But there hasn't been a Wednesday Chairman in my lifetime (or ever???) who has ploughed as much of his own personal wealth into the club and he seems to have learned from his mistakes in the managerial arena and gone for an experienced British manager. He's also invested in the youth system after years of neglect to get us into a much sounder position. Credit where credit is due? Depends if Bruce is a mistake...

The flying pig Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Football has evolved like everything else,not always for the best. Once a game that was played,now a business that is run. No matter what DC has or hasn’t achieved in the past or what he may achieve in the future,it must be recognised that he’s purely a businessman and not a real football man. Obviously the Premier League is the be all and end all for “Football Business” at the expense of the actual game. He should be respected for injecting millions into our club,for his agenda and also for us fans. He’s no different to any current or past chairman of any club imho.

Pitch? Tick Academy? Big Tick Big Telly? Tick (although most of time it’s advertising expensive offers) Bruce? Tick (hopefully) And then..... Sacking Grey Appointing a charlatan Appointing Blakey from On The Buses Appointing a chief executive with a terrible reputation (earned or otherwise) Alienating fans Pricing strategy on and off the pitch Player recruitment Losing the stripes Losing the badge Kit prices “My way or the highway” despite his lack of knowledge “sponsorship” skirting the rules Humongous debt The narcissism but we got to Wembley (although we didn’t turn up) so everything is ok. HaHa I’d probably have made most of those changes my self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
