If the club were to choose not to go through a REQUIRED legal process, they risk getting clobbered.
And given that we know nothing about the cases which the club is dealing with for each of the three, it's fairly pointless speculating about any of it. are having to deal with
I was just presuming it might almost be part of a "standard" statement as part of a bought in HR package type thing.
And if they didn't say anything about him returning, that would just lead to more (different) speculation.
How about Patsy Kensit and David Bowie as a management team. Not sure what either of them know about football, but david Bowie coming from Beckenham might have some interesting insights in to the Withdean years and/or the palace rivalry.
Would it not be just standard fare. They could hardly say "but we don't expect him to because he is Gus's mate and we won't know where we stand until that situation is sorted....."
And I am in no way seeking to speculate in saying this.
Well, there's a thing. Well, go to the foot of our stairs, and various other expressions of mock amazement.
And I would imagine there are absolutely no inferences that can be drawn from this as to either of the other suspensions.... but it won't stop people trying.
