    Well if he's as good as his YouTube clips, we've got a cracker there. Mind you Ghilas had a good YouTube reel as well.

    As for the debate on Acun, c'mon ffs, he's made poor choices but he invariably tries to put it right. I'd rather him in charge then our previous set of cnuts, and for that matter the other clowns who were gonna buy us before Acun came in. Look at the sh1tshow at Reading now !

    It’s not his money. It’s a loan Acun Medya took out to finance the club and has interest on it. It’s not like he’s converted debt to equity like Forest’s owner.

    Acun Medya, is a Turkish media company founded by Acun Ilıcalı, Esat Yöntunç, Çaykun Ertan, Alpay Kazan, Mustafa Kazan and Evren Çağlar on 27 September 2003. Acun Ilıcalı who owns the company, is also the main host of most shows made by the company.

    Just saying like !

    I said Tony Bloom doesn’t whine to the media about Brighton supporters criticising his decisions, not that he never made mistakes.

    You seem really upset. Do you need a hug or something? Massive overreaction from yourself and others to white knight for a football club owner. Are you hoping he recognises you defending his honour and takes you on holiday in his private jet?

    Just saying what? It doesn’t contradict anything I’ve said. Acun Medya took out a loan which is used to finance the club with interest. It’s not his personal fortune. It’s not even Acun Medya’s income. It’s a loan from a third party.

    Thats the thing
    It was about acun being insecure

    Not about if hes a bad owner

    Personally im glad hes our owner
    You disagree i think

    But he def seems partial to reading any opinions and views fans have on him
    And it affects him
    Thats the definiton of insecurity

    It also has no bearing on him as an owner

    Agreed, he’s made mistakes but I’d still take him over 90% other owners. It’s never boring that’s for sure . There is no malice in his errors unlike the previous owner, always thought Tan was supposed to be the calm
    Head to his rashness, but maybe not

    So black and white[/QUOTE]

    Basing that kind of judgment on public statements which most owners make from time to time is
    Pretty sure if Tony Bloom spoke to the media to allay fan concerns then Brighton fans wouldn't be trying to twist it into a personal slight on his character.

    Oh no, I’ve slighted Acun’s character.

    City are now promoting Stoke tickets as your chance to see Louie make his debut, looks like he's nailed on to make an appearance.

    Insecure is generally seen as a character trait. A negative one at that.

    Sometimes he's been too willing to please - like renaging on the Cooper signing solely due to negative fan reaction, and others he hasn't been quick enough to listen - like waiting too long to remove Walter, but really I just think he likes the limelight. That's not something I would normally associate with insecurity.

    But I'm sure our resident psychologist will disagree
