Crikey I think it was a Nissan - did they do something called the Bluebird. Anyway it was an upgrade - said mate had previously worked at Fletchers, he had one of the bread vans that used to deliver around the estates. So we used to get lifts in that, free left over buns and a cracking free parking space. He had gotten a new job - which may have been related to the fact he was delivering slightly more than buns to a bored housewife on some rough estate in Dingle land, which was fine until the aggressive husband found out. A Fletchers van was not a quick getaway choice

I did go to that game, but don't recall the daffodils for Watson. I do recall my mate had a new company car which he drove like an idiot. We got back to High Green not much later than we would have done from Hillsborough

And yes I probably give Reesh a bit of leverage, do you want to know why ? When I was going thru a shit time, up in Sheffield watching my Mum have multiple seizures, lay unconscious for 10 days withering in front of us, caused by said aggressive tumour, he was messaging me, asking how I was, did I need to escape. Actions speak louder than words, but perhaps understand that your choice of words should not be used glibbly

Yes it rattled my cage, because you used the words charlatan, stain and tumour to describe our owner. Chansiri has made mistakes, I have been critical of some of them, but I have never felt the need to make it personal like that. What can I ask does it add, why the insult, why the lack of any respect or understanding to the person funding the club to the tune of 10m per year. And yes I disliked the word tumour. I just hope you never have to witness a loved one suffer from an aggressive form thereof. And you defend yourself by shouting "Sir sir look at him sir". Take responsibility for what you say and how you say it is perhaps the moral here.

Tee, I will always respect your opinion and a good chunk of the last page or so was probably instigated by me commenting on something I saw on X. But it rattled my cage because that is not debate by some Wednesday fans, it is sheer hatred displayed against the owner using terminology that is a little bit close to home for me and many others. I am more annoyed with myself getting wound up by it, but the solution is easy I just blocked him on there.

I still prefer the idea of a loss cap, so you can make losses of say 20% of turnover So if revenue is 200m, your spend cap is 240m. Your loss limit is 40m. If you only lose 20m one season, you can roll that forward to the next plus the 40m But any shareholder loans to fund losses have to be converted to equity.

Because Hargreaves was shown up to be a total wanker I readily expect a few to be banned as a result
-
and Geoff if you think people are uptight can I suggest you read the Bricat tribute thread and the posts from Bellsview in the last couple of days
-
It takes a lot to rattle my cage, but I will 100% call out odious shits like Geoff
-
I should copy the tweet from Geoff - calling Chansiri "a tumour" Fuck off Geoff you **** - most of us know people who have died of cancer, we have had a respected poster on here talking about the stress of the last few weeks in his life. That language is disgusting and I will call you out on it
-
The only half decent thing is that Hargreaves on Stalk got made to look an even bigger fool (I appreciate that was a very high bar anyway). It's daft when people try and drive a them and us agenda, us fence sitters have tended to move more towards supporting Chansiri, not there way. I still stand by the one point, if you were trying to force him out what was YOUR plan to replace the funding. The shrug of shoulders and believing AN Other would step up had zero credibility

Oakham is hardly chav central - in fact quite a posh school there. But I guess every small town needs it idiot. Social media is the worst best invention really.

The RHolmesfield_owl impact

You have certainly got the gig next week. Even if you don't put "fat lady sings" or "mathematical certainty" into the thread title my first post will.

That was attention seeking by the parent at its worst. My main observation from that video is how Chansiri seems to have aged. I mean I always joke about my real age being 20 years lower than my Wednesday age - being owner must be exponential. I actually think it would be good for his wellbeing if he can pass on the Club
-
Anyway 11 too many !
-
Yep it is 11 - I always forget that the first time back in the early 2000's was only 2 seasons. Just felt like 3 !
-
I will happily stand corrected, it was a quick tally in my head 5 between 75/76 to 79/80 for sure Then I try and blank the rest
