    Guess I am just too touchy with it all mate <ok>

    I hurt as much as the next guy when we lose, I have as much hope as the next guy that things will get better, that the next owner will be better, that the player we sign that I have to Wiki will be a superstar for us.

    When it all starts to unfold for the worse and you start to believe that relegation back to League one is a real possibility it makes you snappy

    With Regards to the ground purchase, that was important to me to show us Cellino was a man of his word, what bigger test than him saying NUMEROUS times he was going to purchase the ground before November. We never asked him to, he made the promise to WIN US over.

    As usual WJ you are confusing your wordy s**te as fact. There are only two facts that matter, take a look at both.
    1. The league table
    2. Our recent results

    Silvestri has made how many gaffs now? Name me a GK with worse distribution in the English leagues. Beradi is utter s**te, Bellusci is a hot headed liability. Montenegro must be s**te if Morison starts in front of him.

    If you want to ignore the real facts feel free. In the next month many here will start to wake up and smell the coffee.
    Ristac and even mighty and TC are nearer to our position than you are.

    Glory, I'm well aware of the League position & our recent results. We've been there before. Many times. The difference now is that we have the potential to move forward. I'd be happy with survival this season. Next season should see the last of the dross leave, our team will be one year older and have one year's valuable experience, plus the prospect of some new signings to improve us too. for me, the future remains bright. When was the last time we had a squad with such potential, or a Chairman that had made us debt-free. I'd settle for either. We've got both!!! Lighten up.

    As for Silvestri, the lad is 23. He's got some learning to do, and will only get better. I rate him very highly. I had a quicky shufty at the passing stats & Silvestri is our 7th best passer. Seems like decent distribution to me.

    As for Montenegro, I don't know what's going on there, or why he only seems to get the last couple of minutes of a match. He's certainly a different type of player to Morison, so not sure why they should be compared, tbh.

    A house of straw with foundations built on sand.

    Our chairman hasn't even paid GFH for his shares yet, can't get a loan for 50% of the purchase price of ER. Although why he needs one given his previous statements is a mystery in itself.
    If you think Cellino is the answer, feck knows what question you are asking.
    We are in the s**t and it's going to get a lot worse very quickly.
    I wouldn't bet against Bates getting his hands on us again now that the smoke is clearing and Cellinos mirrors are coming into view.

    Along with the fact that;

    A) We still won't own our own ground and B) The reasons Cellino will give as to why he never took up the options to sign any of these young loan players.

    The reason Cellino brought in the young loan players was because he hoped for promotion. He hoped that we would go up and he would buy these players at an agreed set price as an investment that he could cash in on, anyone believing he is bringing them in for our long term future is kidding themselves.

    Think you will find he already has signed some of the loan players.
