I'm not at all convinced it was a sackable offence (I don't know what his contract says about not putting English football in a bad light etc), but I do think what he was doing was dodgy, and you seem to be suggesting he hadn't done anything wrong at all (apart from be rude about Roy). Barely...

I can't believe you're arguing about this. You know what barely means, right? And you're arguing that point? That wasn't even the point that was being discussed, we were discussing whether he'd done wrong or not.

That's not the case, as they could feel that it was gross misconduct, bat Sam's lawyer Easy 10 could argue that it isn't, so there could be a court case. Instead they offered him a figure (less than what he was due to be paid if he saw his contract out) and he took it. See above. Of course he...

Well they're clearly not the same, because people who are properly sacked don't get pain £1m. You arguing that he hadn't done anything wrong is a debate over semantics. To me he clearly had. Presumably there would have been a definition in his contract for gross misconduct, and this may have met...

Could you show me where it confirms he was sacked? I thought he resigned.

Not really, because he'd just have been checking with his employers if he could give some speeches - he wouldn't be telling them that he'd also be advising on how to circumvent the rules. I haven't even read what the media have spun, I've just watched the video and read the transcript. He's...

I disagree. He wasn't simply saying that it happens, he was discussing a £400k per year job where he'd go to Hong Kong and Singapore 4 times a year to help investors that wanted to buy players. They asked if third party ownership was a problem and said "It's not a problem". Well it is a ****ing...

No, he wasn't just saying that it goes on, he said 'there are ways round that', giving the impression that he was fine with it, and could help if needed, rather than 'well it does happen'. The thing is, if Sam was the right man for the job, I'd rather they kept him on, it wasn't that big of a...

That's gratitude.
