I’ve edited my previous post having found the info I was after. What you’re describing doesn’t sound to be within the ‘advisory services’ remit…

I thought players could have an agent from 16 but only with parental consent. Edited, found the below (in the EFL youth development parents and carers handbook):

A boring draw is better than an exciting loss.

I like how you’re being accused of a lack of compassion by the same person who thinks Newcastle’s owners should only be judged on their running of the club.

India seem scared to declare.

Who decided on the day would be disrespectful but 24 hours later is fine??

They managed to take him off the club website staff list pdq

The issue isn’t who is covering the job ‘til an appointment is made. The issue is not updating Companies House that Waggott has left.

6 ducks 🤦‍♂️

They probably just forgot to press submit.

Test cricket isn’t what it used to be.

One year seems a bit stingy.

If the club had wanted to they could have matched the wages Derby offered and the bid Oxford made. They didn’t want to.

‘Blackburn is quite far from where I live’ Bristol is quite far from everywhere - didn’t stop him spending multiple seasons there. It’s almost like ‘closer to home’ is a convenient excuse… (unless you’re Robbie Savage 😁😁).

There are FIFA ones but he’s too old for those.

‘… will not get much compensation’ - surely if he moves abroad we’d get no compensation.

The contract we’ve offered (if indeed we have) is taken into account when deciding the compensation amount. I guess most of us think we’ve either done as you say = lower compensation or failed to offer one at all = no compensation. It would be lovely just to have one competent person in the club’s senior management.

I think 30th June is the latest a loan can run ‘til but most run to the end of May.

I’d go with 3 but wouldn’t be surprised by 4. I’d go with 3 (I think they’re a text book example of the sunk cost fallacy) but wouldn’t be at all surprised by 4.

In 2013- 2014… £6.6 million payments were made to achieve player disposals £6.2 million provision was made for onerous player contracts £3.2 million impairment of player registration values was made. That’s £16 million of losses ‘just like that’.

I noticed that affidavit and documents being filed but can’t come up with a reason for this I’d be confident about (your suggestion re the first not being accepted doesn’t seem implausible though). In terms of Companies House, this only ever shows when the money is turned into equity (shares) so I wouldn’t necessarily expect this to have happened yet. Clearly there’s nothing to stop the club confirming/denying the LT article from last week which stated the club had received these funds. As we know though, communication is not the club’s strongest point… (Did Elliott check with the club before publishing?? Who knows? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️)
