    Lots of chat about this today obviously with lots of unknowns, and just as many theories out there. So where do people think he will pop up next?

    I'm just going to vote for the one I want to happen because I have no way of making any sort of educated guess.

    Yeah I have no idea, but I voted for back at us under new ownership (those Chinese billionaires sound nice) because maybe if I wish enough it just might happen.

    I've a sneaky feeling you didn't vote not in football. ;)

    As someone said... He's a mean, ruthless bastard. Critically, he was our** mean, ruthless bastard.

    EDIT: Hope that filter is working, because I've been swearing a lot for the past couple of days. :)

    **and could be ours again. The baby wants its Mum back.

    I didn't. Also, call it OCD on my part, but the fact that your avatar isn't in greyscale has just ruined the aesthetics of this thread for me. Everybody go greyscale! For Nicola!

    (Also Dan's sig should probably change too.)

    Actually, I have been working on something a little better than just greyscale. I was going to crack the windscreen as well, but I've been busy practising guitar.

    Having signatures turned off, I'd not noticed - Mike is suitably greyed up, now. I'll probably change it permanently when the grieving period is over.

    TSS, that sounds great, please do!

    It looked crap. You can't see anything because the detail is too small. Settled for that to the left. Signature is greyed out too.

    I suppose I should make mine grey, too.

    Went for Italian football option...thought he might want to go home (unless he considers Switzerland home?). Would never say never about him coming back here, but I doubt that is on the immediate agenda. Rumours are that Katharina wants to/does not want to (delete as applicable) sell the club...who knows? He said reportedly that he wants to stay in English football....but where? Would any club give him the autonomy he had here? Is any club as perfect as us? He might fancy reorganising the FA....that would go down well :)

    It is a bit sad, the way in which it all ended. We obviously heard murmurings of discontent in the summer, but it all developed very quickly in the last 48 hours or so. It kind of feels like one of your favourite TV series' characters suddenly being written out of the story, with no real explanation. Let the drama continue.

    The really important issue is what happens to David Salas. David for CEO.

    I'm not interested in yesterday's man it is tomorrow's man that is worrying me at the moment.

    I had two thoughts yesterday.

    Our recent run of bad form coincided with Nicola 's notice period starting and during the press conference yesterday our interpreter friend made a Freudian slip when he mentioned our new owner and was quickly corrected by MP.

    At the moment I have decided that as I have no influence on anything to do with SFC and also I have no confidence in anyone* inept enough to lose us the best CEO we have ever had I am amusing myself with lots of projects and staying away from the wireless, television and the computer other than to check my mail.

    That is it for today. I am going to do other things in order to supress my anger and disappointment and to retain my sanity.

    *I was going to be insultingly rude about Ms Liebherr but have restrained my self.
