owlinexile Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Wow. We had to go to the other end of the world (I wonder if we considered 200 possible chairmen) but we managed to find one more inept than Dave Allen and his cabal of old men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Bonvin Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Most normal dads buy their kids the latest version of Football Manager for Christmas or birthdays. But oh no, our chairman goes one better and let’s his kid ******** about with a real football club, one of the most historic names in the history of the game. And neither of them have got the slightest clue. Unbelievable. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lime Tree Heros Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Don't subscribe to the Athletic, so thanks for posting the full article. Absolutely deplorable situation to be in, coupled with a feeling of absolute frustration as there seems no way out or foreseeable end to the situation.

I can think of lots and lots of other failing by chancer too. He’s a car crash of a chairman who could never be a fit and proper person to run any business never mind a football club. I’m starting to think the only way to get rid of him would be for him to actually do something illegal and get banged up. But then again that probably wouldn’t mean he’d have to sell up would it…. He’d probably run us further into the ground via a burner phone and laptop in his cell. Our very own version of H as it were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Excellent article, lots of extra stuff in here - and I think this shows the scale of the problem. Chansiri is losing £1.5 million per month due to his (and his son's!) decisions and management style. Only way they can turn around this is by hiring a proper management structure and letting them have control of the business. But with his money at stake and his wounded pride, does he have the sense to listen to anyone? What happens if he pulls the plug on all the debts? Does he realise how sour things have turned in S6? He'll soon find out first time he returns to face the fans if not. Really concerning - don't think any prospective buyer is going to want to plug a £50 million plus hole in the Chansiri family finances.... could be getting into death of the football club territory in a few years if this continues. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post owls maniac Posted May 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 8, 2021 Private ownership of football clubs is an absolute joke. One man can destroy a community asset which is invaluable for thousands of people. It’s totally absurd. 12 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Just confirms how incompetent Chancer is. The EFL need to get involved to protect our existence. He's not a fit and proper person to run a club in my view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could do a Brighton and flog the ground to clear some of the debts. It’s scandalous that one individual has the power to do this. Time for proper regulation to safeguard football clubs as vital community assets and not standard businesses. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Django Posted May 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 8, 2021 Things DC needs to do 1. Apologise for this season 2. Pay his bills 3. Give refunds to all who want them 4. Announce season tickets with cheapest price on kop no more than £350 5. Give Darren Moore the keys 6. Hire a chief exec 7.

Emerson Thome Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Also, more of a sidenote, but interesting to hear about Paixao in a different light. Other than just a bogeymen for the fans. Seems that rather than a benign influence, he's just another baffled person unable to persuade the Chairman to put a proper business strategy in place. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is expected that some players will see their weekly wages drop by as much as 50 per cent next season.
