Clutching at straws

[Geoff Parkstone]

Interesting - the league haven't taken action, other clubs don't support him, but he's taking it into his own hands?

Whilst I think if rules had been broken, the authorities would have acted, I think Boro have a point. The door should maybe be bolted for the future as it does smell a little.

So why aren't Boro suing the FL ?

Geoff not sure it does smell In any business when you require money one of your first options is to sell some of your assets In the case of a football club ( It's only a business) these would be your players, or your ground. Incidentally in the FL nine clubs owners have bought their clubs grounds If we hadn't beaten WBA pretty sure Boro wouldn't be crying like they are

...and of course the timing is purely coincidental.

Coincidentally, this happens in the very week that the BBC has spent a lot of time, effort, money and brodcasting hours boosting Middlesbrough's reputation after it was voted "worst town in England" or "worst place to grow up...." in a survey last year. It seems you can paint a turd, you can even smother it with perfume but its true character still rises to the surface.

Don't forget the spending spree in the january transfer window whilst in the Prem

They spent a good wad on the likes of Patrick Bamford. He's in no position to throw stones that bloke trust me, he's done his conkers and now wants the EFL to give them him back.

If we stay in this league then at least we get to play the likes of Leeds and Boro next season

He's spunked all their parachute payments on absolute dross and is now throwing a temper tantrum

Britt Assombalonga - £15m
Aden Flint - £7m
George Saville - £8m
Paddy McNair - £5m
Rudy Gestede - £6m
Ashley Fletcher - £6.5m
Stewart Downing - £7m
Johnny Howson - £6m
Martin Braithwaite - £9m

Not to mention the wages on those plus John Obi Kinoli and Tony Pulis

F*** off, Gibson, you absolute muppet

Go and shave that stupid hair piece off as well

[StensonRam]

Under what grounds is he suing us though, the EFL are happy with what we did so what's he clutching at, should he fail would or could it be construed as disrepute?

Stenson the whole thing doesn't add up You don't ring up and inform someone you are going to sue them It has to be done legally I think they are just trying to stir it up before Monday
