    Please believe me here...Adam Pearson is not the answer and we don't want him running our club.

    It makes me laugh how many people think he is some kind of god. I'd rather have Ehab running things for Acun and that is saying something!

    He's respected for being the man that finally got the Allams out the club, effectively doubling the attendances and is now funding the club. The season has been a ****-up and some bad decisions made, which may or may not have been his fault, but his intention looks good with the appointment of Selles and we'll see in January how serious he is. It's way too early to write him off as an owner.

    Why would you prefer Ehab to run the club?

    Well I'm fairly regular, no lactulose needed, and my last FIT test came back as 'no further action'. Oh sorry ... :emoticon-0138-think

    Why? He steadied us through much more troubled waters. He was known as a tight bugger, but if the budget's being set by Acun, what's the concern?

    I saw the name Rodwell which reminded me what happened to Jack Rodwell.
    He looked very promising when young then seemed to just fade away ?

    My biggest fear is that we don't have any asset to sell this summer, KLP, Philogene, Greaves are all gone. Do you see any double figure sale next summer? I can't find any, will be a huge operating loss for next year.

    Whether you agree with it or not it was evident he tried to delegate it to the team he trusted and it failed this summer until he apparently came in to push things along.

    Dublin has a bit of a CV having worked at Sheff Utd, Reading and Stoke but this is his first step into being a sporting director. I hope he’s capable of doing it and that Acun trusts him as well
