Surprisingly somewhat naive comments from you on this issue. The context issue you claim is clearly laid out in your post - well it is if you believe wholeheartedly in Owls report. You of all people from a debating POV would question the validity of hearsay comment. If Owly had asked the question himself then that might have had some credibility. It is not unusual for posters to embellish their comments with supportive 'facts' which in this case was all to rapidly assumed as 'gospel', particularly if it supports their argument. The vilification of vV is partly driven by theories arising from our relegation; none of us are in the know [except one
], but if vV did utter those words in the manner claimed then of course, he deserves no sympathy. To be frank I am surprised you have adopted/assumed the popular viewpoint without first deliberating on the known facts.
You give players too much sympathy .
Van Veen has taken the money and is not committed .
He is not injured and does not want to be here .
There’s a reason Sc***horpe wanted him out .
Alexander coming in was his best hope but that isn’t happening .
The question is who else will pay his wages and can we recover £125k?
