    No need for that as I was just asking you a question. I can only apologise if It came across a bit condescending. I didn't mean it that way.
    I've had a season ticket for 30 years now and I go home and away just about every week. I want this to happen as much as anyone.

    He was a failure.

    Well when donald has spent 15m of his own money( never mind 150m ) and financially single handedly has kept us in the premier league for a decade come back to me with a big grin on your face

    I dont know the gist of this argument but Donald cannot get us to the premier league, never mind keep us there..he has said so himself, hence the state of limbo the whole club is currently in trying to get 'richer' people in to do that

    It's almost as bad as youve imagined mate ...
    ... incredibly well paid but cctv'd to the extreme.

    The principal is only there for around 4 weeks a year but there's a staff of around 20 including 6 permanent security guards on shifts.

    By coincidence, and on a rare visit, she's there for a masked Halloween ball and 200 pumpkins have been ordered. The gardeners have electric knives to carve them. They'll be placed around the front lawn to greet guests as they arrive.

    The whole thing is on a scale you struggle to get to grips with. I'm trying to coax Mrs Smug into, at least, visiting the property for an interview but I doubt she'll want to work for a Russian again.

    Anyway, I shouldn't be posting, on this thread, and disrupting it.

    Katerina Tikhonova?

    If it is it would explain the level of security/secrecy and I'd steer well clear.

    Well painting short as the anti christ by certain sections of safc support boils my pi55.
    Donald up until the past week was hailed as the next best thing based on nothing but selfies, social media squawking and painting faded seats. He has done a bit of financial toe cutting and that is it.
    His contribution to safc ie utterly dwarfed by short.

    They weren't painted, they were replaced but I take your point.

    2) Spot on! Probably Russia's wealthiest man and reputedly one of the nastiest.

    1) I think, though, her sister is way better looking - she doesn't look like her dad.

    Don't become rich in Russia without having a nasty side.

    Why do so many Turkish men sport moustaches?
    So that when they look in the mirror they are reminded of their mother.

    Mate, I dont know what part of my post I am slating SD. He has done a great job stabilising the club financially but we are stabilised in league 1, he has stated he cant get us to the Premier without help, that was my point, no witch hunt against him at all. But also saying he cant do this without help has put everyone (imo) at the club in an edgy position, especially for the last 2 months since the Americans showed up. This has been months of uncertainty from top to bottom waiting everyday to see who is going to sack them or keep them on. The worst bit of PR the club has done is let this out because the club will continually be in a state of limbo before anybody signs on the dotted line.

    To add, dont get me started on Ellis Fking Short
