    Without wanting to state the bleedin' obvious - this business model takes the club in one direction only. Forget about managerial changes; going forward, it won't matter who coaches the team.

    The excrement has really hit the fan, the HDM banning is petty and the Allam's hate scrutiny of their actions - nobody tells us how to run a football club and collect interest on our debts. Just what we need with 8 games of the season left.

    If pappa doesn’t want to sell, I don’t understand why he hasn’t sorted this whole debacle out. It makes no sense

    McCann not innocent in this either, he stood by and watch toxic jnr rip his squad apart and does **** all, no wonder pervious managers with some sense of honour walked.

    Could've had £130m but got too greedy. They won't even get 10% of that at this rate.


    Business geniuses? **** off you abhorrent subhuman scumbags.

    I'm done with this club.

    The Allams can die whenever they want, as long as they leave the club for those who just want to watch good football.

    Surley a regular crowd of 13-18000 and a competitive championship club. I’m not saying top 2 material but top 12ish. Happy squad etc must be an easier sell.

    We don't need a '**** show at the **** factory' when we have entered the full on relegation battle, really do we.

    Let’s be honest, this is another disgrace to add to the Allam’s reign. In their response they preach about confidentiality, yet they inadvertently or not have released Kevin Stewart and Eric Lichaj’s contractual details. The public shaming of Geoff Bielby is another shocker. None of the info is a shock to anyone, but I think the clubs release will do more PR damage than what The Athletic proposed.

    On Saturday it was obvious that the club were becoming a positivity spinner, both from the club commentary and McCann’s comments. This is confirmation yet again that they cannot handle the truth. Nobody tells them how to run their business don’t forget!

    We are only heading one way. Allam Out.

    I now actively want us to be relegated. They need to be ****ed over as much as possible for the good of the club in the long term.

    Yes as I suggested on Twitter the remarkable bit of this is they've probably released more detail than The Athletic was proposing to.

    That was my reaction too.
    What a **** situation for supporters to be in.
    The main thing has to be 'whatever it takes to ensure the Allam twats are finally out of our club, and for good'
