That's way above what it's actually worth! Frankly, they should be paying him to take something of their hands that is only costing them money.

Nice new avatar btw!

Ahem, check my username...give us a few more years like this and I'll be looking pretty sage-like.

I just think they want someone with cheaper travelling expenses, really. Oh and of course they think we'll embrace John Clarke as "one of our own" :facepalm:

"It’s a terrible idea (admin), as is relegation." See above for why admin will not happen under SISU. Now relegation as an "idea", there's a concept that my old Philosophy-studying Swindon Town-supporting Uni housemate would have loved getting his teeth into! It's certainly a novel concept...

"The average player in the Premier League is getting about £15-17,000" Try at least doubling that, pal!

"Who would ever have thought it would have taken Leeds so long to get back to the top flight." Any one who knows football? Leeds were an old Division 1 side throughout much of my late 70's and 80's childhood. Wolves went all the way down to the bottom flight. And why Leeds? Forest or Sheff Wed...

"When I came in..(I) tried to get Marlon King to stay as hard as I could but I couldn’t compete with Birmingham, it was as simple as that." LIE, not so simple!. He offered King the 3 years, then sent him an offer for 2 years. Only a conspiracy theorist would suggest that such a volte farce was...

"We have in our budget the room to bring in another couple of loan players, and we have had that all the way through the season to date." Not much needs saying about this one, but I'm pretty sure that by this points his pants were on fire!

What is that? This one: http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/13137-Marketing-PR-and-the-sniper-from-within.

"(AT's) stuck to his principles of playing football and the plus side is that he has had to bring youngsters in and they have performed well. So there is a plus side." Yes, he's had to bring in youngsters. Some have performed well in patches, but been inconsistent and made errors that have...

"So you are not Director of Football?" "No, I am going to be running the whole football side, whether it is the Academy, dealing with transfers, the agents, the set-up at the training ground will all fall to me." Sooo....the correct answer to that is "YES, I am in effect Director of...

Agreed on Boyden, present bunch are spineless and lacking the investigative intellect required for the job. ... But KD, have you posted on the "bot/who are you" thread yet? :thinking about:

"I couldn’t guarantee if we were sitting here with Barclays that they wouldn’t pull the plug on the business or any other business in the economic times we’re enduring at present." Are we sitting here with Barclays? Nope. ENOUGH WITH THE BANK THING!!!

"Do you think the club will go into administration before the end of the season?" "The honest way I can answer this is that I don’t think that Abramovich is going to pull out of Chelsea any time soon but if he did they would have a problem – and I’m not trying to be facetious here." You don't...

It's all-or-nothing with me. I was gonna let it lie, and say nothing, but I couldn't let it lie, so I'm weeding out every effing bit that is blatant BS. There is, as you can see, quite a lot of it... I wish Vic Reeves was still funny..

"Sisu, basically, is a bank with a load of funds in that bank from different sources....I am not an expert on hedge funds.." No, I can see that...odd that SISU keep hiring a man who openly professes his lack of understanding of the type of business that they are involved in though, isn't it...

"I used to look after security operations in Northern Ireland and it was a nightmare. But, ultimately, people did start talking and resolving their differences and it is actually quite a nice place to go now." I bet Sammy loved this one... "Yeah, my homeland used to be terrible, you wouldn't...

"From their point of view it has probably not been one of their best investments so far but it has turned around an awful lot over the last eight months." I'd say it isn't their best investment...why, they claim it's cost them 30-40m! Pretty shocking management of a club with massive potential...

"They went into this as a turn-around situation and probably expected that to happen a lot quicker than it has." They went into this claiming that they would invest in young players capable of reaching Premiership standard and buy back the stadium. Then they decided they couldn't afford that...
