How did the Ship Canal get in this thread?

(I cross it at least twice a day over Barton Bridge)

How come Joe Royle has to pay back £400 000?

That's some overpayment.

Joe's not as daft as he looks, evidently.

CITY WIN ROYLE BATTLE
Tuesday 08 March 2005


Former Manchester City boss Joe Royle has been stripped by Appeal Court judges of his £423,000 compensation payout.

Royle was sacked by the club in 2001 and he subsequently sued City when he received only a fraction of the pay-off he claimed he was due in May 2001.


JOE ROYLE
However, Lord Justice Sedley, Lady Justice Smith and Lord Justice Gage overturned the earlier court award. Royle, now Ipswich Town boss, was also ordered on Tuesday to pay City's legal costs, which were thought to be over £80,000.

The club had urged the appeal judges to reflect the reality of the circumstances at the time of Royle's departure in May 2001. It asked the judges to rule that he was not entitled to be compensated on a full salary basis as though the club were still in the Premiership.

Mr Royle argued that the club was not actually sent down to the First Division until some time later, when the three relegated clubs handed over their Premiership company shares to the three promoted teams.

But Lady Justice Smith said that, whether the club was about to be or had just been relegated, it was inevitably going to play in the First Division the following season and the manager, but for his dismissal, would have been on a lower rate of pay.

Mr Royle was refused leave to appeal further to the House of Lords.

Without reading thru 8 pages of notes I wonder if the question was ever answered correctly using the second law of thermodynamics - a hot body radiates heat more effectively than a cold body.

Heat flow become alot more efficent as temperature rises. So the 75 degree vessel will radiate heat faster than a 65 degree vessel gains heat. The 75 degree will get to 70 faster than the 65.

Smorgs, or anyone, how can you tell who is correct?

How can one ever tell, when anything is correct?

As far as I'm concerned, just about everything is subject to change.

Are there such thing's as momentary truths? (the truth as we know it at the moment)

Excuse the derailing.

WEDDING BELLS may be a certainty, but weddings are not.

Naw. You've seen those 'movies' where the bride runs off from the alter with another man, haven't you? Or the fact that some weddings last a day or a week. WEDDING BELLS, yes. Weddings, no.
