madfan Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I will only be happy when the Messiah's missionaries give us the full back ground to this. No doubt this bloke will turn out to be a money launderer/asset stripper/embezzler and crap business man too. My Wednesdayite subscription doesn't run out until August - can't wait for the next news letter to get the full back ground on this scoundrel. Are you being serious ?

Guest phshaw Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 So what is the new owner's budget? How is he going to fund the club? What is happening to the charges on the ground to 3rd parties? Will we end up in mega debt like QPR? How will we be able to comply with FFP and sign all these players? No-one can say for certain AT THIS TIME that he is so definitively the 'right horse'. He might well turn out to be (and I hope he does), but I'd rather celebrate after its proven rather than before (a bit like thinking the game is won after 89 minutes.....) All that would be true Darryl whoever had taken us over. I also understand your reaction especially in view of what could be perceived as point scoring. However it is absolutely brilliant news and none of us who held fears or doubts for the future wanted to be right, we were always desperate to be wrong. Of course you are correct that the proof of the pudding..........but this is still a time to lay aside any concerns and have a celebratory drink.

bladeshater Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 It offers promise and I'm happy for that. But as I've explained, too many clubs have been taken over and ended up regretting it later. I've named a number of them and the common denominator is that they were all ecstatic when the news was first announced. All I'm saying is let's see what happens before we can do somersaults and get the Bollinger out. As I also said - I hope it proves to be the case as I want the club to do well just as much as anyone on here.after reading that post it verified why I will never join the wednesdayite organisation whilst the likes of you remain on the board it will never move forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I just say that - if your perception is that part of my post is about point scoring - you're absolutely correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero credibility - none of them. This new fella should have absolutely nothing to do with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CageFightingOwl Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 After the sh*t I got? I think that was entirely justified. I plussed your OP and agreed with you but.. It was only a matter of time before this takeover became the Nigel show. FFS, no matter what happens at the club, you insist on being centre of attention. Unreal.

daveyboy66 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 The difference today is instead of us being run by some ten bob local millionaire we have had football men at the helm during MM's reign...he's handed over to another football man...the days of cvnts like Dave Allen running our club are over and MM fulfilled his promise...lets look forward for once instead of backwards...that means you BG..get your arse down to the ground...lets show Mamma what he's missing in France Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) A shame there is a tinge of bitterness on such a day, when we should all be happy. Nobody knows what the future holds for the club, but I am willing to bet it will be an exciting ride - hold on folks !!

Caicos Owl Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 This guy owns 2 clubs and has interest (don't know what) in another. FC Baku - played Champions League football in the group stages recently (IIRC) RC Lens - Champions League contestants late 90s-early 2000s (IIRC) Athletico Madrid - Primera League winners and champions league runners up very recently (IIRC) My point is none of these are exactly tin pot or debt ridden - so FFS everybody please try and be happy and show a bit of optimism. New owner seems the real deal. And our previous owner CERTAINLY WAS. Thank you MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS, no matter what happens at the club, you insist on being centre of attention. Unreal. I'm sorry thats your perception. Its not about that at all. I'm engaging in discussion (and yes point scoring) with people who spent a large amount of time making my life completely miserable for a good 6-8 weeks - because of my support for Milan Mandaric. So excuse me if I take some pleasure out of the fact that I got it right. (my missus tells me I'm never right) Personally I'm entirely sorry that Peter and Daz are still involved with Wednesdayite (and Nev too seeing as hes still the only person to neg the original post thanking Milan). I think that while they remain the organisation will flounder and our fans deserve a good supporters group - a depoliticised supporters group. As fans we have little to no control over how our club is run - and as has been proven today - thats probably a good thing. Going forward wouldn't it be nice if it was (as steveger has said) about Sheffield Wednesday - and not individuals who want to poke political oars into places where they perceive there might be something amiss (or even more disturbingly where they have been told something is amiss by people who have agendas??) Wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
