This is not a discussion on the Albion’s decisions Mr Barber so don’t get all stroppy. I am reporting facts.

However, reported on south east BBC news, that the GMB have asked American Express to suspend all dealings with BHA due to their actions

That isn’t brilliant publicity for the club!

Presumably American Express will tell the GMB to **** off and mind it’s own business.

It’s a Union, TB will deal with them as effectively as Maggie did, how we carry out our business dealings is non of their business

As far as I am aware they have no input into how the club does sponsorship deals and I doubt Amex will allow them any influence either

No harm in them asking though.

I note the GMB Union have just finished their annual conference - they've spent the last 5 days in the Brighton Centre...

If sacked employees are members of GMB then they have every right to become involved. I agree that it's not great PR for the club and I'm surprised that it has come to this. As we don't know many of the details, It's impossible to form an opinion of the rights and wrongs of the case.

FFS. This was reported on the Amex sponsorship thread last night but because ONE person ignored the below advice it had to get shifted. The same will happen on this thread, it's just a matter of when. It's not being funny or censorious - this materially affects NSC.

I'm posting this to try and pre-empt a speculation-fuelled thread, because of the very obvious interest many of us may have in this story.

As this is very likely to be an ongoing legal situation, I would politely request that it is not discussed here due to the risk of putting yourself at risk of legal action, as well as the site itself.
