That's a good point, fair enough. I understand what your saying and agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 You reach a point where you end up thinking: "he's never going to learn, is he..?!" I think my main concern is that, the worse we get, the more he will convince himself that he's in the right and everyone else is wrong. It's like the Mad King. It's the only explanation for the continual f*ckwittery. He's reportedly spent around 350 million and bar the first two seasons where it seems he got very much lucky, we have progressively got worse and worse. The only realistic outcome is another relegation, whether that's this season or the next. A sane, rational person would look at that and think: "this isn't working. I need to change tact. What I'm I paying these advisers for?" Instead, it is the opposite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofbert2 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 It’s already been noted that the bloke has spent around 300m quid. Say he cut his losses at half and wanted out for 150m. Who will pay 150m right now for a club outside the Premier League in the midst of a global pandemic? I can’t see it. Maybe I’m daft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
