Re: Match Day Thread: Bolton
But it's not just mistakes; it's a consistently awful command of the English language. There was a headline the other week about the storm 'reeking' havoc. It's embarrassing.
Re: Aaron Morley
Aaron Morley and Bolton have made a commitment for him to play at Wycombe until May. They have a break clause. I don’t think there is anything wrong with a FIFA rule that says he can’t play for multiple clubs in the same season.
Re: Reading offer Bearwood training ground to Wycombe
i really hope they survive in some form or another if just for the sake of the loyal fans and @theRoyalBiscuit whom has kept us informed and a decent poster on here. I really fear for the future though with that owner, I really don't get it though. What does he hope to gain by dragging this on and on? Surely he is devaluing the asset even further down the tubes?
Re: Aaron Morley
My sincere apologies I was obviously mistaken but the rules seem pretty clear on it. Seems ridiculous but then it is the EFL we’re talking about! 😁
Hopefully it will be irrelevant anyway because you’ll sign him and all 3 parties will be satisfied?

At last someone who understands how local newspapers work.
Re: Aaron Morley
The whole system of inter-club transfers, whereby players can only move to another club in the January or Summer transfer windows, is a load of complete nonsense, and potentially a breach of the Human Rights Act.
In any other walk of life, an employee can work for as many different employers as he wants, subject to said employers wanting to take him on.
Someone with deep pockets (not me) needs to launch a Judicial Review in the High Court against FIFA / EFL / PL, to get this declared an unlawful restraint of trade.
Re: Match Day Thread: Bolton
The problem being that as local papers have no sub-editors anymore and journalists are required to write hundreds of words against the clock errors are going to be made.
Re: Aaron Morley
I don’t that’s the case Brownie. He can’t go anywhere else on loan in January you’re right but he can move permanently to another club so we’re free to sell him to anyone.
As for Evatt holding shares, he holds what are effectively B Shares which like any company shares must be sold back to the club/company if you leave so that wouldn’t be an issue. Whether we can afford to sack him is a valid point and may be one reason why Sharon has backed him but there is always the gardening leave option until he finds another job which I suspect he’d do fairly quickly.
Re: Aaron Morley
The point about Morley is correct - you can’t represent three clubs in one season and he’s played for Bolton (league cup) and Wycombe this year, so if you sold him to someone else, he’d be sitting on his thumbs until August. At least, I think that’s the rule…
