Hi taio, take a look at the JJ Watt thread and the link to when JJ was on the Neville "Stick to Football" (or whatever it's called) podcast. JJ mentions Green Bay and makes comparison with Burnley. Thanks for your free of charge research :D Did his comparison extend to the possibility of using the ...

Seems a shame to leave without an answer though. How much would this particular piece of research cost? We could potentially crowd-fund it.

I would have to research whether his research fees are reasonable so would have to charge him

Sorry, I really don't see how the two situations are remotely similar.

I agree. Find the comparison with Green Bay Packers strange especially given the ownership model.

Do not know how often you want me to say it; that’s your choice.

I don't want you to say it anymore...certainly not free of charge

Not sure what is lots of laughs about it, but that is fine. You don’t think information has value, that is fine too.

If you don't want to back up your claims with evidence, that is fine. I'll therefore choose to take them with a pinch of salt.

Where have I suggested no one else has a Masters. Do you work for free?
This is a chat room, if you want my professional services why should I do my job for free… any more than you’d do yours?

I don't want your professional services, thanks

As I said, your choice… and yes I have made no secret of my dyslexia. So you’d pay someone who did a plumbers course at college but not someone who studied past Degree to masters level in their field, ok. No, I wouldn't pay someone on here to back up their assertions. I couldn't give a toss that yo...

As you wish. Would you expect a Plummer(you did not know) to fit you bathroom for free on a day off… As I say it should be easy enough to track down, if you can be arsed. If you mean a plumber then no. But somewhat different to say the least. I can't be arsed, in the same you can't you be arsed, so...

imagine paying 25 quid to go to the cinema and leaving half way through because the film isn't that great

That would be understandable too.

Sorry cannot remember where I saw it, probably Twitter. While I am not prepared to do the leg work (as this is a discussion board)… as a master researcher (not a brag, MRES qualified) that type of work comes at a price (as a standard part of my working week) but I cannot imagine it is that difficul...

Except it has been mentioned as a model by either JJ or AP on more than one occasion.

Sorry, I hadn't realised that they've indicated our club could follow the Green Bay Packers ownership model. Please can you provide a link to what was said because I'd be interested reading it?

taio

Who knows, would not surprise me at all if JJ sees it as a long term option… has Alan Pace (or anyone else) suggested they want to do anything but draw (very good) wages for doing a very good job? It would surprise me a lot. Or has there been any suggestions anywhere that this could be considered? ...

taio

I wonder if Pace would be interested in getting over 500,000 community shareholders of the club and that any future profits are exclusively reinvested into the club.

taio

Relegation is only as big a risk as the Green Bay franchise being sold elsewhere in the 70’s. Do they take massive amounts of profit out of the club? I suspect they are playing the long game, profits waiting until the ‘project’ is self sufficient. Alan Pave is not himself is not obscenely wealthy (...

I disagree with this. VK isn't the same manager from 12 months ago. The pressure on him and the team will not be the same either. The main reason to pot VK would be the reasons talked about. He's now got a track record of extreme disloyalty to the players that got him promoted. Who is going to want...

taio

Before the season started I was hoping for 17th, recognising the toughness of this league. Unfortunately we're probably going to fall short but not a surprise really.

Foolish to knock a proven Prem player.

Particularly when he could be key to their survival at our expense

Can be a handful. Scored 12 PL goals this season. Could have done with a striker who can score that many.

What exactly ‘is’ a plastic fan?

Someone whose support varies significantly according to the club's succes or failure.

:roll: It all boils down to intent even though intent doesn't have to be the deciding factor. we would be complaining if onana had gone & somebody else went in & saved the penalty the same if he would have saved the penalty. it's not something I'd be complaining about a spot kick was rightly awarde...

Anyone else seen the videos doing the rounds on X and Tik Tock of the Burnley fan doing an airplane impression and then moving his hand across his neck?

Embarrassing for our club, more so that he’s a grown man!!

No

It’s offside because of VAR. If VAR isn’t there the on field decision is onside and no one says ‘but his toe was offside’, everyone sees the replay and says ‘level’.

As soon as I saw the replay I thought offside straightaway although admittedly it was tighter than I thought.

taio

Come on Coventry. United don't have any heart

taio

Looked offside to me. If he was then it's an example of VAR working for a change.

taio

Offside I reckon

The PL has a massive problem if the panel reduces Forest's points deduction and that's what saves them and sends another club down.

Hilarious. United are an absolute shambles of a team. We should be going to OT to turn them over next weekend.

Wide open at the back. Said it earlier today - we can get something next week if we perform. They have many injuries and play again before we play them.

Cheers taio. Does anybody know whether one person can swap for friends and family or does each one have to attend in person ? Going to be logistically difficult for us if everybody needs to do it individually. Not sure. But would suggest you have them recorded on the friends and family list on the ...

If you think we've been hard done to, how would you feel if you were an Everton or Forest supporter after having points deducted?

That they got off lightly

Just saw this on sky sports news. Celebrating like we saw at the back end of last season. Do you take the view of we haven't had much to celebrate so he's taking a rare opportunity to enjoy it or given the season we've just endured, he should have applauded the fans briefly and walked off?

Probably not. My point above is more that when players sign contracts they commit to the club for a period. If we wanted to not sign Tresor now for example, we couldn’t just decide ourselves not to bother with a We’ll no doubt have had players all season that are less than happy with the situation ...

Fancy us getting something at Old Trafford. United play today and Wednesday before Saturday, and they are pretty shite.

Forest are only team we could possibly catch.
Last game against them will be meaningless. How many points do we think we can get away to united home to Newcastle away to spurs. Very few in my opinion.

Weak-minded

I've reported him to the Research Ethics Board at the University of South Australia.

Yes, I do have other things to do but the bloke is using this forum in an unethical manner.

Why?

Of course they are in it to make money.

England's No 1, Mr Pickford, made an epic fail last night of Muric proportions, yet for some reason it has hardly had a mention, certainly not on this thread. Yet another reminder that an error does not define a keeper, because all keepers make them. Surely there is a simple explanation. This threa...

Isn’t Ramsey going to miss almost the entirety of next season (assumption, if it’s an ACL)? Certainly up to Christmas at minimum I’d think? I really hope we keep Brownhill for a year - Cullen, Berge, Brownhill wins us promotion for sure I think. The vital signing is a striker though. We simply must...

Can see where you're coming from. It hasn't been an easy watch. But I would suggest giving it a sense of perspective and not over-thinking it. After all, we all have choices.

Muric makes one mistake and he's docked almost the same amount of points as Everton, to those given Muric 3 or 4 FFS give your heads the biggest wobble ever....

Then I don't get why you're claiming he doesn't know him well, if he's basically saying everything that you think too!

I'm saying it because if you know him well you don't say this:

Only Jay will know what he said and what he meant

It's not difficult

You disagreed with Tony's point about Jay, so what do you really think?

Was Jay being racist or not? Tony stated he didn't think he was.

Nope.

I don't think anyone who thinks they know him well would say this:

Only Jay will know what he said and what he meant
