Probably does a bit; the point is we back the stance, and i doubt it will last as long as the fergie one. Did Alex ferguson worry about looking silly too? i doubt it
it probably does look petty form the outside but i repeat, imagine if that deal had collapsed and we had missed out on promotion. i believe this situation would have kicked off a lot more. he was seen as a key signing in the run in and a great investment for the future. this was a large sum of money and the bbc totally scuppered the deal on late kick off if i remember correctly. if mcnally is being petty, so too are the beeb who only have to issue an apology to end the blackout. put the boot on the the other foot - would you be happy if your club accepted a news corporation leaking a big transfer story which wasn't completed, therefore ruining any deal? i suspect not... its great to see the club not just rolling over and having its belly tickled anymore. isn't it interesting that your club has a wet blanket of a CEO in clegg and are struggling, much like we did when we had our equally-rubbish neil 'doomcaster' doncaster. another case of 'get it right off the pitch in order to get it right on the pitch'.
I never had you down as a Drama Queen - Supers! Just one point on Clegg, I think you will find that Clegg threatened to report Swansea to the Premier League for failing to pay us for the loan of Priskin. Guess what! The cheque was soon in the post a few days later.
Didn't realize Clegg was that powerful! At the time of the loan, both clubs were in the Football League! Why would the Premier League need to be informed?
Did we really need CMS that badly?, it does seem a bit diva ish and besides Barry Fry was always going to try and swindle us anyway..... I prefer the strikers we brought in instead.... Maybe if CMS signed for us Jacko wouldn t have played against Pompy and we stayed down......... Its all unwanted baggage in the end and we need to stop these stupid distractions..
It's something that we should forget about and as you say we may not have gone up had we signed him. This ban on the bbc won't change things on the pitch as long as we continue playing well. Yes, there's less coverage of Norwich but there's always sky etc. Its also quite nice for the team if the media isn't bugging them.
First of all by not talking to the Beeb you are breaking broadcasting contracts made with the Premiership. Secondly you have won **** all so there it is!
We are doing everything we are contractually obliged to do. Just not the non contractual stuff such as interviews before the match. How about the league 1 trophy, we won that and runners up and winners in the championship. What have you won in the last 10 years. O yeah that's right, nothing!
For some reason I thought it was dion who blew open the cms bid? Nice moan about being perceived as a moany club...
