    It was threadbare, but there was some real quality in it, including attacking threat, and it wasn't as threadbare as this squad is.
    Great day though.

    It's a completely different sport so no comparison and off hand I can't remember if/when that was.

    You want it to be like this forum where only the opinions which meet with the approval of those in charge and their lickspittles are considered acceptable?

    Just nice questions and unbridled adoration while he lies on the floor licking his own bollox?

    Good move. As long as he doesn't run onto the KC pitch, heading the ball, before volleying it into the south stand goal, and wearing those tight shorts!!

    Appears to be sponsors only being invited. Company I work for has one and he's just mentioned he's invited

    It is amazing to think he could have bought Man Utd for £20 million.

    İn which case, is it actually a Q&A for public consumption? Or just a more routine sponsors' event?

    No idea. I doubt he would make the venture out for nothing

    First off, he isn't "useless unless he's in the penalty box". That's a ridiculous thing to say. Secondly, Oscar at £20k a week = £1 mill for the season. How much do you think it would cost to instead go out and buy and then pay the wages for a decent striker who can score goals?

    Nope, I just don’t think now is the time for people to be asking about whether Harry Vaughan is the second coming of George Best or whether they can get a joint City and FC pass…

    Won’t be as bad as back in the Christopher Needler days when we were in danger of going out of business and the first question at the AGM in the gym was from some old bloke about who should take our corners. As if that had anything to do with the owner. And back then there were questions about catering and the toilets. It made you despair.

    Good question. If it is for sponsors then rationally, you would expect this to be a stablising mission given the uncertainty and the state of the first team squad.

    Holding an invite only midday Q&A that isn't just a press conference seems really weird to me.

    That simply isn't true.
    They had Walter identified as their man from the off. It then took a bit of time, but not that long at all in the scheme of things, to come to agreement with him, and his chosen assistants, to sort out the contracts and other paperwork. And then Walter also had a family holiday arranged.
    During that process of course they would also have been talking plans & targets etc
