I know you did :-) Just pulling your leg!

Yes, good touch and finish on him. He’s carrying a bit more timber than I imagined. Shows you the power of a £5,000 suit!

Still trimmer than Luke Shaw though!

Why're they suing City & not Asahi? What's it gotta do with us if they call their beer 'Super Dry'?

How dya get a bottle of beer & a winter coat mixed up, unless you've already drank a crate full?

Yea I mean even uncle Albert wouldn't get a coat and a drink mixed up lol but......

Superdry are in a mess financially. They're heavily indebted and the share price has plummeted. They've been selling off assets to try to improve their balance sheet.

This is the legal equivalent of a sting from a dying wasp.

Also, in 2002, Asahi filed an objection to Superdry using that name. That failed on the grounds that the brand name Asahi was used, which enabled the two brands to be distinguished. The word 'Asahi' is very prominent on the training kit, so it's hard to see how this action will succeed.

Once we're in the National League North, we'll need him to do it on cold, wet nights in South Shields, Blyth and Chorley ;)

I've been going to watch Buxton FC recently to acclimatize to the conditions

There was the same issue when I was working in an accounting firm and they audited two businesses which were in competition. What happened is that two different partners took the jobs and they were thoroughly independent and confidential because the partners and the audit teams, as complete professionals, would never discuss each other's jobs and ......

Nah, sorry, can't finish that with a straight face. God knows how we could get away with that shit.

It’s the same as Investment Banks… their M&A division work with specific clients and know their future plans in absolute detail - including acquisition targets but of course they wouldn’t ever pass on this info. to their proprietary traders…. As if.
