sonofbert2 32,851 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 I have more confidence and belief in the leadership and direction of this great, but not that big, club than ever! In DC and GM I trust! 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Spent 100s millions Said most fans are amazing, but a small minority always negative - spooked a sponsor with online negativity Would be happy to sell shares to fans if they want to buy them I agree, thats how ive read into it too 1 Link to post Share on other sites

SiJ 50,385 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Sad thing is if he actually listened and channelled his investment properly, then we would probably do pretty well and he might have had achieved his aim of promotion. You can have all the money in the world, but it means very little without a proper structure and strategy. Like trying to build a luxury mansion when the foundation is quick sand. 4 2 Link to post Share on other sites
gurujuan 13,422 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 I have to say I’m disappointed with all that. Yes he’s cleared up a few aspects regarding the ground and finances, but for me, that really wasn’t what I needed to hear. There seemed little or nothing about the way forward, or even for the here and now. There are some things that are out of his hands for the moment, but there are plenty of things he can effect now. Hell I don’t even mind that he sticks with Monk, if only he’d insist that the manager at least tries to play attacking entertaining football. We are so dire, when it comes to tactics, it’s almost embarrassing 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Bluesteel 15,838 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 It was concerning if it’s true he didn’t like Bruce’s style from afar. Given he was a great man manager and exactly what we have needed. If we had a Bruce in 2015 we’d have gone up 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
fitz44 74 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Having read this entire thread, I think it might actually be the majority of fans who have the mindset to see the negatives in everything he says. Many things, due to his poor command of English, can be interpreted more than one way, but most seem to jump to the negative conclusion. Whatever your thoughts on him, he's keeping us afloat and, at the moment, that's the most important thing. 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites

PAY UP It’s an answer he’s used time and time again, now it’s become his default for any concerns regarding the stadium sale too. In a city like Sheffield playing a game of who’s got the bigger bank balance with fans is beyond cruel. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post bazapeps 618 Posted November 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2020 I wonder what is more likely to put off sponsors: - an owner that clearly doesn’t know how to run a football club - EFL charges and points deductions - bizarre and embarrassing rambles from the owner to the press or - Gary from Shire green on Twitter disagreeing with the formation played at the weekend 8 1 1 7 Link to post Share on other sites

Why not take him at his word you have the connections, the right personality, the high tec knowledge, you know about ticket pricing, points, deductions, embargoes, and selling stadiums etc etc You could bring it all together or at least get the ball rolling. Didn't I tell you many years ago that you are destined to be a chairman of the club? Chairman Neil sounds good. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
