He's definitely got a voice for the radio, they might offer him a job

I was thinking the other day that we’ve heard very little from Doug recently (a good thing, generally)

Why’s that a good thing?

Weren’t we (as a fan base) moaning that SISU barely communicated via these kinds of channels way back when?

I mean that it’s generally a good sign when you don’t need the owner to be weighing in on various off-the-pitch issues and all the focus is on the players instead.

Is he doing it for anything in particular or just an anniversary chat?

Currently in French alps on a birthday bash

Looking to get structure and processes right to achieve goals

Playoffs are the target. We're in a position to kick on and 6th is achievable if we keep doing what we're doing. Great effort from everyone to get us into this position - all we could have asked.

Really enjoying ownership.

Not much else really

Yep, a non-event really. Talksport Listen Again will be available after the show, he was on at around 11:40am, so that's 100 mins into the show.

Yeah again what he says he says we'll. Wasn't asked anything about Jan Window by Jim so nothing on transfer front.
But sounded upbeat all in all.

Not great PR advertising that, cost of living crisis and Doug King trying to justify charging increased prices across the board, silly vouchers, and he advertises he’s in the French Alps…. Probably prancing along to his silly song.

Interesting that the song began being sung again and Millwall. We've been good ever since.

Wasn’t a complaint, Doug King always says he’s a businessman so surely a bit of PR comes into his thinking with increased prices across the board. He name dropped skiing in the alps for a friends birthday which is as silver spoon as it gets!

Still reads like criticism to me ….

I don’t see any correlation between season ticket prices and King attending a mates birthday party in the Alps.

Tabloid piss for half wits, (no offence to those who listen to it intended, well, maybe a little bit).

Haha! I thought Mr.Panda meant he was in the French Alps not King

Not at all surprising to learn that a talksport interview was as superficial as ever.

I’ve been to the Alps twice and we didn’t even have spoons in Hillfields growing up.

Yes, the cooling sea breezes are a very welcome relief from the oppressive heat of the midday sun.
