I think the lesson to be learned from this is: if you fall out with your former employer and you had previously used a work phone/computer to send texts/e-mails that would put you in a compromising position, throw the bloody thing in the nearest large body of water.

Twenty million! :ffsparr: Somebody needs to explain the legal concept of causation to Vincent Tan. Not me though, he dresses like a bond villain and I hate sharks.

For my sins, I'm an employment lawyer, and there's nothing I know of which would prevent an employer inserting a clause like that into a contract. I understand that a number of Premier League clubs are now attempting to do so, with varying degrees of success. However, a contract is an...

It's not always possible to get the smartcard to the person going in your place, and then get it back before the next match. Especially when we're at home on a Saturday and a Tuesday.

Yeah, really obscure that Gina Rinehart. Never in the press. Stays out of politics http://www.theguardian.com/business/gina-rinehart :rolleyes:

Football fans in general are constantly mugged to pay the ever-increasing wages of mediocre players, and the dodgy payments that their agents demand. I don't see how the Albion has any choice other than to charge the prices it does when it's spending 90% of turnover on wages - the business is...

I don't think there's a civil claim in it (unfortunately). The rule they've been found guilty of breaching is essentially an obligation of good faith. It would be next to impossible for Cardiff to prove that this rule breach cost them their Premier League place - they finished 6 points below...

This is the blog by the bloke who obtained the figures: http://aisforarsenal.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/arsenals-actual-average-attendance-last.html He went through the Metropolitan Police, by way of a Freedom of Information request. Anyone sufficiently bothered about the actual attendances at the...

Should these 'social media marketing' types not have a series of dummy e-mail addresses and IP proxies so as to better disguise their identities? It's as if they're as clueless as the Shadow Business Secretary...

It has to be. If it was a real person they would have mentioned the insanely high price in the OP.

Absolutely. The players agreed the bonus, to suggest that they are somehow entitled to more on the basis that they finished 11th is a bit ridiculous. It's not as if their basic salaries are peanuts!

I find this really disgusting, but then almost everything about Bernie Ecclestone disgusts me. Here's a man who dodges tax on an industrial scale, yet has the nerve to demand that Governments stump up the cash for his white elephant race tracks. No wonder he donated money to Tony Blair: the...

This post does not reflect well on you. Are you actually engaging in one-upsmanship over whose dad is in a worse predicament?

No Raining Blood, no point in this list.

Good on them. This Government has treated the public sector with contempt, made the lives of thousands of workers utterly intolerable, and sought to privatise everything it can. I'd be on strike in their position!

Section 2(1) of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 states 'A person cannot by reference to any contract term or to a notice given to persons generally or to particular persons exclude or restrict his liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence'. So, any waiver that says 'we...

I don't have contempt for their fans - I mean that the Spurs board have contempt for them.

Utter, utter contempt for their fans if they go outside of London. Wembley is the obvious option, as it's only about 12 miles away and has no club tenant. The Olympic Stadium, if open in time, could clearly use the extra income to avoid being such a burden on the public purse, and is even nearer...
