    And yet your post has no likes dutch. Strange old world.
    When we all thought the membership idea was ****, he thought it was "dynamic"
    Seems if they're made to feel a bit special all is good with the world

    I knew what his point was Stan, I was making the point that if they really wanted out they'd sell whatever league we were in, I personally think Allam Jr is struggling to part with it now we're in the PL - salewise it MAY have been better not to have been promoted ........ all supposition on my part and we'll never know. More worryingly is the lack of news regarding any kind of sale.

    I agree with you, and I'm a tad apprehensive about Ehab's possible second thoughts.

    His latest utterances fill me with apprehension too - let's hope the old man is well enough to put his foot down and make him toe the line. I fear PL chairman fits in with Lamborghini driving PoloGuy's preferred lifestyle.

    He's just keeping his cards close to his chest Stanners. He despises the media, especially the local ones, and why wouldn't he?

    We'll be sold. Soon.

    Trust me, I'm a photographer.

    Or I was.

    Says it all pretty accurately albeit in a rather large nutshell.

    Not a worrier - a realist. Don't see too many championship clubs being sold and maybe PL has spoiled us but the standard of championship football in the season just gone wasn't great. For me if we had lost the play off final we would not only have lost the majority of the players who started at Wembley, meaning an almost total rebuild of the squad, but as a consequence would have struggled to mount any kind of promotion push this season. I'm not happy to settle for mid table championship and I think that's what we'd be looking at had we lost to the Wendies. It's getting harder every season to get promoted from the championship and at least we know if we get relegated this season we will have the £££££ to invest in the squad the season after.

    Allams won't sell at a loss and I doubt they would raise the money they want if we had remained a championship club.

    It is a first class summary of everything that has gone on by what is probably quite a few peoples view.

    It would be interesting reading to see something similar written by the Allams on their perception of what has gone on. It may then make it a bit easier to understand how their "logic" works.

    They could title their piece of literary genius "All fans are ****s!"
