1. we are talking about pre match pressers here.......as I was referring to. No other ones2. The pre match ones are split into 2 sessions. One for the general public, fans etc can get a listen to and hear the latest on players, team news and other relevant info ( well thats what it should be), and then cameras are turned off for the 2nd session with newspapers 3. If you dont like pre match pressers...dont watch them and/or comment on them...simples

but the average over 10 years is somewhere around 68-70 points. All depends on the mid range and lower clubs taking pounts off the top 4 or not

I cannot believe that the incident you mention and the aftermarth are the 100% reasons why she left the club.There just has to be more to it and if rumours are right, this had been simmering all summer and that incident was the straw that broke the camels back for everyone involved

urm..get your facts right sonny.The reason why I said I liked last weeks presser was because it was simple and straight to the point..i.e. who was injured, who was fully fit, a bit about contracts , touch about Liverpool and batting away a couple of stupid qustions and that was about it. None of the media circus and sensation story making headlines. Nothing about "falling for it" and his orate skills and I also pulled you up on it last week when you made the stupid comment that if games being won in pressers we would be champion....actually, our pressers are normally very bad because of the media circus and the line of questioning and we would near the bottom of any such PC league. Which is exactly the reason why I found last weeks on refreshing and decent because there was hardly any of the BS. Find it amusing that the few posters (not neccessarily you) who say they dont watch the pressers (for their own various reasons) seem to have a lot to say on them

first Hazard, then Fabregas...now Costa. Wonder who it will be by tomorrow?

do they really learn from their urine sample?

well that was an entertaining presser. But I know there is a few on here that dont take any notice of them.....so for those ones, just disregard any comments our club captain made

in that case ...can we go down the 'spartacus' route...I'm Spartacus, no I'm Spartacus

lets get this right...unless it stipulates in her contract she specifically has to be on the bench on matchdays (and being on it is regarded as a higher position than not being on it) then she was not demoted or relegated. She kept her job title and just didnt turn up for work for the next few weeks before leaving the club. Whether that was down to being traumatised due to the alleged treatment by Jose and the club.....who knows...it will come out in the wash. There is also the issue that this was just the tip of the iceberg regarding her ( again allegedly ) At the moment, she hasnt claimed for any type of discrimination (hard to prove with Jon Fearn involved ) but we do not know behind the scenes what has happened, so if constructive dismissal is what she is after then I suggest that this is not about the money/compensation but rights and self esteem

Fabregas a splitter, he wears a splitters hat He could have played for Jose, but he said no fuck that He got his mates together, they didnt like his style Playing shoite till Jose's gone...........could be a short while

urm...is this the right time to burst into "Fabregas is magic, he wears a magic hat" ?

what are you on about?????

so if a new man comes in and we start winning immediately....shame on the players or not?

do a runner and dont pay

is todays ban a separate issue from the first or have they applied the first one ( suspended) to this one? edit: just seen that it is separate

depends what day of the week it is and which media sources you follow/believe

he has appealed the first one.....surely he can appeal the 2nd?

them tea ladies have got a lot to answer for .....get MI5 in and question them on possible leaks

Perhaps , instead of offering the job to a 'big' name....they could offer it to an up and coming manager who has worked at big clubs and for big names but is now starting to make a name for himself. Ladies and Gentleman...I give you not Brendan, but Paul Clement ;-)

if he is to go....I hope the board offer only a 2 -3 year deal to a permenant replacement and only extend contracts in last year of a current one to a max of 2 years at a time. Also I wonder if there is a case against Mourinho for a reduced severance due to bringing the club into disrepute etc etc

polluted by some questionable ethics and attitude as well

perhaps in the clubs eyes....Mourinho isnt the problem for everything

urm.....KdB 's word is gospel eh!!!!Mourinho speaks to players in groups....but has always said his door is open if a player wants to speak to him. Your post just proves that KdB wanted special treatment

or perhaps he just treated him like any other player at that time instead of special treatment for someone so new to the team....(not club)

the team actually set up as 442 and went at them. Not sure who made the call for them to sit back after 15 mins.......could have been JT once he realised that some of the forward and midfield were not tracking the runners. But what matters that it doesnt matter what system, what tactics, what individual responsibilities are asked of players......if anyone is just going through the motions and not giving a 100% because they dont like the tactics etc then they shouldnt be in the team/squad or worse case scenario...at this club
