    Just caught lads, was too bladdered last night to post. Think this could have been the most important point so far. Fulham will drop points so two more wins needed. Does anyone know if Pontus hits 15 yellows (which he will as refs are itching to book him) the ban definitely carries into the play off games?

    Can anybody please try to clear this up for me.

    Everywhere I look it says Jannson has 13 yellows (after last night). Yet everyone seems to say he is one yellow away from 15 which is a 3 game ban.

    You're absolutely wrong on this one. I watched it frame by frame. He started to come out, then realised the ball was 15 yards out, and was out of his range. He then correctly covered the near post - textbook-style & perfectly, then as the ball was knocked across goal, he came over to cover - and did, but a fraction too late. I defy anyone to save that. He was absolutely blameless for the goal, and nearly made an impossible save. Now if only the defence had did their jobs as well as him ....

    To be fair to the defence, it was just one mistake in a very fraught game. They were quite wonderful, and it impressed me that we were not losing by several goals.

    LL, please watch it frame by frame & then come back & specify EXACTLY what he did wrong. Your statement above suggests he should have come out for the ball, but it was not on - it was too far out & he has a defence to cover that area. 15 yds is out of the question. A moment after the hesitation, he was positioned perfectly.

    I think I know my (ex-) clients better than you.

    Current customers would regularly sign extensions, that is correct. However sometimes a new contract would be effected if it suited all parties.

    I don't recall any customer moving from HP. Where on earth did you get that from? Or is that fact now too?

    'Pre contracts' is a vague phrase normally reserved for the footballing world. Our equivalent was to have customers sign LOIs - Letters of Intent, which were as legally binding as all parties wanted them to be (full phrase was 'letter of intent to proceed'. Couldn't remember it all earlier). This could be an intention to proceed with a new contract, new extension, alteration of t&c's etc. I would fully expect football clubs to be fully familiar with this instrument & have the capability of making it legally binding if they wanted to. But it takes 2 to tango to make that happen.

    It may well have been discussed ad nauseum, but without having sight of the wording of the document concerned, it is simply speculation. So how can you possibly know if it is legally binding or not?

    Pre contractual agreements (for that is what it is) are unenforceable under English law.
    I am not interested in what happened at IBM before they binned you off.
    Go pay for legal advice if my word aint good enough.

    I must confess to being a bit rusty on that one, El. Are you sure people weren't simply saying that we didn't need to better them in January? Surely they weren't saying we didn't need any backup?

    (This is the point where hundreds of links are posted with me personally saying we didn't need any more :D).

    First of all, to be clear, I requested a package so I could join my wife in early retirement. I was not 'binned off', as you put it.

    So here we are with another Glory special. A statement that is complete nonsense and no evidence to back up his statement. Why let the truth get in the way of a good story? Sorry, old boy, but you're wrong. And I'll fall for it & provide the evidence.

    If you take the time to read this link, you will see that your absolute statement is a load of old tosh, as this article states quite clearly

    http://www.steeleslaw.co.uk/news/letters-of-intent-can-be-legally-binding-in-place-of-a-contract

    Just to make it even easier for you, here's the salient first paragraph:

    Letters of Intent can be Legally Binding in Place of a Contract
    The Court has recently held that letters of intent can be legally binding in place of a formal contract. James Tarling examines some of the situations in which this may occur.

    Letters of Intent, Heads of Terms or Memoranda of Understanding are commonly used during the process of negotiation, to establish and set down terms which may later form the basis of a formal contract.

    However, it had been widely assumed that such letters of intent were not legally binding and merely acted as an outline of the parties' intentions or the basis for the negotiation of a contract.

    As a result of recent case law however, it would appear that letters of intent can, depending upon their nature and the circumstances, be legally binding. There are therefore key issues which need to be considered in relation to any letter of intent.

    Don't think they were Elland,more the case of we all knew the club would only invest in a couple of new players,and people prioritised other areas.
