    It appears jck has an inside track to the negotiations. At least he thinks he does!!!

    There's no question in my mind that Tan is playing games. I reckon he'll spin the reason for the delay onto Erol and that plan is clearly working in some quarters as evidenced by our resident wum. Since it's Tan that is demanding the final say, he could have started negotiating five weeks before the end of the season.

    I just wonder if the delay is a plan to get his own man from Denmark in as Erol is probably not the sycophant that Tan wants. To hell with the fact that Erol has improved our position under ridiculous circumstances and spent a year getting to know the Championship and the squad. Instead, let's have another stab in the dark with a complete novice at this level because as Brizzle suggested, he's a yes man.
    I really am sorry to say it and I.know the usual, reasonable arguments will be made, but I'm afraid that history now clearly shows that any incoming manager will be hamstrung while Tan is here. Unfortunately, what we can do about it is beyond my level of creativity and we're probably stuck with him.
    The man has messed with my club and I don't like it.
    While he'll continue to refer to the millions invested, he'd do well to remember that without the Bluebird fans, he'd have had nothing to invest in and the owners of every club should have that in mind.

    Apologies for repeating much of what has already been said.

    He's unquestionably a wum and unfortunately we continue to be his oxygen.

    I gave him a wiff of O2 a week or so back, but turned the valve off quite quickly. A setting I plan to leave to it on.

    Nothing is brewing. If fans want to make decisions and run the club they should buy it but until they do Tan owns the club and he will make the decisions. Tan has given Bulut more than enough time and will certainly have other options. There are a lot more managers looking for a job in the championship than there are clubs with a vacancy. Bulut has had one year so another three years would get him a 4 year contract, who the hell gets a 4 year contract in the championship when halfway through one season half the managers had been sacked. I would not be suprised if Tan got rid of Bulut and Dalman and WoL.

    The fans pay to watch a football game, they will all moan and moan but they still go to games. The fans have stopped buying season tickets, not at all they get a cheaper deal and for most it is all they have to look forward to all week. During covid we watched games without fans, try telling every fan to stop going to the games and leave the ground empty then you will see the majority will go no matter what, it is an empty threat..

    Exactly, comments like this are worthless but at least they require little thought or imagination. Evolution seems to have passed a few people so they lack logical responses that actually have some connection to football on a football forum. I had to scroll past two pages of everyone talking about the weather, and pages of silly remarks like yours with no value. This is a small group who all agree with each other and post exactly the same thing every time. I look at every forum and get a much better perspective and balanced view from that. No one here agrees with me but that is fine but it is not as one sided as you would like to think because others watched last season and it was some of the worst football we have seen. I can tell you that we will have a manager and will wait for the premier league to allow players to leave on loan rather than rushing to get tom dick and harry who have already been dumped.

    Cling had his luds removed some time ago. He was totally de-ludded.
    Seems there is another poster with a similar affliction. Tragic. Hope he keeps taking the medicine and his luds come back.
    (Might need to check the spelling.<whistle>)

    I have reservations (personal not native American) as to whether the poster I believe you refer to ever had any luds in the first place. The existence of a working brain is also doubtful.

    Has any medicine ever been developed which might encourage the growth of luds if there were none in the first place?

    He must be taking something as he appears to have discovered something previously lacking in his ramblings - punctuation.

    Looks like he has also discovered Spellcheck.

    However, the prognosis remains, hopeless and helpless
