They (Wael) had said that they will sack him but now that the fans are gushing over him the majority would want a little bit of wife beating overlooked. I suspect that it will, with weasel words, come down to the level of sentencing if he is found guilty. Suspended sentence and community service - oh it's not really that serious so we won't sack him for that. A few weeks jail - well he's learned his lesson and is contrite so it would be wrong to sack a man who has reformed. Six months jail - well surely even Wael would have to sack him then. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke_bristol Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 He’s got the best brief money can buy, and he’s got away with one court case already. I expect him to be found Not Guilty, even though I think he’s guilty as sin from the public evidence. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So through the Gas, and JB's extensive scouting network they've identified & signed a scouser from Fleetwood. Top work there.

PHILINFRANCE Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Further to my earlier post, this gives me even more reason to believe that JB's legal case is destined to 'go away'. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/61877624 I would suggest that a player signing for his former manager would be unlikely to do so if he feared his former manager was unlikely to be there at the start of training/for the season/forever.

If they couldn't convict him, when found standing over another person who's on the floor bleeding, because nobody actually saw him do it - I don't think a retracted statement from his drunk Mrs is going to hold up.

If he’s the aggressor there’s no knowing what damage he may do to her in the future and if she’s a liar then what stories will she make up next time they have a massive argument? What a state.

Funnily enough that was the exact storyline when Rovers featured in a 1958 episode of the long running BBC Home Service series Mrs Dunford's Dairy. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 22 minutes ago, Lydered said: https://gasheads.proboards.com/ I see the fruit pie in the sky stadium is still living rent free in their heads. Maybe it's a long trip down from the wastelands of the north, but they don't seem to have noticed the extensive building that has taken place there in the last year or so, claiming there isn't a soul around to counter any planning permission. Yet the Paintworks is being extended, the new affordable housing is being built on the corner of Totterdown Bridge leading down to the FM, all to be filled with potential new nimbies, I think it is rapidly looking less and less suitable for a stadium project.

Is he complimentary? Have a guess. As a clue, here's a slightly paraphrased quote: "I just thought why? Why be like that?" Also, listen to the whole thing. He's an interesting bloke, kind off a Forrest Gump of recent football. Often there in those "moments" but rarely in the foreground.

I did, very good. He talks well and is entertaining. If any of the right people hear it, I hope they dump Savage and Owen and Give Sedum a go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
