quinnssweetshop Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 To be honest, there should be no mention of things football re our Chairman today. He lost a mate yesterday and we should all honour his loss. Football really means sod all at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the Leicester fans, or some of them, being very vocal in their comments about the late owner, before they got promoted to the prem and when Pearson got the sack.

robowl4life Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 All that money spent and had a bench full of youngsters. Most of it it seems to have been spunked on crocs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad and unfortunate and my thoughts go out to those involved and their families etc.... but what as this got to do with the topic of conversation? Just an excuse to climb the moral high ground?

Just like we have since the ,then, record amount ( £25m) was spent ( mostly wasted) by Francis while he 'Rebuilt' the squad he inherited and ruined. We had 2 good seasons and then the slide begun. 25 FRIGGIN years, not just the last 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a Pensioner, 68 yrs young, and I get my S/T for £ 250:00 very similar to the 'old' guys at the lane. Hey, I'm not criticising the partnership stance. But anyone that tries to pipe up and say it's the money DC alone has wasted is talking out of a usually-hidden orifice. Like you say, a partnership. When we lose, we lose hard... both fans and owner. I remember two years ago complaining of our aging recruitment policy and trying to explain to people that we were wasting money. The number of people that responded with "Who cares, it's his money not mine"... it was like trying to explain something to a particularly stubborn brick wall. Well, like you say, it's a partnership... and for every match we continue to pay the top 10% of prices in this league while getting average Championship football in return is a loss for both fans and DC. Until either the numbers in the pricing table come down or we push to the top end of the table I think all involved should be very disappointed and lament the series of decisions that have led us to this position.
