    And about my question earlier:
    Are we insured against players getting injured?

    if so then we won’t be paying Kalas, Palmer or Williams’s wages right now.

    I dont know how the insurance works [ fully] but when a player has to stop playing, end of .. the "total amount of " benefit" [insurance ] can go on 1 player ???


    if players did not insure themselves they got nothing, The clubs got the value of the player.These days the agents make sure player is insured by the club and is included in their.contract.Well one good thing agents do

    "Steve Cooper and Nathan Jones have worked wonders in the Championship on limited budgets this year, bringing in mostly free transfers and with careful use of the loan market. The comparisons are stark."
    Maybe a couple better managers than what we've got!!

    Well most big businesses insure themselves so that when staff are off sick they can be temporarily replaced whilst still paying the sick employees their sick pay.

    Depends on the cover put in place and the excess. This is similar to normal mortals where we pay first £x of a claim they tend to be weeks or months.
    Got this from my wife, who is a director of an insurance company. Shame Banksy is not on here as his best mate and my wife’s friend covers sporting people.

    Think the arguments annoyed him so he went off to Twitter and things like that instead. He enjoyed winding up the non Brexit people.

    I wondered if it was anything to do with a protracted spat with Sparkey.
    I remember him becoming more frustrated with each reply.

    If it was, he brought it on himself. I was having tongue in cheek chats over here with a load of posters. JGF2 (as he was then) about investments etc, Red Robin, ROD, Angelic, R&W, Robin Reliant, smh, Tom, yourself and even young Rob (where is he now?) amongst others.

    He took exception to me "bragging" about my new X5. FFS guys, it was all a piss take and wind up banter but he wouldn't let it go. He became abusive and threw his toys out of the pram. I've got no problem with any member of this forum (except Tree lard <laugh>), but at the time he lost it completely and slung his hook.

    I've no idea at all if it was because of that spat, but if it was, I do regret winding him up to the point where he couldn't handle it. Incidentally, I thought he was given a very fair crack of the whip by wiz at the time regarding his abusive language and fake PM claims.

    Jones struggled big time at Stoke and went back to Luton-sometimes your face don't fit.

    Think it was more he had enough on here, like Chris Gashead stopped posting. Shiny comes back now and then but very infrequent now.
    Banksy is now a grandfather, Chris is now a new father so their lives are preoccupied with family now. Shiny can be found active on Twitter.(very funny on there as well)
