Did anyone record it or get a transcript for the interesting questions?

Will be on iplayer soon.

 

[blockhseagull]

Do they?

Assume so, only in the prem then ?

 

[Icy Gull]

So did Gus throw his toys out of the pram after being refused permission to leave?

With regard to the GP situation, presumably no one asked if he has submitted a claim against the club for unfair dismissal or such like since he lost the appeal under the clubs internal procedures. Would imagine that it would be dead in the water unless he denies the telephone call prior to the Palace game!!!

How? If the club have fired him for gross misconduct on the basis he asked to go in the summer (but would be fine with leaving the next day) they would lose. Gus can admit to that phone call and he'd still win his claim if that is the basis for "gross misconduct". Asking to go is not misconduct, let alone gross misconduct. The phone call itself means nothing. It is the untold story. The things that happened afterwards that Tony refused to go into that would be important.

TB said this was the trigger for what happened afterwards which he couldn't comment on , sounds like Gus doesn't have a cat in hells chance in taking it further in terms of winning any compo.

Paul Barber wants a home boxing day game next year!

Dont we all.....but surely that depends on whether Park and Ride, and the trains will be running . It was the reason last seasons Boxing Day match was cancelled (moved).....so nothing can change until trains and buses run again on Boxing Day !

I hope the Club get a chance to screw money out of Poyet for his breach of contract.

Oh well, where are all the Poyer lickers now then? Ha ha - told you what I thought he was like, and I was right!

 

[Worthai Seagull]

My only concern was Bloom's comment about only being hopeful of signing a couple of players before the window closes as I'd say we need 3-4 if we want to make the play-offs.

Two is better than none....and if your knowledge of football, and players is so great..did you put in a CV to the club when we were looking for Gus's replacement ? They will be devastated that you slipped through the net .

I think the club have already approached the train and bus companies with regard to providing an adequate service provision on a Boxing Day which will cost the club a fortune.

Yes it all finished badly and he was shown in his true colours, but it still cannot erase what he achieved at the club.

If the unions have any say in it there wont be any because it upsets what their members agreed to when they joined the company. Until recent years there was always trains on Boxing Day and I can also remember there being a few on Christmas Day in my young days.

I did but am still waiting for a reply from the club.

Maybe only at the very, very top of the Prem

 

[Superphil]

Umbro...

Maybe Joma, Puma, Macron, Kappa?

 

[daveyboy1973]

Time will tell poyet took us as far as he could!!!!!!

[BensGrandad]

I am not quite that old but would be interested if somebody knew (a) when they stopped running on Boxing Day (b) when they last run on Christmas Day. There must be a train nerd on here who knows the answers.

I googled it and came up with Daily Mail headline from 2008 saying that trains were set to run 365 days a year for the first time since the 60s but obviously it didnt happen.

 

[Hillian1]

I don't suppose the question about re-writing the club Charter to suit it's new ticketing policy came up did it?
