Another one who will slip through the net because Todd is unsackable and here for another two and a half years. Shame really because Ritchie is probably about the best fish in the shitpool right now and he'd be available compo free.

If they have to pay off Todd why not just keep him on as a Tea Boy and give him no responsiblitity or authority what so ever, that way they can pay him off over the length of his contract.

Maybe we could make him director of football and just give him a table football set and convert the toolshed to an office, his duties would be to make sure the matchballs are fully pumped up for matchday.

he'd still have to be paid in money that's not there though Rick. Don't forget, that the current method of bringing players in is to ship one out first. tThatrs because there is not enough money to pay everyone. Eg Clarke and Rogers go out and Black comes in. There is not enoguh money to pay two managers. That's why Todd is in no danger.
