No Money

[Pinchy]

I doubt there’s anything in the contracts or the clause would have been referred to in the pre action papers and it would be fairly cut and dried.

My fear is that they are relying on precedent (but I don’t recall any cases being quoted) or simply ‘equity’. It’s well beyond my basic legal understanding though. If it’s at the high court and I’ve got time, I may see if I can go and watch it (I’m not even sure if you can watch civil cases, the only time I’ve had to give evidence was settled out of court just before the case started)

You can watch civil cases.

 

[BushBlade]

You can watch civil cases.

So what’s your take on all this?

 

[Pinchy]

So what’s your take on all this?

Despondency really. I hope Kev prevails on a ‘better the devil you know’ basis. But my overwhelming wish is: at a time when we are within touching distance of the Premier League would it be too naive to think they could forge an interim working relationship until May and let Tufty loose with some relatively serious spending power? That after all was the plan, but Prince will say he had to spend far more than was ever contemplated to get us out of League One.

It’s nothing new for business partners to fall out but this came so early in the piece that you have to wonder if there was ever truly consensus ad idem in the first place. Kev’s made a bad choice, not for the first time, hasn’t he?

I await your contemporaneous court reports with interest (you can make notes now without being in contempt). There will be revelations I’m sure. We only had the tip of the iceberg at the interlocutory application for injunctive relief.

I would like to see the pleadings before making any speculative predictions as to outcome. Even then, don’t rely on me. I haven’t had civil instructions in the last thirty years!

'Civil instructions'

You've been told to **** off a few times though

It’s desperately sad that our joint owners don’t have the brains to see what they’re doing to OUR club at a time when we have an opportunity to progress with one of the best managers in football.

There’s no bigger Blade etc etc.

I’d suggest with their respective wealth they do ‘have brains’ but aren’t necessarily engaging them

 

[Isar]

4/10 for content, but will get bites. Solid 4 pager.

10 and counting.

 

[Tom Bott]

I still can`t get my head around how KM allowed himself to be boxed into that particular corner.

Maybe he was pissed off at having to chuck millions in every year, only to hear the fans berate him for not having enough ambition.

Look at how the 'pork' are now treating The No-Chancer.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Agents and their clients hold no power whatsoever. A contract is a contract is a contract. It’s that straightforward.

As can be seen in the case of McCabe v Prince A.

But if my partner wants all the club there's nothing I can do.

 

[Laney Blade]

Didn't Kitson say on punditry the other day that Wilder's been promised a barrel of money?

He said he knew one of owner's & thinks would try to help if CW says needs 1 or 2 players in JTW.

 

[Laney Blade]

Because if Billy gets crocked (or dropped) we haven't a striker capable of scoring a goal.

In Star says Leon is having intensive treatment to hopefully be fit by Friday. He was nearly fit apparently but buggered it up by playing at Brentford. But he offered himself to help his team mates..

 

[Tom Bott]

this has come from a source that is very close to the manager

There is no money for Leon's treatment ?

 

[Pinchy]

'Civil instructions'

Oh more than a few. My regular clients, by contrast, regard me as near royalty. They are often heard to say “Why have I got that Count again?” It’s very flattering.

 

[Tezza1889]

It’s an interesting thread, but we can only hope that the funds promised to the manager are solid and agreed, I’d think this would be the case and from wilders point of view I’m sure he would have something signed off with the board.

The brooks money will be running the club, hence the loan, and if I live in hope whatever unused money from August would be carried over into January..

Whatever the outcome if I was the prince or McCabe I’d have my arm around wilder and be telling him that when it’s all over and we’re straight I’ll be backing him as far as I could as soon as I could, he’s the next manager to get us promoted to the premier league, we’ve just got to make sure that after the stupidity in the boardroom is done he’s still here..

Of all the things that have conspired against us to relegate us, the play off failures, the gems given away, the star players incarcerated, the West Ham debacle, a potential chairman who changed sex (hilarious wasn’t it), and a director on the run from Interpol, this alone may be the icing on the cake...

the co owners fight just as we get it right, it could only happen to us, it does only happen to us.. doesn’t it?

 

[Houston_Blade]

Apart from the 6 million reported by the Star then.

3. Sheffield United 6million - The Blades have already been linked with a couple of loan moves - most noticeably Jermain Defoe

Read more at: https://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/foo...-according-to-football-manager-2019-1-9486886

So the 'facts' as we know them are somewhere between nothing and 6 million.

Are you sure your informant was not talking about the Pork ?

I don't often criticise The Star as it's one of the only sources of information for me at times (apart from the bollocks on the rumour thread), however this is truly a terrible article. Why not run one next week about the population and urban development of Sheffield based on a game that the writer had on Sim City recently? Maybe an article about war based on Civilisation?

FFS.

 

[HodgysBrokenThumb]

Unfortunately, building and retaining trust is one of the most difficult human challenges. See the current Conservative Party for further details. Having 'brains' is one thing; knowing how best to deal with other people is much more difficult. I fear the outcomes both at SUFC and Westminster at the moment.

 

[finlaytheblade]

He is either friends or neighbour to one of McCabe's sons,so could know something

News : Here's all we know abbot the latest twitter rumour.

 

[South Bucks]

So in the case earlier this year BRP allegedly "sold" off 80% of his shares to BRP's mate (BRPM) to avoid having to buy the assets with the counter bid.. The bit I don't understand is why didn't KM then instead offer to buy BRPM's shares knowing if BRPM invoked the counter clause to buy out KM for the same amount BRPM would then have more than the threshold which triggers having to buy the assets.

Because BRPM is another company for this purpose with BRP as a chairman, I think?

A deliberate move where BRP still has control over the shares and can decide what happens to them, this in itself, (if correct) shouldn’t be allowed, and probably won’t hold any water in court..

Note ~ it’s not just captain fishy over the road with “Front” companies by the look of it, we may have this kind of embarrassment on the horizon if BRP wins... might be the way the world turns these days, being skint I wouldn’t know.

However I have heard though (from a mate in the pub ) that KMC thinks he’s “Got him” so although it’s gonna possibly derail a season of promise I’ve got the popcorn out for when the court case starts.. may as well play while the ship goes down hadn’t we..

 

[EddieColquhoun]

Availiable in the JTW this has come from a source that is very close to the manager.
With the two men still who run the show still at war this is no surprise.

Here's the manager saying there will be "definite additions" and "2 or 3 through the door":

its not no money
it loan only money, Wilders said as much
the quality of player we need is only available on our budget on loan

the cost of some loans with wages is the cost of a lower league striker
Wilder wants better

Fulham only got a loan striker in from Newcasrle , worked fine for them was the last piece in the jigsaw
Thats all we need

Wages alone will be substantial
If we only loan someone like Loftus Cheek , thats like him , Ill be happy

Agree, but we'll be getting no-one if Loftus-Cheek is the calibre we're aiming at!

You have to imagine though, these mid table teams, Leicester, Watford, Bournemouth, Brighton have a few players on the fringes that would benefit from being around sharp end of the Championship.
