One must try to get these things right.
Your Excellency is a courtesy title used when addressing foreign officials including high foreign national officials such as president and cabinet minister, and foreign diplomats with the rank of ambassador and accredited minister.
Highness (abbreviation HH, oral address Your Highness) is a formal style used to address (in second person) or refer to (in third person) certain members of a reigning or formerly reigning dynasty. It is typically used with a possessive adjective: "His Highness", "Her Highness" (HH), "Their Highnesses", etc.11 -
No - Sheikh Saeed is definitely a 'Highness'.Raith_C_Chattonell said:

Any word on a press conference?
Not sure if its the done thing with takeovers but keen to hear more from them.7 -

'Chelsea have told Charlton that on-loan midfielder Conor Gallagher will finish the season at The Valley, despite interest in him from Burnley.'Dizzle said:
Hopefully that will put an end to fans worrying that he will leave this window.22 -
It was the Daily Mail reporting it... Was never any need to worry!!FishCostaFortune said:

I know that, and you know that, but you try and talk sense and explain the reasons why recalling Gallagher would be a foolish move for Chelsea, and go against all the evidence to the contrary - but fans can be so morbid and have already decided it is a fact.ForeverAddickted said:

(watch him go now and ill look like a right bell)4 -
I would be interested in reading the experiences and stories of those who had to work under the Roland reign. Olly, Jacko, more of the getting to know the network saga, etc.14

Looking forward to Ollie's book.....
Such great news for the staff; it must have been a proper ordeal under Shitweasel/Nightmeire. Well done for staying the course everyone....hopefully better days ahead now!9 -
Any one know if that prat Tony Kehones (sp) gone yet?1

Extremely good article with research done - Knew very little about Ujpest's difficulties with himScoham said:3 -
Like that one. Lots of Standard Liege content though, but I suspect that that is down to the Charlton capers being more recent and dare I say currently still a tad litigious.Scoham said:0 - Sponsored links:

Someone should show that article to Jim White.8

they can't just sack him though can they with no good reason. If he's been taking on a job above that for which he was previously employed they may even struggle to demote him, I don't know, Employment Laws are there for a reason. We'd all like to see the back of him but don't think it's that simple.Redmidland said:Any one know if that prat Tony Kehones (sp) gone yet?

Yes, they can sack him - but it will be on the basis of a settlement agreement, I'm sure.LargeAddick said:

Very well written piece, especially the below sentence.Scoham said:
“A century-old football club is a cultural artefact, not a business, and the fans are its curators, not its customers”30 -
Did we really lose several thousand season ticket holders under his dictatorship?
Naturally most of these will return now he has gone, compounded with the new influx of support generated during the playoffs the matchday support base should rise considerably, therefore leaving the overall fan base quite healthy indeed.
Be interesting to see the turnout next week0 -
