Not so sure about corners, but bye kicks used to have to be taken from the same side of the 6 yard box as the ball had gone out of play in, on the same principle as the corner example. The rule for that was relaxed to allow the bye to be taken from anywhere within the 6 yard box (thus allowing the keeper even more leeway for timewasting). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudia Gentile Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) So there is compensation for players and managers if they leave a football club for another under contract but why are all these directors of football and footballing operations not able to move freely between clubs?

Players and managers are not free to move between clubs if under contract. If you mean why are clubs more willing to negotiate to let players and managers break the contract compared to directors of football/football operations - maybe the latter have more access to commercially sensitive information etc?

Bloody autocorrect. Yeah I meant compensation for players and managers. Just not sure why this has come in for executives and the like. Your suggestion makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbaxters Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 This is one for the Travel Forum but I would like a quick reply, so I'm calling on all you Skyscanner experts. Is it possible to book a return flight ticket which returns to a different destination. e.g. Milan to New York- New York to Edinburgh using one ticket? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salt n Vinegar Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Hi folks. Our lad has paid us for some event tickets but still had paper banknotes. We took them because we knew they could be traded in for the newer plastic ones. Trouble is, they are from 4 different banks - BoS, RBS, Clydesdale and even one BoE. Anyone know if they can all be traded in at one bank or if we have to visit 3 or 4? I've has a quick look online but no clear answer jumped out at me. Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most banks will let you pay them into your account, at least up to a few years ago. As a charity shop worker, we'd regularly find the odd ancient paper note in donations, some of which had ceased being legal tender even before the plastic notes came in. Never had a problem banking them. I thought they were just being nice to a charity, but staff at HBOS and RBOS both told me they did it for anyone with an account, so long as they didn't come in with a wad of them or anything. Presumably the issuers all have an agreement to cover each other's losses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt n Vinegar Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 1 hour ago, SlipperyP said: post office https://www.postoffice.co.uk/banknote-exchange Thanks for that. I tried it. The link takes you to a page about changing notes at participating branches and gives a link for you to find one. You put your postcode in and it takes you to a branch finder page, where you put in your postcode. You put in your postcode and the nearest branch is given. Hurrah. You go to that branch only to be told that no, that don't do it there. You tell them that the website says they do, or at least gives no indication that they don't, but no... So I went to a branch of the RBS which was further away and was able to deposit all the notes into my account. No wonder the Post Office gets bad press. If they can't even get accurate information about services on their website they deserve all the keech they get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would get folk coming in all the time for services we didn't do, and it would always turn out that their website said we did. According to the boss, no amount of asking them to change it would make a difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had never occurred to me until now, but they must get slipped fake notes for lapdances all the time. Never been to a strip club, but I presume the lassies don't whip out a UV light from their arsecrack when handed cash? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
