Keep pace ?

Written by Ben Willcocks. Quick google search and his linkedin bio begins with - 'I have graduated with a gold standard NCTJ in Multimedia Sports Journalism and have 100wpm shorthand. Before becoming a journalist, I worked for five years as a secondary school English teacher'.

So his credentials are effectively 100wpm shorthand and working as an English teacher. One thing in his locker certainly isn't reporting the facts.

So he's a PA (a very efficient one by the sounds of it) who enjoys reading Of Mice & Men?

The back drop of the swamp is because the first match of the tournament is there. Why is it not at Wembley? Did they think it would not sell out ? If so it is very poor from the organisers.

They have no legal standing, is my belief, rather than illegal. Unlike in Spain, where they're mandatory and legally enforceable.

My understanding is that "Buy Out" clauses are illegal in the UK (i.e. player buys out his own contract to leave). Probably the best recent example of this was Neymar from Barca to PSG. Legally he paid the £222M himself... that PSG had given him that money is irrelevant. This is what is mandatory in Spain.

A "Release" clause (i.e. buying club meets a certain contractually agreed selling price) is allowed.

The two types are completely different.

If we put a release clause in Haalands contract we will abide by it that’s the type of club we are..

Can't help themselves can they? And this from a club who've had a womens team a mere 2 years

To be fair, the opening game is there tonight.
