    Yup, and we seem to have more drama queens than usual, we've faced more upheaval than this, we're not adverse to protest when required, f#ck me have we protested, but we were always more stoic?

    Hmmmm, is Acun friends of the show? Best way to get out of it is to try and sign a striker for 9 million in another couple of years.

    Not relevant to us. We don’t have financial problems.

    It’s just one big dark conspiracy for you isn’t it?

    No. Nothing I’ve said isn’t available on public domain.

    He deserves it for all the flack he gets online from certain individuals who can’t comprehend that fair criticism isnt not supporting the club

    Another reason is because Jordan is bad at running a football club. Birds of a feather flock together.

    This is like listening to MAGA supporters. (Not you, just the people that sound like this in general).

    "Why would the man I voted for cut my healthcare?"

    "Why would the best president in the history of America defund the NOAA and cut the scientific staff when we have frequent natural disasters that require warnings?"

    "Surely he wouldn't try to deport me, he said it was just criminals, why would he lie?"

    Occom's Razor. The most obvious answer is often the simplest one. Acun knew what was going on, he signed off on the deals, he lied. Or at least he answered in such a way that if he was asked about it again he could use plausible deniability and simply claim that wasn't what he meant or that he was misinterpreted.

    The answer is either he's a ****ing idiot or he's lying to everyone. Those are the two options based on the evidence we've seen in public. It doesn't fill me with great joy to say that, I don't want any of this and I really wanted Acun to be the man to lead us forward. Hell, he's a likeable bastard, but he didn't get to where he is today by just being a nice guy. Nobody worth hundreds of millions does. I mean, are you telling me a man worth $200m and has signed countless multi million pound deals ****ed up by accident multiple times in the same manner? Like ****.

    We want to like him because of the **** we went through with the previous owners. But just being "not Assem/Ehab Allam" isn't enough (as nice of a start as it is) and I think he knew this. He was able to come across as Mr Wonderful because he was offering free flights for fans, bringing in the crowds, paying amounts of money and wages for players we hadn't seen since we were in the Premier League. All of that exists with a back drop of the Allam's acrimonious tenure, so of course he's going to look ****ing amazing, it wouldn't occur to anybody that he's actually incompetent/capable of lying/narcissistic because we wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt after years of pain. He's smiley, he's affable, he tries to come across as an open book, but people like this, especially those who spend time in the media, are great showmen.

    Whatever happens, the truth will out and I hope I'm so wrong I end up being shamed off this board and into some random seaside cottage in the Outer Hebrides, but I think those saying "it's just a little mistake, it's still good, it's still good" are just huffing the copium a bit too hard. This is a **** up, you're allowed to be pissed off. Surely people aren't so tribal that they'll forgo common sense and honesty to maintain a delusion because it feels better to live in the dream than face reality?

    Now there’s a man who actually knows what he’s talking about, unlike all the armchair football club owners on here.
