Yes, but very shrewd owners and business operations do not allow for that. And take great precautions. It is the same thing in the business world. A huge part of the purpose of the so-called "partner-system" system in the business world is exactly that. Weeding out the potential and the possibility of somebody important going to a competitor. Hence, that process works in such a way so as to decrease that potential and possibility as someone's importance within the firm rises. And a huge part of that is access to critical knowledge and information. yadda yadda...You don't get to see or know things before and unless you can be counted on not leaving for a competitor.

We mustn't have very shrewd owners or business operators then, because a number of our people appear to get head-hunted.
Still winning though (most weeks)

Webb was always shy of making big decisions himself.
A predictable boring fraud.

He's widely referred to as Red Howard or Raggie Webb for a reason.

You mean like they did when they snatched Maguire from under our nose.
Damn those pesky rags, always getting the better of us.

I know.
Don't want a ban though.....

I meant to have posted this on Monday.

I was listening to Roger Day, who is a rag twat, but a good DJ, on Boom Radio, and he was delighting in a"four game unbeaten run".

They aren’t half easily pleased these days.

I didn't know he was one of them. :(

City allow people to leave if they want to, players and staff, it's healthy for the future because future people know we won't stand in their way in the future if they want to better themselves.

Maresca was assistant to Pep, he was allowed to go to Leicester, and has since moved on to chelsea. Others have come and gone (and some retuned), absolutely nothing wrong with it.

I'm pretty sure City were pissed off at Arteta over the way and destination of his leaving, but let's be honest, that's the same risk with any member of the coaching team at any club. Most of them are looking to improve and try out the 'big chair' at some point

Yeh but a midnight meet ?? Anyway , fk him

And he’d have got awa away with it, if wasn’t for pesky City!

Apparently, yes.

And he’s originally from Kent, so it makes perfect sense.

Someone has posted the league table from 1930/31 on that FB lost footy grounds site.

Rags finished bottom and were relegated,

Goals conceded 115 :-) :-) :-)

It's a sign!
