hit a nerve there mate! It doesn't matter how much extra money you get from being in the Premiership, history clearly shows you that whatever is available is spent and ultimately wasted on wages in the pursuit of staying there. We'll do the same when we're promoted. All clubs, other than...
Yes because Wolves have done so well from their Premiership stint haven't they! And Blackburn. And Burnley. And Charlton. And Derby. And loads and loads of similar sized clubs who've been in the premiership in recent years, without making much long-term difference to their finances and overall...
Presumably we'll have a new manager by then, so this will be his second game in charge. So presumably he'll be taking it seriously, unlike Gus last year, for example, and other established championship managers who'll want to concentrate on the league. You can't really afford many losses as a...
