15 mill is a lot to cardiff tbh. Fifa should just step in and pay. 15 mill is peanuts to the premierleague/Fifa

Well what would have happened in a parallel universe if Sala had played for Cardiff turned out a flop then they had to absorb his huge wages for 3 years loan him out and then he left on a free at the end of his contract? Who would have paid for that?

Surely Cardiff can see how distasteful this whole episode is and how it reflects on their club.

Can I add to the above that Cardiff pay the 15 million transfer fee to Nantes,  the agent's fees get paid to the relatives of the deceased and also Cardiff get relegated this year to give them opportunity to reflect on what actually matters in this whole episode 

Just read an interview with the Cardiff City Chairman saying that if they are contractually obliged to pay the transfer fee to Nantes then they will do.

Why wouldn't they be contractually obliged? If the guy was killed by walking infront of a bus would they be having the same argument

Typical middle-aged, humourless Facebook fare.

I see young people who have been told that the only possible path is to go to university. Blame the people who are of the age that this type of page is aimed at for perpetuating this myth.

P.S. Apologies for posting something serious in the joke thread.

You could say the same thing about typical juvenile humourless Lads Bible fare on Facebook.

Given the lack of apprenticeship schemes what is the viable alternative.

I went to Uni when Derbyshire County Council paid for my beer money without coming out 50k in hock so I'm OK I suppose.

Legitimate question ☺

Not sure if this is the right place but in my opinion some kind of forum etiquette needs to be installed on here. Not talking about bans for using racist,  homophobic articles or deleting posts that contravene forum guidelines on politics or religion but moderating members behaviours.

As an example when I run meetings at work I set up meeting etiquette rules such as arrive to the meeting on time, turn off mobiles, come prepared, do not talk over other people when they are talking etc as a professional courtesy to the other attendees.

Same thing to translate to this forum, treat other members with respect, do not deliberately points score or deliberately patronise or belittle other posters views etc. 

Any thoughts? I know it's an open forum but my word there are some folks on here who don't know how to conduct themselves or behave in an appropriate manner.

Hey guys, I'm looking for some honest advice here.

My first GCSE exam starts tomorrow and I'm working hard, but I find that I'm getting increasingly distracted by the forum. My exam results mean a lot to me as I have high ambitions for the future

Don't worry. Society has already condemned you to the scrapheap.

How do you keep a bunch of morons in suspense? I'll tell you tomorrow 

Silly question for the uninitiated, how do I copy a link into a post so that the link content is visible in the page not just the hyperlink addresa?  Ditto for an image.

Exactly my position Inglorious. I am high functioning and diagnosed recently although I've managed to live a reasonably 'normal' life up to now having a partner and kid who aren't on the spectrum. I find I have a tendency to think that whatever I think or say then i'm right and everyone else is wrong but i'm learning to accept that others have other opinions that are equally as valid. I also have a strong desire to see people who commit the most innocuous of 'crimes' such as parking in a disabled bay when they aren't disabled told about it and punished. It's just something that drives me. If it's wrong then it's wrong and often with the unfathomable behaviour of many other people, day to day life is tricky as i'm always getting annoyed at people who don't do the right thing and I've been in scuffles and arguments about this with strangers many times.

At times you do feel like you don't belong on earth and you are a complete different species and something that makes perfect sense to you doesn't seem so clear cut to others not on the spectrum and it is frustrating. I don't avoid human contact but I do prefer either people who pretty much think and act like me or people who basically just don't annoy me. I'm pretty judgemental which means I haven't really made as many close friends as I could have over my 20 years of working. If someone is into enough stuff that I find trivial then I cannot get past pleasantries. It's tough but learning all the time.

Chin up mate. Just gotta keep plodding along with it, managing and trying to push yourself as much as you can.

Thanks for your thoughts, at least now I have some understanding I can maybe find a little closure. I have a lot of your similar traits I find it difficult to maintain social or trivial chit chat and have just lost many friends or contacts through my life just down to lack of motivation or effort on my part. Thanks again for your wishes.

Being really nosey now, but can I ask how the diagnosis came about? Sounds uncannily like me! 

I thought that something had been wrong for a long time but I guess just accepted things to be just the way they were, I got to a certain age and wanted at least some understanding and undertook a lot of internet researching and recognised that the majority of my symptoms were associated with Aspergers, had to fight tooth and nail.to get a referreral to a psychologist from my GP which is where we are now what we're your circumstances.

I've recently been diagnosed with having Aspergers Syndrome which is a form of autism, I am still coming to terms with accepting this and found it even more difficult to cope with the diagnosis given that the clinical psychologist who diagnosed me said there is basically no cure as such and that it was just about managing the condition. He gave me a list of contact groups whom became apparent that they were all geared around autism in children not for a middle aged adult like myself and then referred me back to my GP whose knowledge of the subject was cursory. 

I asked to be referred to a CBT whom discharged me after a few sessions as she said there was nothing she could help me with, it seems that there are no contact or help groups for adults with autism I have a moderate condition on the autism spectrum which means I can function at a level on a day to day basis unlike some sufferers but still has a huge impact on my existence for example avoiding human contact, having little or no appetite to do anything, like depression which I have also suffered from, it can be very debilitating.
