Mate the board give up on ambition yesterday.

Because the day before that when we were full of ambition, we were going down !

Well so much for justice then,something smells fishy to the press then off to prison you go!What he did was tell undercover reporters how it's done.Do you honestly think he's the only Prem manager who knows?

Plenty of people do things, don't get caught and don't go to prison. Does not mean they did not do it though. Loads of people in society are known cheats and have never been caught, but they still did the cheating. And the premise of your argument is the England fiasco, there have been stories galore over the years of alleged bungs, brown envelopes etc. Of course I am not able to categorically state that he DID do those things, but .....

Some words of wisdom to help us through....

Wise words indeed, Dave.

Also wise to remember:

That was only that one time when he was England manager. He was also investigated for allegedly taking money for signing certain players and also allegedly forcing players to sign with certain agents or he wouldn't play them. I guess we'll soon see now all the old mates are together again.

No we weren't. But the board and bet wetters like you thought we was.

That's not what I said whatsoever. I said there's no proof and according to UK law there's satisfaction no wrongdoing occurred with the evidence presented to them.

So you can only go on what's in the public domain. Maybe you can wonder why, after working to get to the pinnacle of his profession, and indeed his dream job to boot, the man then allows himself to be caught in a rudimentary newspaper sting advising people how to circumvent rules that his own employer have implemented. At best it's incredibly stupid. There are other words you can use too. Bent, greedy, egotistal, nihilistic......

Still it's a good stick to beat him with I suppose.

There's no shortage of sticks to beat him with.

 

[Bluerobins]

I thought that was good interview (5 minute one) on the main site. He knows exactly what he wants each and every individual to do. I don't imagine Koeman cared a jot about the players. I'm hopeful

The thing is HMRC (are they still called that?) would be all over any slight suspicion of anything like he's being linked with.Given the recent Paradise Papers scandal,the chances of keeping cash bungs quiet would be near impossible.

 

[Little Ralphy]

Heard a clip of him earlier saying he was going to look to the experienced players and ask them what they can do better. I guess he's not been watching us much this season then cos it's those players who are the problem.

Are you seriously that naive mate?

Being stupid after a few drinks isn't criminal or the jails would be full.Still maybe Moshiri employed him to make the spotlight point eleswhere.

Don't know,are you? Or do you know of a way to hide cash payments taken over many years.If you do please let me know.
