    Waghorn to hudds

    I'd hope all of it in exchange for getting him leaving us so short of strikers

    Waghorn to hudds

    Genuinely believe his spell he was done for by him getting COVID, he looked fairly sharp and trim before that but then just seemed to have lost a burst after he came back.

    Benjamin Mendy.

    The burden of proof in a rape case is very high already and the precedent (in relation to a victim's sexual history) set in the Ched Evans case makes it worse. I am not arguing that the burden is too high for the avoidance of doubt.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yes. You can vote to strike and not actually take part in the strike and conversely strike even if you voted not to or didn't vote at all as long as you are a member of the union. The ballot exists only to show to the employer that a vote has taken place and a majority of those voting voted in...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I don't believe in forced votes for an election as it doesn't allow me a democratic right not to vote for any of the parade of arseholes on the ballot paper.

    Transfer Rumour Outgoings?

    Yes but that doesn't necessarily mean that the same players are suddenly subject to an offer to leave

    Josh Eccles New Contract

    We don't know the structure of his contract and whether the 4 years have conditions attached

    Transfer Rumour Outgoings?

    I don't think the calling out of a player last week automatically means that player is the one who is leaving. The one who is leaving is whoever has elicited interest from another club.

    Transfer Rumour Outgoings?

    I think it's most likely Kelly - Robins was talking about Eccles being free to going back inside

    Transfer Rumour Outgoings?

    Because there is no cover for Waghorn either and Kelly is just not up to it any more.

    Transfer Rumour Outgoings?

    Would rather it is Waghorn over Walker tbh, the abuse the latter gets despite barely playing is ridiculous.

    It isn't wrong really though is it? It might be if / when voter ID is brought in which creates an unnecessary restriction but currently the opportunity is there to vote by post or by visiting a polling station. People exercise their democratic right to vote or not to vote.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I disagree. The rules governing strike ballots are wrong not the ones governing parliamentary / local elections.

    New shares issued.

    The preference shares in Otium have always been there, they're the same value. It's not clear whether some of those shares are retained by SISU or whether they've all been transferred to DK.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Unsurprising as Tories are elected by older people living in rural / semi rural areas who tend to turn out more. The key point is though, even if the turnout in a General Election was sub <50% the MP would be elected.

    Doug King Takeover

    The control bit is key - under SISU it was strictly the club having to find the money for a prospective signing by offloading others which probably meant we missed out on signings we could technically afford. Hopefully DK is willing to dip his hand in his pocket to enable signings to be made so...

    Premier League thread

    I think Chelsea have made some odd signings in recent times, Sterling for example

    New shares issued.

    I think it's £65m of which £7.2m are ordinary shares, the rest being A and B preference shares
