Had to chuckle when i read that Middlesbro CC 2nd XI are lodging 2 extra complaints of Saltburn cheating against them. Something in the smoggy air in them parts

It's the fact that transferfeed have actually reported it.

Experience tells me that preventing a player leaving due to a exceedingly high transfer fee will create an issue - hence he wants talks to set out his expectation of that fee. If the fee is set too high from his point of view, he wont be jumping for joy. Sure, he's done nothing yet....except state he wants talks. If he was perfectly happy with his current lot and 'living for the day', then why the need for any talks at all? It's obvious what he wants - a reasonable transfer fee that lets him go to the PL and/or a higher wage. Nothing new here.

Welcome to SaintsWeb, Locationremot4! 🙂

As proof I'm only in the centrist club because my views cancel out, that pushed my inner socialist button. 🙂 Who are these elite people for whom university should be for? Firstly, I have a button that rejects "elite" on principal. Thirdly, (inside SaintsWeb gag, from when @Matthew Le God was telling us how smart he was, only to not be able to count to two.) Secondly, what are the key professions, and is university the best place for people to get the key skills for those professions? Thirdly, is a personal anecdote. When I was at Big School, I had to do a day release at a technical college for a while, as they were building new labs. The people on the similar courses there were brighter and more technically minded. They were the people you'd actually depend on, if you wanted something done, over our lot. Even then Big Schools were more concerned with their own profits than courses. In the times I've been back, that's only accelerated. There are "pointless degrees" and there are also plenty of seemingly useful ones, that aren't fit for purpose. It's been an industry for a long time now. Burnham's focus on technical skills are welcome. But it's just part of a needed overhaul.

Not to go all MLG on you, but you don't know that it"will be" an issue. He's done nothing so far to indicate he's kicking off or agitating for a move - if anything he's come across as one of the nicest guys in football and someone who very much lives for the day and whatever life brings.

Meanwhile, Channel 4 exposing last night how Christopher Harborne has been breaking the law by voting and claiming that he lives in Highclere in N Hants when he clearly lives in Thailand ensuring East Stand Nic gets regular massages/wanks, and now being investigated by the Electoral Commission as a result https://www.channel4.com/news/how-a-crypto-billionaire-used-gaping-loopholes-to-bankroll-reform More exclusives being hinted at online by the Times about Farage. And he can’t say he didn’t know what George Cottrell was up to https://www.hatchards.co.uk/book/how-to-launder-money/george-cottrell/9781837360406 Reform make Portsmouth FC in the mid-0s to early 10s look spotless by comparison 😂

Well, as you say, how happy he is if we make him stay without any offer to improve terms is another question. Of course, we can put our foot down and say "you are under contract and you are staying" but experience tells us that doesn't always work out well for the club/team. I suppose the way I'm looking at it, he was our best player last season (majority on here voted him as player of season as I recall) so whilst we don't have to give him a pay rise, I don't see it as ridiculous for us to reward him for his efforts last season, especially if it helps persuade him to give it another season in the Championship to try to get up with us. Of course, it will be difficult to replace the impact he has for us in this league (although I accept noone is irreplaceable) so surely better to keep him as a happy, committed player if at all possible?

If Steve Gibson has been given out caught behind at Saltburn, he'll be demanding the death penalty.

What a strange phrase. What is the club going to say other than "get promotion"? All players want to play in the PL. he just doesn't want to be prevented from doing so by a high asking price and any discussion will be along the lines of. "I want to be allowed to leave for a PL club if they offer £Xm...oh and in the mean time I want my wage to increase".

Flamin’ Nora, didn’t realise he is Reform. No depths, literally, their candidates won’t sink to.

This has to be a full on wind-up. If it actually happens I will retire from this site.

They are obviously bored with little in the way of decent rumours. Make up shit and see how many bites you can get is obviously the thing during the school summer holidays!

Kind of expecting a decision tomorrow just because I’m on holiday and there’s a Skate here. Something draconian will f@@k my week away right up

Unless he does a Morgan and is professional about it

This...exactly.

He's contracted until 2029. We don't need to do anything to retain his services for another year. If a PL side comes in and offers £30m, financially it makes sense to us and of course he wants to play in the PL, so he goes. If they don't, whether he wants the move or not, he stays. How happy he is, is another question. As I mentioned, the issue will be if we get an offer of say £20m. He may feel that the club doubling their money in a year is suffice. We may disagree...and then things start to get messy.

Does Farage know anyone who isn't a criminal although, strictly speaking, he hasn't been convicted yet but he's pleaded guilty and is looking at a long stretch.

Now received. My contact in the Ticket Office said the were 'working through ' them which might imply a decent turn out!

Why are you guys playing silly games with these rumours.

Also possible that Lincoln might be paper tickets if they still operate that way, if so will sell out to very high away numbers , Wrexham coming up as well was paper tickets last season for another small allocation

Where is that mentioned please?

if we can get Fraser back, we would be cooking

Absolutely now for the tax cuts 😂
