    All I will say is I have met ML three times in Swansea and he was charm itself. Had photo with son and was very chatty. Certainly very humble when I met him.

    That's why I find Dai's proclamation that ML has an enormous ego and is hated by everyone and their dog hard to believe.

    Agree, but meeting him in the street and shaking hands and passing the time of day, isn't the same as working with him, it was the same with Sousa, everyone that had met and spoken to Sousa, thought he was a Gentleman, but if your were on the wrong end of one of his ego trips, when he couldn't get his own way then the story was completely different, I know and I cannot say even now on here!...................<ok>


    One day I will tell you all about some of the short cuts our board got up to over the development at Landore!! You will laugh your socks off, as well as being very infuriated over the small time Charlie's we have on the board, but then I guess some of you have started to work that one out! Anyway that's for another day. I could write a book on what I know, but would get sued, and I'm not talking about our Roofer Huw Jenkins, I'm talking about Bob the Builder Martin Morgan!...............<laugh>

    Chairmen always say this, whether their manager is staying or leaving. If asked, what choice to they have. He can hardly come out and say they are unhappy and discussing his future. No smoke without fire.

    That's what I'm doing. I can't wait for Laudrup to leave. I think he's destroying our club. Agent shown the door, disagreements with Huw, brick fights in training. We need better than that.

    Agent shown the door because he was trying to sell the captain ,you've never disagreed with anyone ? and I haven't read anywhere where Laudrup had a piece of concrete in his hand . Pretty tenuous reasons for celebrating a sacking .Now if you came out with some valid reason then perhaps I could understand .

    I have a valid reason. We are sliding towards relegation fast and Laudrup seems helpless. The things mentioned above just point to unrest at the club. It all points to it being best if he leaves. But I suppose we have to wait for someone to make an offer for him, as I doubt Huw will sack him.

    Sorry, but Huw and co are too busy drinking coffee to worry about anything as trivial as that.

    Yes I know, as if anyone is likely to believe that, Huw must think we are all stupid!......................<laugh>

    Yes, we do have a bunch of small time Charlies trying to play at big business and they are doing the club no favours.

    They have a reputation amongst all the business community locally that have had dealings with them, of not doing things properly or cutting corners, and doing things on the cheap, many I know feel it demonstrates a complete lack of class which will hold us back?
