Sorry fella, with massive respect to a fellow fan of football, this will end badly. Trust me, there is nothing that you have seen on here that is exaggerated. The man is dangerous and I fear for you as a club, I really do. If you doubt us, look at the view of the Watford fans where he was before he came here. I was one, and I freely admit it, that thought it was sour grapes - it wasn’t. Our owner, far from a stupid man and, a self made billionaire, was fooled by him. I have not looked at this yet, but I am ‘ intrigued ‘ by the companies that MA has / had, that are football related.

When Paul Cook departs, and it is a when not an If, it would not surprise me in the least if he appoints himself interim manager.

I had to watch that twice, just to be sure my eyes were not playing tricks on me. I am actually concerned about his mental health, that is simply not normal behavior for a CEO of a football club.

Don’t know the truth of it but I thought SC went on holiday thinking they were done deals only to find that the club had attempted to re-negotiate in his absence and both deals collapsed. Happy to be corrected.

I am sure this has been asked previously,but my 21 year old son died on Monday in an accident. He was an SC holder for 10 years and loved the club. Is there anywhere that I can scatter his ashes when the time comes or is there any area where a memorial plack can be put up?

Good luck to him. Wasn’t going to get much of a sniff at Chelsea this season.

The good human test will also be part of that process.

Well, that is going to go down well. Words fail me.

I think if this was boxing the fight would have been stopped. Gregor is treading on very thin ice.

I think it is their chairman rather than their owner. FFP is not something that I am a fan of for a number of reasons, but to have different rules from country to country makes an absolute mockery of what, already, is a shambles.

Exactly. I am no @Mr Popodopolous but I do not get it.

Yes, that is of deep concern.

Not jealous at all - Barbados is a fantastic place.

Yes, all valid points. I would think that the problem Cook MAY have is players foisted on him, but probably has the strength to face that up with that nice Mr Ashton. On a separate point I hear that he will be leading the team out at very home game to ‘Simply the best’ by Tina Turner playing over the PA system.

As I have said before in this thread it is more than a little disappointing that our owner and our chairman did not spot all of his character traits much earlier. It would appear that he is now utterly out of control and this is possibly due to his close relationship with ITFC’s new owners. If I am Paul Cook I am applying for every vacancy that comes up.

Hope he makes a full and speedy recovery

I agree. I would never want to see any club disappear. We all have our rivals and we can detest them but football clubs are a key part of society.

You can just sense that they are going to get away with this.

This is utterly irrelevant. There is no way that they will progress.

Also worth noting that whatever 80% equals, you still pay tax and N.I. on it.

Utter nonsense as usual from that rag

Don’t know about that mate, but this is more sinister than it appears. IMHO. There is much more too this

Don’t know fella, but it seems strange to me that the source is not being discussed by the government or the media - there is more to this.

Maybe I have missed something, but none of this started because some Chinese chap had some bat soup, there is much more to this.

Not a chance.
