...I like your sense of humour, Bobby.....!

"Striker needed." (JoeB2) As has been the case for what seems like yonks..... do you think we will still be in this position after 11.00 tonight?

i meant the loan contract that Vale signed, Wrex. ..... I've now given up on this topic. Cheers.

....I totally agree with this....I just assumed -quite wrongly obviously - that Liverpool thought he was okay to go to Vale and play, and Vale's medical staff obviously thought he was fit for purpose ! Anyway, enough said on this now from me.... need to concentrate fully on the next 6 hours 38 mins .

Don't be silly !!

..... because that's what we contracted to do..... just because we decide we don't want him, does not nullify the contract. Surely that's just basic contract law.... unless the EFL say "Okay, let's just forget it"

I don't imagine for one second that the loan contract we lodged with the EFL had 1st Feb as the end date, more like next May. If I am correct ( which isn't often !) my question still stands.... Will the EFL hold us to it?

With Williams having gone back to Liverpool for the rest of the season, does that mean we can just cancel the loan, as though it never happened? I presume we registered his signing with the FA/EFL and agreed with Liverpool to pay a certain percentage of his wages, however big/small, until the end of the season.... can we just pretend it never happened, or will the EFL hold us to the loan regardless?

.....does Wilson do any injuries other than long term ones..... "he'll back in 2 weeks" never happened, and it's always taken longer, sometimes stretching into months.

... Andy Crosby, I hope.

...to quote Bart Simpson... "exactamundo!" (or something like that!)

I would hope that he was annoyed at his own poor performance, rather than at being subbed. Last night he contributed very little, apart from a 'pea-roller' of a shot in the first half. Not sure we can keep playing both him and Arblaster in the same team against the better teams.

Agreed.... plenty of extra money available at Chelsea for both his wages and for (even more) players, but that comes with even greater expectations. At Brighton he will be on a decent wedge without all those expectations... he should stay at Brighton and continue to progress the club and his own career. I don't suppose he's too worried about the cost of living crisis on his current salary, but he could always use Chelsea's reported interest as a means to get a new contract/salary increase at Brighton.
