    Course he did. You were losing. He came on the pitch. You ended up winning. He may not have scored or got an assist but just being on the pitch contributed towards your win <ok>

    Can someone enlighten me?

    Does your Al Queda bloke have any money or what?

    Is he a multi trillionaire as some were saying, or a 30 bob merchant playing football owner?

    No idea. He hasnt said himself if he is a millionaire, billionaire or even trillionaire. He has been asked but not deemed it appropriate to answer as he makes a point that he wont be doing what other rich owners do that is throw money and try and buy success. He states evolution not rev0lution. The press has said he is both multi-million and billionaire. So which is it? The press feed the info but they all contradict each other. Doing research, he has lots of assits and shares which make him rich. To me he is a multi-millionaire which seems to be covered in assits and shares. But somehow he had the funds to buy the club kicking out Higgs and he has paid off all debts apart from Sainsburys costs which cannot be paid until after Thursdays court decision. But we are relatively debt free now. So he has funds, thats for sure. But we are not just looking at his finances. His whole family are the owners. Combine their worth together = ££££££££££!!!!! But is this assits and shares too? No idea. They say the Sainsburys decision is not important as UWE we get built. If they are all about assits and shares, how will they fund a £35-40million project that is UWE stadium? No idea. But Wael comes across as a great person who loves football and is certainly talking the talk. Unfortunately we have to wait for him to walk the walk until the Sainsburys decision. Not long to go now though until we ALL find out how it will happen <ok>

    Was wondering whether Zac Clough wished he had taken a little more time when he rejected a move to our neighbours 6-0 seems a pretty convincing point to have made to him

    I checked if he was playing and he wasnt. Dont know why. They also got rid of a decent player on loan this week after sacking their manager. But City can only play whoever is in front of them and they stuffed Bolton.

    Rotherham won too. Warnock doing great with them.

    I only seen the starting line up. I just presumed he wasnt on the bench because surely he should be starting games! Crazy.

    I bet he got some stick?
