Doug King deserves a lot of credit. Firstly for wrestling the club out of SISU’s hands who were starting to look like they’d never take the hint and finally fuck off.
Secondly for taking the tough decision and sacking Robins. I still love Robins and consider him a club legend but the fact is he’d took us as far as he could and had run out of ideas.
Thirdly for bringing Lampard to the club, I’ll admit it again, I was underwhelmed by the appointment at the time but he played a blinder bringing him here.
Fourthly. Uniting the club and ground, something I always thought would take a promotion to the premier league windfall to make happen but he’s shown otherwise.
Lastly, promotion to the premier league with games to spare.
He’s achieved a lot for an owner in a short period of time and he deserves all the plaudits for that.
I don’t know what next season will bring other than it’s going to be tough but he’s been pivotal in putting us in the privileged position where we’re going to find out.
