  1. I am well aware of what it is but being a director/board member has its own problems and potential liabilities which if the rumours are correct could land any successful applicant in deep shit.
  2. Two things: Invested ‘millions’ in the team. Joke! I assume said director would have joint and several liability so if AL fucks off they would well and truly be left holding the baby.
  3. It isn't a manager they want it is a Cuckold (a weak or servile man). I know it has other meanings but who knows Ab & Mo might think they have the "droit du seigneur" for any new manager.
  4. The permanent manager has to be appointed with games to play so he can assess the squad and determine who should stay, who should go and what he needs. (aside "manager doesn't pick team or squad") Ah so we could just have no one. Wouldn't it be a really good idea if the brothers Lemsagam did take over the management/coaching until the end of the season and we didn't win another game.
  5. Protesting, marching, throwing things are all a waste of time. They might make you feel better but a waste of time. The only thing that has some chance of working is a boycott. To stop supporting your/our club is a difficult thing. Do I throw 27 years down the drain and not renew my season card? Are we willing, by removing our support, to relegate our club from the EFL? It is a simple but very difficult choice.
  6. It is interesting that the response to the poor form of our team is to seek their replacement rather than to consider why the form has dipped to such a low relegation level.
  7. 5 points from 5 games is er relegation form. Just saying.
  8. What a load of nuts! We get season tickets for same price with a handful of offers and off they go again. No wonder I gave this a rest and will do again. Great work Billy. Remember most of us are grateful and see the common sense in what you are doing.
  9. What a clusterfuck that was. I thought after Tuesday anyone with half a brain could see how poor Chris O'Grady is. Wrong! Lang injured and on with the 'clusterfuck'. First long ball watched the defender. Second long ball didn't even leave the ground. All he had to do was hold the ball. Not once. A nice flick on the only positive bit of play. Everyone else played their part but Chris O'Grady let us down. We would have been better off taking Lang off and replacing him with no one. Disappointed? You bet two points thrown away.
  10. What a wonderful thread this is. We have just exhausted the New Manager speculation only to get potentially six months of everyone free to speculate on who and why and what and could we (the Trust) purchase Boundary Park with all the people who know who and why and what sworn to silence. Manna from heaven. Go to it.............. PS I think it is the thing that I could have said I told you so only I'm not going to tell (confidentiality of the urinal - boys will understand). But if it is it will be some of the best news we have heard for a long long time.
  11. A great performance. Carried on playing football against provocative and an impotent ref who thought it was all about him. Foul on Hamer should have been a red. Having got away with it he did the same to George but then realised a third attempt might get that useless self important ref to do something. They came for a draw, thought they could kick us off the ball and we stayed true and run out deserved winners. Hope is back. Team set up to win. Maouche did a job in defence then stepped up after Jose went off to score. Yeeha!!!!
  12. Oh dear! Somebody might mention the "hope' word again...............
  13. We can all rest easy in the knowledge that this tread will run for at least another 11 pages. I would have thought the press conference at 2 this afternoon would be made available live for all to see.
  14. I did wonder where any statement at 6.30 this evening would be stated. Let’s enjoy the win, the performances of Branger (the chosen one) and Zach plus our defensive Nepo!
  15. 2 - 1 with dubious penalty winner in extra time. So a fully fit Taylor is a better option on the bench than a fully fit Hunt!
  16. Don't know - just says so on match preview
  17. Why include Lacovitti when you have Nepo?
  18. Afolayan doesn't join the squad until next week.
  19. Well I started reading the efl rules but as my brain was turning to mush didn't get to the bit that says you can hold 10% purely as an investment.
  20. Just imagine a situation in which you allow a football agent to buy a 97% stake in a football club because he says I've passed my interest in the agency to a third party "allegedly" a relative and then you allow that club to take on a manager who holds a 10% share in a club likely to be in the same football league division next year because the manager says I don't really do anything for them. Coach & Horses comes to mind. Don't get me wrong Paul Scholes can only give Abdallah a wake up call when it comes to respective roles so I'm interested to see it happen. He was the best footballer bar none in the position he played and hopefully some of that will rub off onto our players.
  21. Because page 128 is still 22 away and we need intrigue in our mundane lives.
  22. The stupid thing is that selling his 10% holding doesn’t mean he would have no influence in the Salford project. It is as with AL that efl want to be seen to do the right thing I suppose.
  23. I would like to say I told you so but as I haven't I can't. Next season could be fun. There is always next season well unless we drop out of the football league.
