Actually I like cnuts
Spot on.
Ah! So you're as big a cnut as he is?
I do too, but only nice cnuts.
Oh yes I would
Then you would be paying out big bucks and your star man would be smiling all the way to the bank
Probably a big cnut.
I'm off for the w/end and if this thread has not gone beyond 20,000 posts upon my return I shall be reporting the cafe to the relevent authorities
You would probably regret doing that.
There are different ways of getting rid of people.
Sometimes it costs, other times it doesn't.
ok then.
You could probably sue for breach of contract, if you put in something in the contract. It's just that most employers don't bother, doesn't mean they always won't.
Why do you think Ronaldo wouldn't put in a transfer request?
Ramon Calderon's credibility lies in tatters after Cristiano Ronaldo summer-saga ends

When Sir Alex Ferguson attacked Real Madrid with talk of General Franco, and Carlos Queiroz likened the Spaniards' pursuit of Cristiano Ronaldo to an Iberian border dispute, a clearly stung Ramon Calderon took a step back from the soap opera that had begun to dominate the summer.
It was still June and Real's president realised he might have overplayed his hand, succeeding only in angering the club with whom he would have to deal, risking shattering the dreams of fans.
Covering his back, he insisted that "not signing Ronaldo would not be a failure". He fooled nobody then and fewer still are under any illusions now: a failure is exactly what it is.
Ronaldo's decision to stay at Manchester United is a massive blow that even the implicit opportunity to sign him in the future cannot soften. Not so much for coach Bernd Schuster nor for the players, but for Calderon himself, who will now desperately scramble for a big name. After all, the one thing that matters more to him than anything else is at stake: his own survival.
Right now, having spent a bullish summer briefing that Ronaldo was in the bag, the credibility of Real's president lies in tatters. All the more so because this is a depressingly familiar scene.
Calderon won Madrid's controversial presidential elections with just over 8,000 votes – of 80,000 members. He has embarked on a rather desperate search for legitimacy ever since. Like a politician in mid-campaign, he has endlessly visited supporters' clubs, trying to win over fans. Madrid may have won two successive league titles but Calderon has not won the fans.

I've never regretted sacking anyone.
This is why I wouldn't want United to be run by the fans.
If you got a good reason for sacking someone, its all good and you dont have to regret anything. But a person cant be sacked for being a cnut, some people are, but may very well be a good employee.
Viva Ronaldo
I wouldn't sack anyone for being a cnut.
I would sack them if I found out they were speaking to a rival.
Because I believe he never wanted to fall out with Fergie or the club ........ asking for transfer has nothing to do with beach of contract
Absolutely spot on!
Not much else to say, except that I never thought I'd see the day when an article in the Sun is supposedly hitting the mark... An alarm bell should ring when you find yourself agreeing with one of the worst rags in the shitty world of tabloids.
I'd say you are very naive.
When a player hands in a transfer request, he stands to lose out financially, compared to when a player gets sold without having handed one in.
THAT I believe is the reason Ronaldo didn't.
thats a loyality issue, but if your worker was hard to replace, would you still sack him because you felt hurt by his inloyalty against you? Probably your guy would get a brand new job at your rival if you fired him anyway.
Even if he/she was your best employee? someone who brought in most of the cash? someone who's work was always top quality?
the trouble is the shitty world of the sun is bought by enough people to make it the biggest selling newspaper in the uk.
I would sack him out of principle.
I am naive? do you for one moment not think Madrid could have easily compensated Ronaldo for that!
Yep.
While the club can't actually punish players financially for handing in transfer requests, basically it means the player wants to tear up the contract. So he needs to pay for the privilege.
thats always left me pondering as to why?? why do so many people buy the sun?
Maybe. Signing fees are quite big though, could easily have added another 5-10% to the transfer fee.
Fine by me, I wouldnt if I knew he/she would be hard to replace and it would be bad for business.
They probably would. If they could.
A transfer would obviously have stretched Real financnially, and you are probably talking about 10% on top of that.
And a transfer request could have reduced it by much more than that also his wages in spain would not have incurred the same tax penalties as the uk.
Because there are millions of thick people about.
Everyone can be replaced.
Well, they have page 3 after all. Infotainment is doing quite well across the globe, doesn't make it any less annoying though.
hehe. funny guy you.
