The Football News Thread 2014/15 - Everything not Wolves News Related

So what are labor relations normally like in the UK? The idea over here is that you're allowed to say stuff like that because it's related to workplace welfare.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It has nothing to do with workplace at all. The bloke posts on an internet forum. He isn't doing it as a job of work at all.

Not that I am saying it is right. He has been massively leant on, and I think he should have said, see me in court, so that the Oystons get exposed for the people that they are, but if you haven't got deep pockets that is one hell of a risk to take.

 

[Alan]

Well what I mean is that you're allowed here to comment on your workplace. Something about people being a union unto themselves.

It's really obtuse and believe me, you don't want to wade through all the policy. It's like academia on steroids.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I understand. The point is that the Blackpool forum isn't his workplace, and the poster has no connection from a work point of view with Blackpool FC, so workplace relations is une herringue rouge.

 

[Alan]

Ah I see.

Doesn't the customer have a right to complain about a product under the trade descriptions act?

Darlington FC are away to Salford City today and have taken almost 1000 fans. That is a fantastic effort for a team at the 8th tier if the Football Pyramid.
Salford and Northwich Victoria are joint top of the Evo-Stik First Division North. Darlo are 3rd, 3 points back but with 5 games in hand

It is very pleasing to hear that Tommy Smith, the Huddersfield defender is now in a stable condition in hospital following his sickening collision with his own goalkeeper. I wish him well and hope he makes a full recovery.

It’s the Premier League, it’s the not-fucking-about league and we’ve been fucking about too much.

"Steve Bruce is desperately trying to strengthen his Hull City squad ahead of tonight's transfer deadline as he looks to close in on his top two transfer targets - Dame N'Doye from Lokomotiv Moscow and a loan move for Lennon who is set to leave White Hart Lane."

I thought that a number a well known football pundits were congratulating Hull City for their excellent business in the last window?

Another red card against Bournemouth rescinded:icon_Red-Card:.

Doesn't change the fact that they won both games that they might not have if the cards had not been issued in the first place

FIFA Top job.

Greg Dyke said last week he was supporting Prince Ali.

West Ham could face FA Cup expulsion if Fifa finds the club breached rules over the selection of striker Diafra Sakho.
Sakho, 25, withdrew from Senegal's Africa Cup of Nations squad with a back injury but scored 18 days later in West Ham's 1-0 FA Cup win at Bristol City.
Fifa rules state a player cannot appear for his club if he is meant to be on international duty.
World football's governing body has begun an inquiry but the Hammers "vigorously" deny any wrongdoing.
If West Ham are found guilty, Fifa could order the Football Association to overturn their victory over the League One side.
Fifa is investigating a "potential violation" of its regulations by both the club and striker Diafra Sakho over his selection - but has declined to give a timescale on proceedings.
The Hammers are set to visit Premier League rivals West Brom in the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday, 14 February.
The Football Association is refusing to comment but is believed to be aware of Fifa's investigation.

Redknapp gone!

What a pathetically transparent move by him.

Saido Berahino:

“If I can keep them in the Premier League and score as many goals as I can, I’m pretty sure the fans wouldn’t mind me pushing on and going on to bigger things.”

He doesn't do himself any favours does he? I wouldn't be happy with such comments if I supported W**t B**m.

 

[Jolemai]

He obviously doesn't understand the average football fan or is extremely naive.
