Ken Starr had Bill Clinton on the witness stand saying "I never slept with that woman Monica Lewinsky". This was held to be a lie, and the basis of the impeachment. His lawyers argued, successfully, that what he'd actually said was "I never slept with that woman. Monica Lewinsky". The two sentences were non-sequiturs. They went on to argue, again successfully, that 1) if you tell someone the truth, knowing full well that this will mislead them, this is not a lie; 2) if you tell someone the truth, leaving out crucial information which would change their understanding of what you are saying, this is not a lie; and 3) that if you give a truthful answer to a different question to the one you have been asked, this is not a lie. Hence, "I have not insulted you, fat loser." is probably actionable, but "I have not insulted you. Fat loser." is legally water-tight.

McCallum, would be okay with that signing but if not then it's nothing to get upset about. There are a lot more pressing needs in our squad.

We need a more reliable keeper, better cover at right back, more depth in midfield and another striker.

Throw in more depth on the wing as the aussie lad is a good signing for the future but you'd like a bit more cover.

The starting 11 Oliver? Yeah, I know the person who it actually comes from and no I'm not going to out them on a public forum.

Why do you think my first name upsets me? Would I give a rats if Dave Collins has gold you it? If you want you can use my full name, it's Matthew David O'Dea.

Also have you given the crowdfund money to MMM for the tickets fund yet?

Thats a bite

I’ve heard Leicester and Leeds have both sent O’hare contract offers of which are on ludicrous wages that we should never match, we’re talking life changing money similar to maybe even more than Burnley offered (as Im not sure how much Burnley offered him)
Click to expand...

Leicester wage bill was 60 million Leeds and Southampton 40 million, thats where the parachute payments went. I dare say Leeds will have room to play with when a few of there players leave but doubt he will be the best played player if he goes there.

And they wont have to worry about losses due to transfer fee so they see that as a major bonus

Considering most of that post is nonsense. Yes it is.

Clinton’s defence was around the definition of sexual relations, nothing to do with sentence construction.

Finding out peoples first names on this is weird. That's why I came straight in as Tom, if you meet me I'll still be Tom and its not weird. Whereas if I came in as grannyblaster69 and then you met me and I'm like hi I'm Tom aka grannyblaster69, its weird.

The Internet in 2011 was a different place IMO. You were a bit weird if you used your real name outside of Facebook.

Doesn’t matter anyway, there’s enough obsessive weirdos that eventually everyone gets doxxed on here.

Swear everyone on Twitter used their real names until 2020, then Covid hit and now it’s full of people called @equkijvirlhtir with anime pfp’s saying the dumbest shit because they can’t be identified.

I think the actual rumour is that he has declined the terms offered rather than he is not interested in staying longer ….

Because he’s only got a year left so if he refuses then probably time to sell? And because SBT memes aren’t real life?

He clearly has a market value regardless of whether or not you rate him.

I'm not a huge fan but others are, most notably Oggy who appears president of his fan club ….

Said a few weeks back Kasey could be leaving this summer

As ive said before he and his agent have a vastly inflated view of how good he thinks he is, and how good he actually is

So could be legs to it

What sort of fee could we expect this summer? £1million-£2 if really lucky?

Said on the face of it in about March time I think it was, it seemed strange move to get a new agent!

I genuinely think we'd be lucky to find someone that would just take over his contract.
