    If they don’t go I would hope Ross doesn’t have them anywhere near the current crop of players.

    The lads seem to have something really good going and to bring in a cancer like they are could really knock things.

    Absolutely disgraceful from them both to not have found a club at all.

    I think they'll be told to come back and make a fuss now which will force the club into paying them off. They'll then be free agents and their agents will be able to negotiate higher signing on fees for the players and themselves using no transfer fee as leverage.

    I know people shouldn't do anything out of spite in business, that's not the way it's supposed to go down. I'd love it if we made them train on their own every day, though. Not with each other, on their own. I wouldn't allow them to train with the kids either which sometimes happens because they'll just poison them and take a bad energy wherever they go.

    Mutual termination tends to mean a pay off. 9 times out of ten it just means the player hasn't held the club to ransom to get every penny out of the contract.

    Rodwell will definitely have been paid off in return for letting us cancel his contract. He'd still be here if we hadn't given him something.

    All good mate. Not getting on so much with a huge new job and 50-60 hour weeks have become the norm for the first time in my life! Absolutely shattered.

    Missing the football and home but coming back for four weeks at christmas. Will be the first time in 3 years!

    How's the CBD stuff treating you? Family good?

    Sounds like you're being kept busy. I'm sure things will settle down for you soon and it's better than the alternative...

    I bet you're looking forward to getting home and seeing your family, if I remember rightly you used to spend time at the football with your old fella when you were in Manchester. Hopefully you can rekindle that and watch a match together during your time back over here. I assume things are good with you and Mrs Disco too <ok>

    My Mother passed away Christmas 2016, that was the last of my family really. I've got my two brothers but the oldest is now just a functioning alcoholic who I've seen once since Mam died and I'm drifting apart from my younger brother as time goes by. I'm just trying to put a new life together up here in Durham but it's gets a bit lonely from time to time because I'm very selective about who I become friends with, I'm determined not to get in with any trouble makers again.

    Business is good. Every month there's been a little improvement which is all I was looking for. I swallowed 100 tablets a couple weeks ago and when I was in intensive care my business partner walked out the business and took 95% of the money on his way out. I had to sign myself out and go sit in the shop like a ****ting shaking dog. I had the Sunday and Monday bank holiday off and that allowed me to get some rest. It's not ideal what he's done but I'm just trying to take the positives out of it. The main one being my money has just doubled over night. It was always my business anyway, I was the one with the knowledge and I deal with all the marketing and advertising. I just allowed him to jump on board because he was my mate. I've had a very good week and yesterday was outstanding so I'm already back on track. I have other money coming in until next April so I don't need to pull a wage until then and I can allow the funds to build back up now. Me and the company will be just fine.
