There is probably as much truth in that as there was in his last sentence

Is everything hindsight though? I raised the recruitment department issue years ago and on various occasions. Asked about how many players were signed via our scout reports? No answer given and clear swerve. I had a good discussion with him about 4 players at the time (Thorne, Anya, Butterfield & Martin) I think it was. We were paying them collectively around 100k per week. 400k per month so just under 5m per year. These players were not even offering us anything on the pitch and were either on loan or not being used in the case of Anya. His answer was that these players can still offer us something in terms of other value with youngsters etc - I mean come on!  Lets not even go with his signing of Rooney (under mining Cocu) & Jordan Ibe. Actually starting to think he signed Ibe because he offers value in the way we account - 7m maybe eh.
The issue has and will always be that Mel Morris does not listen to anyone else but himself. Pretty much like the managers issue, Sam Rush saga (proven in court he was wrong) and now Richard Keogh who again has proven he was wrong in court - no apology or hands up to say look I got this wrong. 
Then you have the fact that he got rid of anyone that would question him. Where are all the high profile local people - Don Amott, why is he not welcome anymore? 
So what you are left with is a yes man in Pearce and his step son in the recruitment department, jobs for the boys an all that...
So if anyone is wondering why its gone wrong its because of Mel Morris and how he is as a person. Ask the local media who deal with him, when he is not banning them for having the audacity to ask a question mind! 

Keogh didn’t break the law, the other 2 morons did. If he had done he would have been prosecuted and we would know about it. As for ‘bowing down to idiots in tribunals’ what other method would you suggest for someone who feels they have been unfairly treated by their employer? You cannot go to someone who has a work contract and say ‘Accept less money or you’re sacked’; you have to go through due process. Richard Keogh is an irresponsible twit for having got into a car with a drunk driver instead of getting into a taxi but Mel Morris made his legal claim easy for him. 
 

I really hope you are never asked to advise anyone, as to be honest your lack of knowledge is truly impressive ?

Because I would in their position, they are professional highly skilled individuals who have been told they made a mistake by a group of people with apparently less technical knowledge.  I think it borderlines insulting.

Mel strikes again ? Probably would have got away with it if we sacked Lawrence and bennett aswell. We should have done.

You cant have one contractual limit for one and not another,he didn't make himself unable to play,the driver did by having an accident,doesn't matter about the impact on the club.All about money as far as Mel Trotter was concerned and he came unstuck.
This time next year Keogh will be a millionaire

Anybody else think we should stop the we're 'being picked on by the nasty efl' gubbins? This 'Oh woe is me' stuff is a bit cringey I think. What will be will be.

He already is a multi millionaire 
it is the same contract in his case his action resulted in him not being able to fulfill his contract of employment but apparently we went for gross misconduct

My Missus thinks that may be Lawrence who lives in Kemnay, he likes to take the parrot with him when he goes for a pint. You will know it's him if you see him again, just say to the parrot "where's Melissa" and watch the reaction you get. No joke honest and no i haven't had a drink, it's the sabbath.
