I don’t accept it is casual racism to simply pick an image that looks like the person we are talking about. Frankly, I think you have mind rot if you think that it is. In any event, my intention was to have a laugh not completely hijack the point of the thread (the protest and desire to remove DC, which I agree with).

I thought he bought it from us (like the ground) to get around FFP (I.e., to provide cash injection). However I could be wrong. Either way I think the club has less assets than it did when he bought us.

Club’s assets have been reduced in actual terms as compared to the club he acquired: the club no longer owns the ground or training complex. You can argue about value of the squad (as compared to what he inherited) but there are a lot out of contract in any event. For context, the new owners acquiring a stake in Birmingham City at market value last summer meant that the entire club was valued at £22m. I think DC would struggle to get what he paid for us on that basis, even with inflation (but obviously the ground and training facility would be dealt with separately).

agree. It’s not a gap anymore, it’s a chasm. Need to bust the financial status quo like Brentford, Brighton and Luton

A gif of Asian man being pepper sprayed at a protest posted as a joke (not saying it’s funny but the attempt was made) ion a thread about images of a protest against our chairman who happens to be Asian? I suppose I could have chosen a protest gif showing a person of another race being sprayed but the nature of the joke (I.e, a gif showing a man with the broadest likeness to the chairman) would have been fundamentally compromised would it not? safest bet is probably to attempt no jokes at all?

it’s your site, you make the rules. what’s your policy on accusations of “casual racism” that are baseless? That seems more objectionable than a mild jibe about someone’s delicate temperament?

Chansiri the plonker has got to go. Protest away!

Watch out Beadle’s about (take my strong hand)

Hands like cows ******** and awful distribution! Time to give Vasquez another go.

Built like Tarzan, plays like Jane. It’s a no from me.

So sad for him. He and his club have literally willed themselves up to play in the Prem out of sheer work ethic only for him to be disqualified by some genetic medical bad luck. Might be end of his playing career which is desperately sad - one thing is defo true though - he has gone out on his shield !

Powell is a class act. Really pleased he’s with us

Are we not in an embargo? Where are the mythical signings coming from?

Not a decent championship player in the squad imho. Squads like that can stay safe if they play to their strengths tactically and have good team spirit and work ethic. We don’t do that and we have made a bunch of random signings on top of an ageing and/or limited squad. Don’t think we have any strengths (let alone know what they are). Buck stops with Chansiri absolutely no question. Good business people know what they can and can’t do, know what they do and don’t know. He’s no businessman, he's a trust fund kid ego maniac. No hope until he ******** off.

It’s all on DC. Everything since Wembley is all him.
