Latest FAB minutes from 11th May... That's 4 days after the 'spygate' story broke and, according to the minutes, there were no discussions about it at all...? Hmm, ok then... https://assets.ctfassets.net/qtmbc4zcgkle/173jxlne0vXdNAM1z1nerE/aede4bcd30cc733cb0e2a03281d7835e/Final_FAB_Minutes_11.5.26.pdf

As my old grandma Molly used to say... "Never assume"...

Yep... A power that Ross granted us when he signed the contract....

Ha... I had to do a double take too!

Larin shot blocked!

No, he's Canadian

Get in!!!

It's a tricky one... It's not as if Ross and/or his reps didn't know the "5 days notice after the end of the season" clause was in the contract... It would've been in there from the outset and he/they didn't have to agree with it when he signed.... And the only reason for such a clause would be that the club would likely only extend if they felt he was capable of playing in the Premier League week in, week out. So, all we attempted to do (until spygate scuppered it) was to exercise a clause that had been mutually agreed to in the first place. So it's not as if we've done anything that Stewart wouldn't have been expecting.... I therefore wouldn't call it "shoddy" behaviour from the club.

Yep, being 'shite' AND a 'bit of a twat' is always going to attract more flack than someone who is just shite...

If Tonda thinks he can DAJFU then I'd be happy to see how it pans out. As you say, he was a square peg in a round hole for Russball and could be much more suited to Tonda Tactics...

ITK klaxon! 🙂

Sounds ideal, assuming L1 isn't his ceiling of course...
