1) what have I accused him of? 
 

2) A sad state of affairs when fans would welcome legal action against fellow supporters.

1. Calling him a fraud in respect of how he runs the club and saying you wouldn't be surprised if he had commuted actual fraud.

 

2. Who said that? Just think it's worth a read and take care posting stuff. Don't want this site dragged into anything.

Not sure you can claim they've got bollocks when they won't even say who they are. 

This 100%.  When this is over and other folk have got into trouble with the club or police for doing what they've incited them to do, then maybe getting carried away and doing worse, this lot will slink back to their seats knowing that they're completely safe and anonymous.  Cowards.

MK, would it be fair to say though that without him there may not be a Club for us to support?

There would not be the current entity Sheffield Wednesday Football Club Limited to support no.

I would be 99.9% certain that there would be The Wednesday FC for us to shift our allegiance too. Like Bury did and a few others over the years.

Club to me is a hell of a lot more than the person who owns the shares that owns the golden share with the EFL.

And Chansiri will never own the spirit of the Club, the thing that is inside us

This is the one thing you should probably listen to me wholeheartedly on, m'lud.

Does anyone know if there's a current owner of 'The Wednesday FC" name? Would it still be the club?

And is the phoenixed Wednesday CC still going?

Not sure personally.  156 years of tradition down the pan would likely kill the 'spirit' for many. 

Hope it never comes to that.

See, there actually is a big difference.

Southgate pretending to be a football manager isn't a crime, so there's no legal defamation when I call him a fraud.

This isn't the same as the accusations that DC is a fraud or has potentially committed fraudulent acts as owner of swfc, as alluded to above, either of which are crimes and to accuse someone of committing them is defamatory (either slander or possibly libel) which in itself leaves you open to criminal or civil proceedings.

But you don't lose that history. Ok DC technically owns it, but it's an intangible asset really. A new entity effectively inherits it.

I get that for some that it would be the end of the road, I accept it would never be the same, but look at Bury as your recent example of a club re-born

Either you’ve misunderstood or you’re being deliberately obtuse.

Lets be honest DC is not the devil incarnate 

Equally if you consider his time running the Club has been successful and moved us forward, then I think you are as deluded as the protesters 

 

He's moved us significantly forward from where we would be right now if he hadn't bought the club

I don't mind people protesting, it's their right to. My only objection to tonight was that it was done in the middle of the game, when we were getting some momentum at that point. It's all well and good people saying you can not support the chairman but support the team. Well how is it supporting the team if you're stopping them playing?

The Sky cameras were there, and while it obviously got some airtime and was discussed on the programme so I'm told, the group got what they wanted I would assume. Exposure. But could they not have done it pre game? As the players were coming out? The cameras were on then, there's no danger of interrupting a pen, or whatever is happening in the match. I think from the initial boos the actions got, from much of the crowd spoke more about the timing of it, than the act itself. 

I think his position is becoming more untenable by the game now, no matter what happens, it felt tonight a little like the tide is turning. Although, it has to be said the chants aimed at DC were louder on Saturday than they were tonight.

For the avoidance of doubt I'm happy for Chansiri to sell up to whoever has the funds to run the club in the manner that matches the fans' expectations 

For the avoidance of doubt I would be happy for Chansiri to continue owning the Club if I could see a semblance of a long term plan rather than the awful scattergun approach we see. Plus if he totally re-thought ticket pricing. It was actually cheaper to go to the Etihad, including the train fare over there, to watch Champions League football

Yeah that is a fair comparison, billionaire owned dripping in PL cash Man City

Are there any ardent DC supporters left other than AB?

Was talking to a bloke in front who was booing the protest last night, he wants him out too but he didn't agree with stopping play. This is why i didn't get involved in the end, applauded those willing to highlight the issue to a wider audience mind and joined in with the chants

Is anyone really an ardent supporter of any club custodian? Common myth Popular opinion seems to be that Milan was one of the best custodians the club has ever had, but every single fan was happy to drop him like a stone when Mammadov rocked up.

Those of us that don't want DC forced out aren't necessarily ardent supporters, merely realists who see no viable alternative on the horizon and have had our fill of Geoff Sheard and every other chancer who fancies owning a football club. 

Owners can be funny, look at Udders, not sure what the new owners expect, but Colin was probably doing as well as anyone could with the players available, was popular with the fans and they've sacked him...

I think the feeling round here on Colin was that he was only ever kept on this summer to give them time to find the right long-term manager (if there is such a thing) whilst all the takeover stuff was going on. Now that they have presumably identified their long-term manager they’ve asked him to step aside and he’s agreed. 
 

I suppose in that way Milan was similar to Colin, we knew he wasn’t here for the long haul. He’d just picked us up in a shit situation, straightened us out and was waiting to move us on to the person he thought could take us to that next level. Part of his success I think was managing expectation. DC seems to take the opposite approach.

Warnock's got as he responded to criticism about the start by highlighting he wasn't happy with players being sold and not replaced, that happened a couple of weeks ago and i'd guess it was that which accelerated his departure.

@Otto_Man us fans never know who is potentially on the horizon. The question should be are you happy with the running of the club, if the answer is no then you should apply pressure on him in whatever way you feel is right, if that's not tennis ball then fine but what isn't helpful is for people to try and shout those down that clearly care enough to do something.

You hero, in the future there will be books written about your contribution.

I understand that - but even the most ardent supporters of Chansiri must question some of the ticket prices 

I question the prices, I find them abhorrent but I find the cost of most things abhorrent at the minute.

 

City struggle to fill the Etihad with their own fans for the CL even with the discount prices, my niece was 17 last month and is a a City "fan" I'm shelling out for the 3rd group game for her birthday

Will you be following in your dads footsteps and presenting the next owner with a bottle of Hendos?

Probably not mate, only bothered about forcing them out not welcoming them in.

Ha, always the way with ***** like you. Looking at others and judging because they’re unhappy with their own little sad existence 😉
