As a taster: Entry for December 2009

Haya Long Overdue To Fire Someone; David Holmes Gets the Honour
As first reported by Horse and Hound. Some seem to be confused as to whether or not this was really "mutual," so a quick Bullshit-to-English translation guide is useful for these FEI "departure" announcements:

"departure" = sacked
"mutual agreement" = sacked + cash to keep quiet
"denied any fallout" = fallout, and...sacked
"abrupt" = sacked
"out of the blue" = sacked
"shocked" = sacked
"adjustments to the management structure" = told Haya what she didn't want to hear (truth, reason, common sense, statutes, etc.), a/k/a sacked
"we are very sorry to lose him" = sacked
we are thankful for his contributions = sacked
"we wish him well with all his future endeavours" = sacked
"I've made a real difference" = EXTRA sacked
"financial reasons" = something other than financial reasons
"no disagreement over the bute issue" = disagreement over the bute issue
