Whitechapel Owl Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 1 minute ago, hk_owl said: Mr Chansiri will be upset this morning. Remember, he said he is a Sheffield Wednesday fan and wants to pass the club on to his son. Sure, he’s made mistakes and wasted a lot of money... Just like those other ‘fans’ who have bought season tickets and now want a refund. Don’t worry though, when Monk has a pre-season... his own players and his own back room staff it’ll be HMSPTL and this will all be forgotten! WAWAW I wonder how many people who've bought a football club don't end up regretting it? Not many I bet. It must be so exciting at first, with the fans welcoming you, and dreaming of promotions etc. Almost always ends in tears sadly. Allen certainly regrets it, I bet Richards regrets getting involved, same with Culley and Hulley. Chansiri must have been regretting it for a couple of years now. Mandaric is the only one who was sensible enough to leave before it went pear shaped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now Mandaric was a businessman... bought us for a quid, paid creditors what, £7-8m? and then sold on for £37.5m I’ll take Chansiri and his gamble anyday over the “well run club”...

It's an absolute disgrace what he has done to our grand old club. The EFL have caused us more damage by allowing Chansiri to carry on as normal than they have by deducting us points. I really do fear for the future of the club. 25% of fans behind him ?? How do you know that then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Chairman should refund all of them NOW. And he should refund everybody who doesn't want to see the crap hand he's dealt us for next season And then he should do us all a favour and leave Absolutely appalled tonight. Are you actually stamping your feet too. Why appalled tonight? You knew what we'd done all along. Chairman guilty of spending too much of his own cash and getting caught out by ridiculous rules. He's the only one to give it a go. You're a goddam drama queen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had turned up against Hull, the gamble would have paid off. One game ffs. Why do people think if we had won that game in 2016 we would be in any different position then we are now in 2020? Yes Chansiri would have been a hero at the time but he still wouldn't really know how to run a football club and it would have all unravelled by now. If you want evidence that winning that game in 2016 didnt automatically mean a golden future look at where Hull are now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know the team for next season...I could give you many other reasons but do I really need to? Untwist your knickers In the original post I separated the 2. Refund everybody now who has requested a refund for the games missed. Not in 60 days And refund anybody who was forced to buy a ridiculously early Early Bird that didn't know next season would be a complete write off Whether he's a billionaire or not (he isn't) - he has consistently told fans he has unlimited funds but the EFL won't allow him to spend them. Despite evidence (lack of investment in Academy or Infrastructure) suggesting otherwise Thankfully I didn't buy a season ticket for next year. I'd already decided I want no more of Hillsboro while he's here. Not going to fund his vanity project any more. Away games only for me. Apologies to Lanzarote Owl. I'd been on the strong stuff and my anger at the club's reputation being dragged through the mud by our arrogant Chairman, as predicted for the last few years, got the better of me.

Have to say I have had a similar attitude for years but I think I am similar to a lot of other people where frankly and sadly a line has been crossed. A form of fatigue with it all. We could run a competition of when was the lowest ebb - but its the fact this is the next one. For 15 years we sought that investor that could wake up this club from the mistakes of the past, move forward with a more solid foundation. The outcome is failure to do this. Like many i am not sure I have the energy to go through the downward slide part of this anymore, never quite sure if we have hit the bottom. So many things have been done to disengage fans from the Club. Its hardly a surprise for now many of us will take a temporary leave of absence despite the fact it will hurt me more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems we do Since my Dad died 3 years ago, my son stopped going to watch local football instead, and my daughter announcing this season she's had enough of the crap and it's just not worth the money - I've been watching us alone.

I know what you mean but the Sheffield Wednesday I started supporting are not the same Sheffield Wednesday they are now. The prices and the way the club is being run is testing my patience and loyalty to almost breaking point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
