I'm not sure whether an apostrophe is needed or not. Just said it for the joke.
What was it?

Well that's certainly put me in my place.
The other poster said "Donald said he hopes that if we get success that they'll do a little bit more."
Im confused now tbh, I didn't hear Donald say 'a little bit more' or a deafening silence ...
... I thought it was a bit more firepower if we have a little more success.
If only I could get to a doctor for a hearing test ...
... I'm so jealous of these people who hear things I don't.
If you haven't heard it, he actually said:
'My preference is to stay, hold on to the club and as we become successful, talk to the guys who've invested since we move in (FPP) and say 'can we have a bit more firepower once we get to the Championship?' - That was the plan.'
Then
'If the fans said to me tomorrow 'stay', and the guys from America would completely engage - which I would hope they would if we could get a little bit more success - then I'd love to stay and Charlie would love to stay.'
Donald said, just in the last few days, that FPP are interested in further involvement ...
... perhaps my hearing is better than yours.
He was complaining about people pointing out mistakes, so in jest I pointed out one of his. The fact that I wasnt sure whether his use of grammar was correct or not, it didn't stop me.What was it?
I'm not sure what you're arguing with me for. I transcribed Donald's words, I didn't just paraphrase them, I transcribed them over multiple listens:
https://play.acast.com/s/footballpreviewshow/c1fe7229-4dff-421f-b09e-e0124396d55f
starting at 26mins and 27:15 you will hear the two FPP related comments.
He said exactly what I quoted here:
So no, he didn't say what you thought he said
Just accept you mis-remembered. What kind of man cannot accept when they're demonstrably wrong? I just quoted Donald, I didn't say anything else, just that your recollection was inaccurate. For that I earned a load of absolute bullshit about how I don't want FPP at the club because I dared to point out that you're wrong.

Seriously, you're treating this forum like Crown Court despite continually misquoting me, missing the point and answering oranges with apples.
You're coming across as obsessive tbh.
You promised the board you'd stop jumping on my posts yet here you are again with your manic agenda.
Give it a rest man.
No. Absolutely not while you continue to talk about me as if I'm not here and imply or outright say all kinds of things. I'll respond as and when I please to that, just as anyone else would.
I haven't 'misquoted you' at all, I've literally hit 'quote' on your post so please explain what the **** you are on about. It's not crown court to point out someone is wrong.
You promised the board you'd stop jumping on my posts.
On Wednesday I posted something that had absolutely nothing to do with you in any way.
Yet you couldn't resist jumping on it and keeping it up for days.
You're coming across as obsessed and as if you can't exist without me.
Just go away and stop focusing on me.

Shorthand: I'll never admit that I misquoted someone so I'll just keep having a dig at you and hope everyone forgets the point he was making. Classic smug, seen you do it to me and others countless times. It's admirable in a way, watching someone manipulate conversations away from their weakness with absolutely no shame, even though their peers and friends can see them arguing the toss because they can't admit when they've been caught out.
I don't really care what I said, I take it all back. I was wrong to say that because I overestimated your capacity to be reasonable. You can stop trying to police me now.
But those quotes do confirm that FPP are interested in further involvement. We just need to be in the championship unless of course they get the club by default.

Can't be arsed to read that, seriously.
This boils down to you being willing to bore everyone to death by drawing me into a circle of semantics, and nuances of grammar, to prove me fundamentally wrong.
Seriously you need to get a grip.
Stop following me around ffs, you've been doing it for months and its really tedious.
They don't though. They confirm that he hopes it. They are two different things.
'My preference is to stay, hold on to the club and as we become successful, talk to the guys who've invested since we move in (FPP) and say 'can we have a bit more firepower once we get to the Championship?' - That was the plan.'
I suppose it depends how you interpret 'that was the plan', I take that to mean that FPP intend to invest when we get back into the championship.
Well... I interpret it as what he said, that the plan was that he'd go back and ask them if they'd give him some more money if we got to the championship.
The point is that smug said that Donald said in the last few days that FPP are interested in further involvement. I actually think they may be, but Donald didn't say that. Is it wrong to point that out when it's being used as a stick to attack me and other posters? In my eyes no but maybe you disagree mate. I doubt it though, most people here are reasonable.
We've entered onto one of your never ending circular arguments so I'll just say that I don't agree with your interpretation of what Donald said and agree to disagree.
