Well as just a name on a message board to me, Proph, I don't know you enough to be able to say whether that's a nice bit of insight or utter bullshit, but from everything previously I'd seen and heard of Mackay he seemed to come across as a hard-working, reasonably grounded (for someone involved...

I doubt they'll laugh - I'd imagine they'll just be minorly irritated at you for wasting their time when they get tax suggestions from someone who doesn't appear to understand the difference between humans and corporations.

But it's not his choice - he's not a free agent. It's up to the club, which means transfer fee is more likely to be the deciding factor than anything that affects the player but makes no difference to the selling club. What do Dundee United care how much he's going to get paid or how likely we...

Of course he'll have "seen it coming". He'd know full well he wouldn't be able to own shares in one club while managing another, and there's no reason at all he'd have to sell them at a discount to the current owners - he can sell them to whoever he likes for however much someone will pay him...

You think the club got through the whole of last season without spending any money? No wages, nothing? And why do you think anyone's going to "invest" £20m? Even if Malky gets £20m to spend over the course of the season (which there's no reason to believe unless you think every rumour in a...

Man you're gullible, Northolt :D.

Yeah! Why, oh why, can't we be sponsored by someone with a real affinity for the local club - maybe an internet betting firm!

Is it true, QPR stands for Quiche Rabbit Papandreou? If so put up a link please. This is the "ask random, meaningless questions about each other's clubs" thread, right?

If only there were already a Malky Mackay thread for this to be discussed on.

I don't know why you think I don't know all this - the only part I disagreed with you on is that compensation figures are calculated by multiplying salary by no. of years left.

Exactly - THAT is how the price is worked out. Not by multiplying his salary by the number of years on his contract. This post (which I completely agree with) is completely different to your previous post, which I disagreed with. Edit: Oh, and there's no way anyone would pay hundreds of...

I thought the issue with paying off the debt was more that they are having people look into how much there actually is to pay off, rather than just taking Hammam's word for it? They don't want to pay off the £24m or whatever figure Hammam says he's owed - they want someone impartial to go...

I'm baffled how these Watford fans know what every club in the league's budget was, to know that there was only team who spent less than them?

It may seem simple calculated like that, but that's not how contract buy-outs work, and never has been.

Impossible for US to guess. People who have interviewed them all should have a much better idea. On the issue of a fee, frankly any compensation fee <£500k would not buy you much else in Championship football, so the difference between a free manager or one that cost a few hundred thousand...
