Aye. I'm sure he's very good, but he's not irreplaceable. The fact that we're currently the biggest club he's worked at tells you that all the clubs bigger than us have someone they're perfectly happy with in his role. That patter about his laptop makes him sound like a pervert anyway.

According to Lukey boy they'll have to pay £10m compensation and he has a 12 month gardening leave clause. They can shorten that but it'll cost them. Lovely stuff.

I don't know how easy it will be to get on with Ten Hag. The bloke has an insane ego and clearly likes being the big lad. Suspect it will be very different to working with Howe.

Aye, the "as long as compensation is agreed" part of Hope's tweet is by no means guaranteed, if we do what we should and demand big numbers.

Aye I've got no problem with him leaving to go there, but I hope he fully shits the bed. I don't see how he doesn't have a period of gardening leave that extends at least to the end of the summer window either, otherwise Man United will be signing half of the targets he's identified for us.

Honestly, I wouldn't have any hard feelings if he left. Whether we like it or not, they are a massive global brand, and it would be career progression for him. I'd just like to see us really make Man United pay for the inconvenience.

We should also probably just go and try to poach whoever Brighton replaced him with.

I really want to see us completely take the piss if he's gonna leave. Make them pay through the nose and stick him on a year of garden leave. It's what they tried to do to us with Lingard, and what they would absolutely do if the shoe was on the other foot in this situation. We know that this lot are working with other clubs to stunt our progress, so we should play the hardest game of hardball possible in return.

Stewart is back presenting the Daily Show to lampoon the current situation.

Feels like that one has been pre-written to press the button on as soon as the Ineos deal got the green light tbh. I'm not sure anything has actually changed.

Ah that's a shame. He was a walking stereotype, but because he was partly responsible for the invention of the stereotype. He's been on the radio up until quite recently so I assume this was very unexpected.

Just in case the question ever comes up.

I have no descendants. This forum is my legacy.

I bring Toyah and this is your offering. Honestly.

Wait til I start eating more veg. You'll see temperatures start to moderate in no time. It all starts with next week's shop.

Wtf is Ofcom playing at BTW. Rishi Sunak given an hour to present a TV show in the week of two by-elections. This cannot be right.

The new stuff that's come to light must be pretty heinous cos the previous stuff wasn't great. So he'll be on the ballot as a Labour candidate cos it's too late to change that, but they won't be campaigning for him and he'll sit as an independent if he wins. What a mess.

It's the least he can do for that guitar.

I mean it's good but Jack Clarke's got 18.

We've heard of Mad Mick, just no one's had the heart to tell you that he died in 1987.
