matthefish2002 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) Think at times you are best sticking to being a fan and just concentrating on the playing side of the club. Shining a light on the dark corners of football ownership, finance, agents etc and you are likely to lose some of the magic and appeal of the beautiful game. (I just mean as an individual fan. Investigative journalists play an important role to under cover murky stuff happening) Edited January 10, 2019 by matthefish2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah sounds like it, looks like he'd have sold to anybody. Or am I missing the point? Exactly. Whoever came up with the money first had the club. Lucky for us Mamadov didn't. Still very wary of DC so will comment no further on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Milan means he did enough due dillegence to not flog us to an obvious fly by night pirate, then I believe him. However he also wanted/needed to sell the club, and make no mistake that was his priority. It’s literally impossible that Milan could ever guarantee things wouldn’t go sour with a new owner 3 years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Milan said he would sell us to a guy with the money to take the club forward. We are now up against it with FFP. because that guy has spend to much money trying to take the club forward. I would say from Milan's point of view he got it spot on.

Who'd have thought it. I bet he was in it for the money. Although to be fair, he came along at the right time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least he's been to Sheffield. Imagine a German Chancellor or French President, for instance, had never visited one of their major cities - and not just while in office.

scram Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 On 10/01/2019 at 07:13, RUMBELOWS91 said: What makes you say that Scram? I'm not a big reader tbh but I really enjoyed it for the most part (some of it was a bit self indulgent I thought, but I could get passed that) Would you say it's inaccurate, or paints agents in a better light than it should maybe? It's not so much the technical detail - it's the author's total narcissism that put me off He makes out that he invented the game! Then put it back on a stable path whenever it veered off You'd honestly get the impression that football would have ceased to exist were it not for him Pity really because as you say - there is a story in there about deals, agents and the dark arts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
