Fair point.

Half the shots on target have been goals in that match. The goalkeeping in that league must be fucking rank.

Didn't Paul McGrath have a deal like that at Villa?

Yeah there'd still be about 9 of their players in those combined XIs they used to love, with the other two places as a draw so they don't look biased.

Off the market again, at least until the next transfer window rolls around. It's almost as if none of this means anything and is just utter bullshit. But thankfully I'm not that cynical and believe every word from the club.

That crowd.

Bit annoyed we scored, quite wanted to see Almiron get some time.

Body confirmed as that of Sala

Tbf it probably will bankroll a league 1 team.

If they all just believe a bit more, it'll be fine.

Yes, we should be fighting to get Ashley out, not accepting him staying but trying to legislate him into behaving.

But you certainly make sure you don't give them any money when you know what they're going to do with it.

The Euro may or may not drop, but the pound will drop in relation to the Euro, there's no doubt about that.

Wait until our glorious no-deal brexit. It'll be about £250m.

An option to buy doesn't mean we'll buy. We all know he's going back after the next few months.

I have to strongly dispute this. You can't just terminate someone who is good at their job and then prove that's legitimate at tribunal. Especially if you've offered them a new contract! AND done it to everyone else on the payroll too. Like I said earlier, I've been through this twice myself. Successfully. Once against one of the biggest North East employers who thought they could bully their staff and that nobody would dare stand up to them. You simply cannot change someone's contract without their permission. Anyway, Ashley's a cunt. Let's get back to something we all agree on!

Some people are hired for a certain amount of time. Proper specialist programmers for example. In entertainment folks might be hired for X amount of shows. Normally in retail, customer service etc there is no end date as such once hired. Yeah, fair point. Forgot about contractors.

That's not strictly true. Employers can go extreme and do something called 'Terminate and re-engage' where they basically terminate your contract and offer you the new one. If you don't accept it, you don't have a job. As I said, that's extreme but they can do that But that termination is unfair dismissal. Take them to court and you will win unless they can show that had a valid reason to terminate you.

To say a little more on this, I get that employers often try to change people's contacts, often to terms which are worse for the employees. I also get that many employees feel they have to sign these contracts. But you don't. You can just say "no" and insist you work under the old terms. Any attempt to sack you for that or terminate your contract would count as unfair dismissal.

Where do you work where your contract has an expiry date on it?

2 loan threads. There's something of a difference.

From what I've heard they wont have many staff left to fill them, leaving in their droves because of the new contracts. Why don't they just refuse the new contracts? I've done that twice at separate employers. Nobody can just change your contract unless you agree to it. What happens then? Can’t they just sack you for not agreeing to a contract? No.

I don't understand how anyone can pay to go to the matches and willingly put money in MAs pockets, especially if they're not happy with what he's doing with the club. He's mugging you off and laughing in your face - quite literally if you see the TV pictures - and you're paying him for the privilege. Have some self-respect, ffs.
