Kiwi Owl Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 Maybe the negative fans would be happy, they wouldn’t be able to moan that things are too expensive. Wow!!! £52 match day tickets from the opening game of the season vs Bristol City all those years ago Expensive tickets gets you quality players. Didn't realise expensive tickets gets you in severe financial trouble. Disgusting comment to say given we've had some of the most expensive, if not, the most expensive match day tickets going for a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellsview Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 I don’t say this lightly, but I’m wondering if things are getting to DC to such an extent that his well-being and mental health are starting to suffer? Look at how he’s conducted himself in recent press conferences, how he’s responded to supporter emails and we now have the statement from yesterday. It’s totally irrational and erratic behaviour.

He has had previous for this, I remember his outburst in 2018 when fans were unhappy with Jos Luhakay. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/46630885 Think this was the conference that we found out he only signed Jordan Rhodes because 'the fans' wanted him 🤐 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said on here before that when you deal with business owners then understanding their character and modus operandi is half the challenge. I also deal with some former Chief Execs, who I suspect were nightmares to work for in their prime years. So you have that, plus the Thai cultural side plus he has lived an entitled life which my experience generates some right obnoxious twats. I do think the cashflow problems are genuine and with that brings a further major pressure that exacerbates these characteristics 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically I should have tapped up the client i saw yesterday who could have written a cheque to cover it. He would eat Chansiri for breakfast business acumen wise saying that. But doing the WTID stuff I quickly realised how futile it would be and how wrong it would be to ask fans to "invest" into a black hole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoylandOwl Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 So, there’s a social media picture going round suggesting it’s Chansiri responding to a fan and ‘DC’ says something along the line of his comments being taken out of context and he never asked for fans money. If it is him. Then I’d expect a statement coming out soon to let us know what he ‘really’ said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said in pub last night that I don't trust the star or radio sheff one bit and that it wouldn't surprise me if his broken English and some star story creation hasn't caused this. I doubt very much he sought an exclusive chat with the star and even more so that he wanted two million from fans. More a general point that cashflow has been tight and fans putting it in would sort it, not that he was requesting it. He should away from media, whether it's official or as I suspect a chat with a journo completely spun out of context. If you read the whole 'article' it just sounds like DC trying to explain he's owed money and it's causing problems. My criticism of DC is probably that he goes off on a tangent when he's better of just keeping quiet. Just my take on it, had our local media, like vultures. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never forget the fans forum a few years ago where the journo's totally took out of context the part where he mentioned selling the club and ran with false headlines stating the club was up for sale, unfortunately a large percentage of numpties took it as read, it's the old adage of repeating a lie enough times and it becomes the truth, this may be why DC asked for a translator he could seak in his native language and not have his words twisted. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've often felt a lot of what he says is lost in translation a bit. Playing fast and loose with your tax bill is a hiding to nothing (as we almost found out to our cost), but I just couldn't see DC sacking Xisco and appointing a whole new (and presumably fairly costly) management team to then not have the cash to pay the players. Doesn't make any sense. What seems more likely is that a chunk of cash was due and wasn't paid at the agreed point. Whether or not that was the fake yank is anyone's guess... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok the fact the EFL published the embargo on its website meant this was out of the Clubs hands (as to whether it was made public or not) The interview to the media was ill founded in what he said. Ok not to say there was a temporary cash flow issue which can hopefully be resolved quickly - as it appears was - but the whole section of the interview about the fans stumping up cash, the threat about player wages, if you don't assist then don't blame me when the club is in the National League.

If it can happen once it can happen again. And if it’s none of our business then you don’t ask the supporters to stump up £2 million - he made it our business and because of what he said there are now even more supporters questioning his running of the club. The only person to blame for all of this and who has lost face because of it is DC himself, not supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarrySpeakup Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 Has he said he’s received £2m? How do we know it wasn’t £20m and we are OK for 10 months and the £2m he was asking for was just for this month until he got his money 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelters Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 It’s all very odd. Receiving £2m of cash in one month is a massive loan, high interest rate or both. I do think he’s under pressure and this might not be the last we’ve heard of this, but better to take the positives and just breathe a sigh of relief for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheExile Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 We have seen Chansiri talk like this before on sky and he’s just as capable of r commenting to the press when triggered and possibly regretting it afterwards. If there’s a hint of not being able to pay a tax bill and he tells the press they will be all over it. He’s clearly someone who wears his heart on his sleeve and often misunderstood in that regard but recently what he’s been coming out with isn’t what a leader of any organisation would and it causes chaos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
