Why do people keep insisting on bringing business analogies into football? It isn't like other businesses and you can't judge it like them.

No he hasnt, and the one thing you could never accuse Randy of is treating it like a normal business, which leads back to what I said earlier.

I agree, the point of my post was that if a business analogy was being applied then the one that had been suggested was not on all fours with the facts here anyway.

I've seen others say that we should rest Benteke and play the likes of Helenius. For me though, I think it could be a good opportunity to get Benters firing again. He just needs one goal and he could be back to his old self.

Well that's the beauty of different opinions. I guess we just have different interpretations of the "facts"
