Well yes happens all the time. "Player turns down big move as his children like their English teacher".
I would, for balance, be interested in hearing a candid view from a player with kids settled in a local school. Whilst they may in the medium term find employment elsewhere, it simply has to be unsettling until clarity prevails
Fleck had to move from Glasgow to Coventry when this happened to him
Fleck refused to stay. He got a better offer. Edjuingele moved from Greece. Behave yourself.
I know this might sound completely mental, but it is possible to have a good day at the office and still be worried about the overall state of your employer. To claim there's no impact on the players is ludicrous (frankly I'd be more worried if they were so insulated from reality that they didn't have a clue what was happening), but as for exactly what the impact is, and how damaging it could be, forgive me if I wait to see more than three hours worth of performances before making some grand judgement.
A close friend of mine worked for one of those Quango's identified by David Cameron. He was a manager a a decent level.
Cameron suggested if he came into power he would get rid of them.
During that period of speculation it became a lot harder to manage staff.
People became less motivated. Took days of sick where it was likely they were job hunting.
Once Cameron came in and announced he was going to get rid. This intensified people were at work taking phone calls and making phone calls to other companies.
Some were holding in for redundancy others jumping shop straight away.
In house fighting intensified.
Work productivity plummeted.
If he worked for the major quango in Cheylesmore you're talking bollocks.
People working in quangos are used to working with the cloud of potential redudancy over their heads, remember that quangos have always been stated to have a maximum lifespan, also remember that dissolving a quango doesn't mean that people lose their jobs.
So why does work productivity only plummet when we're at home?

It wasn't in Cheylesmore no
And to suggest that closing down a quango does not mean that people lose their jobs does fit in the speaking bollox category
20% of workers are now temping in agencies around the Coventry area, most of them on the minimum wage
20% have landed full-time jobs in the private sector
a further 20% have become freelance or are in the process of trying to set up their own businesses
three people are applying their skills in the Middle East.
That leaves 40% of staff - some 70 people - still looking for work.
I worked in a quango that was closed down. NOBODY lost their job. That is a fact.
Exactly. Fans trying to look for excuses for poor player performances at home should look at the environment they create rather than look to someone else to blame (I blame SISU for my runny egg this morning syndrome). There is a subtle difference in the culture of home and away support and it shows up in the performances.
Taga do you think Tim Fishers statement to the national press that the club may close down in the next few weeks.
Has had an overall positive impact on morale of all staff at CCFC, a negative one or no impact at all.
Personally I think it has to have a negative one
It will have a small negative impact... but my point is that when you are on the pitch you are not impacted by statements from the board but you really are affected by fans booing (and cheering....remember those days at home). In summary, players are more affected by fan reaction than press talk when actually playing, so we should look at us fans more than the board for not helping the players whilst on the pitch.
Not sure i've articulated this very well but I hope you get my point.
Well thanks for that this one was not based in Cheylesmore and people did lose their jobs.
So I am not as you so eloquently put it speaking bollocks!
However people do lose jobs when quangos are closed up
Maybe not at your particular one but at others so alas you are speaking bollocks
It's funny actually because one of its subsequent quangos was also closed, and guess what, nobody lost their job.
