Yup, all we need now is for my wife to leave me or drop down dead and it's a job lot!

Frightening to think, and maybe it's me being premature doing so, but maybe, just maybe SISU are beginning to turn a corner...... Appointing Mowbray, who seems no push over, despite what I assume was a lengthy list of assurances, decent kit deal with Nike, new shop setting up feet away from the RICOH rather than a mile, an outlet at the ground for merchandise sales on match day. All we need now is a competitive team on the pitch and maybe, just maybe we'll start seeing some happier days back!

Is it possible that Nike, as part of the deal, insisted upon them running the retail side of the business? If so, I take my hat off to them!

its like were a real club again or something....

hang on...


weren't we a real club before these abosolute arselicking money driven brainless monkeyfeeders turned up ?

maybe the loss of the richoh has spurned a new business plan involving a longer term., more investment driven agenda ??

I think that JS has FINALLY realized the fact that a football club needs to be run by football people who know what they are doing and fully expect both Fisher and Waggot to be moved out asap.

Don't shoot me down in flames and I am definitely no SISU lover, but hasn't Waggott redeemed himself over the last 12 months? He brought us back to the Ricoh and it was him who seeked out Tony Mowbray when all of us thought he was too good for us. TM didn't come looking or knocking on our door. He also, against all odds, negotiated his contract for another 2 years!! Now we have a kit deal with Nike. Fisher is the tube though and needs to be removed. # pusb

Not it really he gave Pressley the long term deal and then kept him to long, brought us back from Northampton on a deal which only lasts until the end of the season and suited the council who needed a tenant to sweeten the deal for London Wasps, the deal is not with Nike it is with a company who has the licence to use the Nike name and only with the small teams. Yes he has done some good things but the bad still outweigh the good and I would still like to see the back of the pair of them, agree on Fisher though he is an oxygen thief.

Not quite Tony. Just Sport Group apparently have done so. They want to run the show

Like all Russians she is a silent assassin, so I very much doubt she said anything to anyone.

so, a virtual unanimous vote from all city fans for the removal of Fisher & Waggott,
& we eagerly await the pre season edict from JS,
let us hope that there is a positive review of thinking,
proper football persons to run the club,
full steam ahead for TM to do a JH style phoenix from the ashes

I don't want necessarily want Waggott to go, just want him as far away from the football side of things as possible. Back in Geordie land will do.
