He was down for 25mins apparently, went off with a drip attached. Suspected broken neck let's hope it doesn't turn out to be or if it is he makes a full recovery like Dion Dublin did.

Football in pubs: North East pubs facing foreign channel crackdown
ToonTastic replied to a topic in Football
So does that mean the premier league will look to get around this ruling by putting their logo on all the feeds they put out, therefore allowing them to maintain how and to who the foreign providers distribute? Crop video stream and stream is no longer copyright. Only way I can see control staying is Sky buying the lot or Premier League buying the lot and selling it on, if that is indeed possible ? -
It's a dangerous game that, we've heard managers say that before about their fast starting teams, problem is when they eventually reach that 40 point target, those teams often switch off and lose focus. If I were him I would be just saying that we are trying to gain as many points as we can and we'll just see where that leaves us, no reason at all why he can not privately target a top 7 or 8 finish. Every season should always target 40 points first then create new targets. Helps prevent us having seasons like the one when we got relegated.

f*** Agent Bruce, I think we need to start praising Agent Quinn Isn't Quinn off to Man City to replace Cook(?) who got sacked from the board?

Change your settings before you login to the forum so it always takes you to the newest post in a thread. Otherwise if you scroll to the very very top of the page you will find page numbers so you can go to the end.

The EU ruling was due out in the next 3-6 months which is basically now. Anyone heard anything ? -
Trusting ryan Taylor to defend without much help there.
-
Didn't he turn it down first time round before keane got it?
-
probably the latter, with some history of injury (duh like all football players), but won't stop the usual suspect coming out with completely baseless theories that we only signed him because he was cheap due to his injury. Never knew an injury prone player could play 20-30 games a season! Surely being so young and already getting cartilage injuries doesn't bode well for a future without injury problems. Seems reading about other professional players of all types of sport (mainly Americans) although the operation is deemed a success, they struggle to come back without problems early on and it takes a very long lay off with high amounts of rehabilitation to make a full recovery from the injury. If Santon is still suffering since 2009 with this injury it may be he needs this full rehabilitation to be able to progress else we may be stuck with an injury prone player.

So he didn't have to make a save then? Simpson and S.Taylor did it for him. Got caught out a couple of times coming for the ball and then changing his mind, SWP tried chipping him both times one was going in but for Taylor's great clearance. I know he did mate. It was more a comment on how we managed to keep another clean sheet and their poor finishing, but some pedant decided to have a moan. Pop at me I'm guessing. You were making it come across that he had noubt to do but anyone watching the match knew that wasn't true. It wasn't due to great defence we kept a clean sheet last night it was down to their piss poor finishing.

So he didn't have to make a save then? Simpson and S.Taylor did it for him. Wow you really are glass more than half full lol
-
Considering we cleared 2/3 off the line this line about Krul not having to make a save that I keep reading makes me laugh.
-
Or not having enough matches under his belt after missing pre season with injury he just mightn't be ready for speed of PL.
-
After the match! Dedication gone already I see

I'll change the setting, it's an Admin one. Star And has the hidden post count always been a conscious decision? Post counts are available in your profile stats. They've never been on display in this view. Yep, I know. Just most forums show them and this new 2.0 did until they were turned off (I took a sneak peak ). Just being nebby on the reasoning Used to be turned off because it caused so many shit posts from people reaching milestone numbers or people posting just to boost their numbers.
-
He didn't have the time to do it. We've left the option open to him if he wants to in the future. We just had to get moved, basically. Ah cool, wasn't complaining like, looks really good how it is. Just bought tapatalk to try it out and I haven't got a clue how to add a forum to it You have to go on tapatalk and do a search for this place, don't think it's fully set up yet though.

It's the greatest image of all time, I feel sorry for you for missing out

Question I guess also is whether there is a clause in his contract like keegans where he has to pay cash if he resigns.
-
He spent 130+ million of his money to buy the club. Then he had to repay loans the previous owners had at the amount of around 70 million, and spend 66 million to keep the club going. He did this by loaning the club around 150 million from his own pocket. The first sum he will only get back if he sells the club, the second sum the club will have to repay him, but with no interest. Ok this kinda explains my last question. But is there anything to stop him getting the first sum back before he sells the club?
-
No. Why not ? If he gets all debts repaid by never buying another player then he has the club for no expense, like the Glazers. It's not like a normal sale of a club where the money is spend and never seen again, he wants it back.
-
Because if he sells the club for 150 million, its a profit Well, yeah, but only 12m. And so what? He spent his own money to buy the club. Whether it was done through a holding company, and whether the debt is on the books of the holding company and/or the club is largely irrelevant. It's his business so whether he chooses to put it as a debt on the club balance sheet, pay it off in chunks, pay it off now is up to him. It all boils down to the same thing really. It would be that simple if the club had created all of the debts on there own but he's added £138m to the clubs debt which wasn't there before he bought it. That's whats so bad about this not whether he chooses to pay it back or not or makes a profit on sale. Well in my eyes anyway.
