Delightful, money desperately needs pumping into the club & as good as ALKs intentions are you can’t extract blood from a stone, the Saudis aren’t a bad bunch generally speaking as another brucey bonus.

Football is paid for by sponsors, tv and fans. Doctors and nurses are paid for by everyone (unless private, then they are paid for by those that use, like football). It is bonkers though, you are right. I know. I’m completely opposed to the excessive sponsorship & overpriced merchandise, Nike & Adi...

Obviously Newcastle's take over is a completely different beast to ours. But that doesn't necessarily mean that them having the ability to splash the cash is a guarantee that they'll get out of trouble. They've spent a hell of a lot of money under Ashley and look where they are. The policy will be ...

How have they got no money?

They’ve got money via a credit facility with the bank.

Usually the clock app is preinstalled by the manufacturer I’d check to see if it needs updating to eliminate any bugs & even delete the app (if it allows you) & reinstall & if that doesn’t work try using a free third party clock app.

As much as I feeling uncomfortable with that statement, KRBFC is correct. You cannot compare doctors and nurses pay with footballers, not least because we are part of the problem. We fuel those wages. Who would pay £900 for a telephone? But if you want an iphone 13 pro, that's what you have to pay,...

The dumbest argument ever is the comparison between footballers wages and nurses/doctors.

I can’t believe people are saying it’s reasonable. The world seems to be going to hell on a handcart but football thinks players are worth tens of millions and are willing to pay them telephone number wages. Those who the gods wish to destroy they first make mad. It’s bonkers complete madness the m...

Is the risk of a scalding Bene any higher than that of a brew?

Surely the more selection of hot drinks increases the likelihood of getting scalded & I’ve never known coffee/tea/bovril make people unsteady.

We would be missed when absent. Everton are now, not dissimilar to our style. That is Benitez and yet he is lauded. The Prem want big city teams with big modern stafiums to look good on TV.

Another little nugget to add to the fact that we didn't qualify for Europe is that we aren't a properly run club. Shame we don't even have a proper training ground, isn't it?

Saw them on MOTD, this is the third occasion that I've seen them this season. They look a very good exiting team, with a few players that would walk into our side. Why are they able to sigh these players and we can't. Do they have wealthy backers that I'm not aware of When I watch MOTD I cannot see...

Yes, of course we knew, but especially in cornet's case he's battling a hamstring injury, and it's vital we wrap him in cotton wool and get him back fit no later than Southampton away, so no way should he be going on international duty. In Roberts case as has been mentioned he could potentially ben...

So you think a team that's got seven points after seven matches this season can't get relegated?

I didn't use the word 'multi' so I'll refrain from defining it in this context - I think I said significant compensation. You post that article after suggesting such reports are unreliable.

I'm not suggesting that Watford will pay compensation at the level Chelsea have in the past. No, I don't want you compare their wealth. It's the manager's salary and length of contract that typically determines the amount of compensation payable in the event of dismissal. Pace isn't at all wealthy ...

It sounds like it was clear enough in their accounts. That's how we know about the vast sums of money chelsea have paid in compensation for example.

I’m leaving it there unless you want me to do a like for like comparison on pozzo & Abramovichs wealth, good day.

'According to Adam Leventhal of The Athletic, Hughes has turned down a new Watford contract. The offer was a five-year deal, one which would make him amongst the club’s top earners with a significant raise in pay.' So basically what Watford was offering still wasn’t enough & palace offered more. pa...

Another assumption are we assuming that’s a continuing trend with every managers contract onwards again assuming that the article is true, exactly my point lots of assumptions but nothing is 100% factually true.

A completely unrelated matter, but how do you know they refused to pay Hughes more if you are not the club's accountant?.

Just say it’s an assumption I’m also allowed 1 like you. It’s not unrelated if my assumption is true because it’s highlighting that Watford can’t afford to splash the cash.

Jakubclaret

You don't have to be an accountant working at a premier league club. The sports media report with a fair degree of accuracy. So I think if it gets consistently reported that Munoz will receive compensation it's reasonable to conclude he will get it; likewise if it's signalled in the media he's not ...

Jakubclaret

Of course anything can be written into a contract. It's just I've never come across a Premier League manager being sacked and not being entitled to compensation. Have you? No because I don’t have personal first hand knowledge of managers contracts because I’m not employed as an accountant working f...

When has this happened in the Premier League before? The only way I can realistically see them not having to pay seven figure compensation is if he only had a few months left on his contract. It could be put into any contract all sorts of conditions can be put into contracts if it’s agreed it’s leg...

I think it's a fairly safe or guaranteed assumption.

We don’t know if the multi million severance is true it could be agreed that if a certain target isn’t met that could be waivered or substantially reduced.

So is a multi million pound severance package.

You are assuming that’s the case we don’t know the full details of that, if that is the case it’s hard to believe it makes any business sense hiring & firing so often.

But yet people still agree to take up the position, I think the expectations are unrealistic why so many people seem to fail you would have thought by now a few red flags would be raised to any potential manager incoming, I guess a jobs a job when all said & done.

It cannot be interpreted that it was not intentional he was attempting to deliberately punch the ball clear The non intentional rule can surely only be applied to a hand ball I don’t know like I say that was the reason that was given on the radio that’s all I do know & that reason is the only reaso...

There will still be the problem of getting decent balls to them, which is as much to do with how we set up and how we play as it is to do with personnel.

I’m not sure what your point is but the argument is that they should be making proper use of the technology.

Has anyone seen a super slow-mo? Is there the slightest chance that Krul actually did brush the ball?

Why bother with all the technology when you’ve got a pair of eyes hundreds of yards away to depend upon.

You could have included that into another moaning thread.

The only thing to understand is did VAR look at it, there certainly didn’t seem to be a check, and if not why not. The rest is very clear, the referee got it badly wrong.

If Krul had got to the ball a fraction of a second before Vydra and Vydra had clattered into him knocking him over I think we can be very sure what the referee’s decision would have been.

The others werent penalties for me but we should have had at least one corner. The Krul one though is just about as clear a pen as you can see, he is late and he punches Vydra square in the head.

Utterly pointless. By the time an engineer had installed such a facility, the fuel crisis will have ended.

Yes it’s futile short term but if the shortages ever became long term & consumers had to be rationed that’s the best way of going about it.

You could fit a probe into the tank & it would detect if the fuel capacity in the tank is sufficient enough to hold the £30 shot, to prevent the overflowing issue that’d only apply to a minority of customers because the vast numbers would turn up knowing that £30 is enough.
