Lush Vlad Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35872542 It really is quite difficult, to muster any support for our club and some of the utter cunts that have been involved with it, in recent times. I wasn't particularly interested until Benitez was appointed. I'm sure it will all end in tears with him, as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Didn't we avoid triggering his contract extension simply because he wasn't actually very good? Hard to ague against that evidence tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Come on Jonas! Drag Pardew into this. Spill the beans and let that cunt be under even more pressure. You might even help us out indirectly too! Love this guy man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An option in a contract is surely an "option" and nothing more. I think had it been based solely on his perceived inability to get back into the squad due to poor quality / fitness then you'd be right. However, the history of events suggest it was a pre-determined decision as soon as he got cancer, and therefore a debate of discrimination in the workplace rather than unfair dismissal. Could be wrong like? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complete utter c***s. cant believe how shit that actually is Never a world beater but he did some important things for us and was just a genuinely nice guy, our bunch of contemptuous cunts don't even have the heart to ask him if he's OK. I don't even treat people at work I don't like very much like that, as a boss/employer you need to show some kind of empathy or what message does it send to everyone else? This clearly tipifies where our deep rooted "don't give a shit" attitude stems from. So much healing needs done on this club man, better get Hoddle in ffs.

midds Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Union Berlin extend contract of cancer sufferer Benjamin Köhler The second division German club Union Berlin have extended the contract of Benjamin Köhler by a year after he was diagnosed with a rare type of stomach cancer. “I’m going to fight it,” said Köhler. “It’s a massive blow for my family and I – first I’ve got to process it, but then I’m going to fight it with everything I’ve got. We’ll be seeing each other again for sure.” The Berlin club, known for their independent spirit and fan loyalty, said the contract of the 34-year-old midfielder, running out at the end of the season, had been extended by a year to 2016 after he was informed of the diagnosis. The former Germany youth international was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma – an uncommon form of cancer – earlier this week when doctors found a malignant tumour in his stomach. “Benny is and remains an important part of our team,” said the manager, Norbert Düwel, in a statement. “His illness came as a shock for all of us. But we are all certain that Benny will again wear the Union shirt. He is a fighter on and off the pitch.” Union have long carved out a reputation as a non-mainstream club and during the existence of East Germany stayed in the shadows of Dynamo Berlin, who were back by the hated secret police, the Stasi. Union and their fans are known for their loyalty, having organised blood donations in the past to help save the club. The club have also given fans the chance to own part of the stadium, by issuing 10,000 shares at €500 each in 2011, while hundreds helped rebuild the stadium two years earlier, working in daily shifts as volunteers. Köhler joined Union in 2013 and has played 49 games, scoring six goals. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/feb/06/union-berlin-extend-contract-cancer-stricken-player Compare and contrast folks.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 This will only prove what we already know - our club are cunts. Feel sorry for him, decent guy treated poorly. But all this case will do is take money out of the club's purse, Ashley wont let it come out of his. I like Gutierrez, but I think I'd rather spend £2m on a player in the summer than compensate an already insanely wealthy man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 He was poorly handled by the club but I hope loses his case. There are plenty of players frozen out and we have done it to others as well, we'd loaned him to Norwich which was a fairly clear indication that he wasn't wanted. His goal against West Ham is how I want to remember him not as someone taking a punt on getting money out of the club. If he wins and donates the money to cancer research I'll gladly cheer him on.
