Baird of the land

He was good for us in the prem but that was years ago. He’s 31 now and yes legs do go as players get older, especially one who’s whole success was covering every blade of grass. His fall from grace at WH, forest and Burnley isn’t some glitch.

With peretz likely not a goer, I’m hoping saints can get Shea’s brother from Sheffield Wednesday.

Please no. He hasn't got the legs to play cm at any high level.

Because they really respect his ability as a coach, which is what matters for their careers moving forward. Peretz has already come out with a positive message about him.

I know some nobody lawyer has spouted mights/maybe/possible case garbage about terminating contracts but seems pretty far fetched to me, so I’ll believe it when I see it. Curious are Leicester fans having to suffer this garbage as they actually were relegated due to the 6 point league sanction whereas we missed on a playoff against a team that beat us twice.

Agree completely. Like last season there will be a few out to balance the books, with some of that being reinvested in the squad. If the board permit a mass exodus they should be sacked.

keep, unless FA decide we can’t. We’ve a good young manager and a club with a terrible record at appointing managers. Ripping it up and starting won’t lead anywhere good. This whole movement to self flagellate is weird to me.

Really disappointing how pathetic Everton are playing. Zero effort.

Glad to see they didn't benefit from their lucky loser status.

Amateurish, surely you bring in that top lawyer for the initial hearing, not after the horse has bolted

Agree with Hull that if we are expelled they should get a walkover. Lawyers are going to have a big pay day.

If we're stupid enough to sack him he'll get a job abroad as what he was doing is considered perfectly normal everywhere else.

I’d take hyperbole tonight with a pinch of salt, especially when the word may is used. There doesn’t seem to be a legal precedent for players tearing up contracts because club gets a league punishment. Even bosman ruling took 5 years to go through the courts.

Can’t see how any players would have any legal course of action. Leicester players don’t seem to be doing so. A couple will force their way out like they did last summer but club would be morons if they permitted a mass exodus of key players.

There’s a difference between blown up and the nuclear meltdown if you start ripping out key personnel at a key time for starting preparation for next season.
