my two aunties used to never miss the wrestling at Belle Vue wasn't one called Jack Pye they were always on about him
 
From the bbc footy pages, a heartwarming paragraph;

Another United source was of the same mind. They too concluded the saga will end with Ronaldo exiting the club he arrived at with such fanfare last August, after they stepped in amid interest from Manchester City, unable to accept one of their most famous players would end up at the club that has taken their mantel as the dominant force in the English game.
I hope he stays, he is messing it up from the inside. Doesn't matter how many he scores it's all about him.
 
Also had a maths teacher at Ardwick Tech who wrestled at Belle Vue forgot is name but it was in the 1950's
 
"One major issue with the buy-out clause is the belief that this type of clause would be unenforceable in the English courts. In English law, though the courts have allowed parties to pre-agree damages for a breach of contract, they have taken it upon themselves to limit the use of penalty clauses. The English courts have generally held that a clause imposing the obligation on the defaulting party to pay an extravagant sum for the breach of contract is a penalty clause and hence is void and unenforceable."


Several years old though, so may have changed to be honest & unlike you, I believe, I'm not an expert in the law. :-)
I think you meant 'unenforceable' rather than 'illegal'. Grealish had a £100m buyout clause in his contract but Villa initially refused to honour it. His agency - Stellar - negotiated with them and eventually they did honour it of course but it's questionable whether Grealish would've had a cast-iron case if he'd taken them to court had they not done.
 
Fair play to Melissa Reddy. Paid to travel the world to report on her beloved Liverpool for the biggest sports TV Network in the country impartially and with balance....

Who the fuck am I kidding. The network is nothing more than a PR channel for the Dips.
