Anyway, presumably Big Head's sacking will be announced when the NYSE opens. Not sure what time that is though.

I'd be tempted to wonder if the alleged £5million pay-off plus £400,000 FA cup bonus plus the alleged £6.4million he was being paid anyway might have softened the tragedy slightly... 8)

Sometimes, you just have to guffaw...
Auntie wrote:Chelsea registered both the name Jose Mourinho and his signature as a European trademark in 2005, meaning they can use it to sell merchandise such as toiletries, technology, clothing and jewellery.

Sports lawyer Carol Couse told BBC Sport it was "really unusual" for an individual not to own the trademark to their own name.

"Chelsea could be earning revenue every time someone uses Mourinho's name. It could prevent United from exploiting his signature," said Couse, of law firm Mills & Reeve.

"One of the things United will be looking to acquire is not only Mourinho's image but also his name.

"If United had a brand of Mourinho clothing it would be in breach of the trademark Chelsea currently own."

Anyone heard Wayne Rooney has drawn level with Bobby Charlton's mediocre record. Feck me.

Bobby Charlton was a midfielder who, as far as I know, didn't get to take penalties. Bobby Charlton also survived an air crash and won the European and World Cups. Work to do, John Henshaw :)
