    I think you have to choose it at the start or it's unavailable.
    Would be a bit **** for supposedly anonymous votes otherwise.

    Those voting for the club to breach it's contract with the coach should definitely feel ashamed.

    Wow!

    Really?

    Shame?

    I've heard it all now.

    I've not given up calling for heads to roll through shame, but because the idiot who appoints the next one will get it wrong again...probably worse.

    Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose.

    Those voting for the club to continue with the manager who’s taking them into a relegation battle should definitely feel ashamed

    It's a matter of principle for me. Contracts should be honoured.

    It wasn't me who first suggested that shame was appropriate. I just picked a side

    Football isn’t like that though. People sign contracts and then leave or are sacked all the time. Ultimately results dictate outcome.

    What it is like and what it should be like may be different things though. It's a sport and winning by dishonourable conduct is no better than losing in my book

    It’s not dishonourable to sack someone who isn’t doing a good job and failing to meet targets though. Also not dishonourable when players want to break their contracts and move on elsewhere to play in better teams or earn more money.

    Breach of contract gives ride to legal remedies. Extremely rarely, an order of specific performance, usually damages suffice.

    Shame is not seen as a remedy or appropriate response for the breach, let alone calling for a breach...even in marriage contracts.

    Tried to use mod powers and I don't think you can. I guess if the option to not show them is selected, then nothing is stored. Could delete and replace?

    Nah, be the bigger mens and let them continue their development

    Although the odds of them getting Ajayi, Olusesi or Irow on loan next season are a little iffy...
