    A sensible post but I think this time you're wrong. I don't think he's interested in these boards or what people think of him.

    Don't know if this is relevant, if things have changed or if it was just interview talk.

    Mr Allam still has plans. “I’m hoping I can retire or semi-retire after two years and fully retire in three or four years,” he says.

    On one hand, we have people who’ll accept anything, consume anything, believe anything and do anything they’re told. Literally they can be bought.

    On the other hand, we have people who will fight for what they believe in (right or wrong), fight to protect history and tradition for the future generations (as well as their own) and will not be swayed by threats or bribes.

    Is this too simple an analogy? Perhaps, but which parts are false?

    We’ll see the stakes upped in the future with a struggle between a growing CTWD and the threats of AA and those fans aping his aggression through diatribe.

    There's plenty more beyond that, just chose a few I'd seen. Interesting tweet from Burnsey saying that the ignore the distraction of the name change from Brucey hadn't reached those at the top.

    How the F*** do you think I am measuring it.I am off to watch a match today at a sell out stadium.This is not cos we got a lucky 3rd round draw in the FA cup.
    Tom Huddlestone will be in our midfield on wages we can afford.
    We are not now in league 1.
    The effect of the reign of AA has been tremendous and those who are anti are not prepared to back his judgement on the evidence thus far.
    I hope more people start telling the lads giving out CTWD propoganda that they support what AA has achieved for us.
    I will be telling those near me I am not singing CTID and the reasons why.
    Will he turn round and rip us off?Nobody knows but I can only go on his record with us up until today

    That s a brilliant write up.

    "His views on business practice are unorthodox, to say the least. “Everything I did was contrary to standard practice. Everything.

    “I did the opposite of what was the norm. I expanded here and dealt with the overheads by improving productivity and efficiency, then I went to the market and said, ‘I am the best’.”

    I just like im more and more. Making Ehab do that before coming in to the company too. Anyone who thinks Ehab isnt 100% behind his old man is clutching at straws.

    He's put a lot of money in (with strings attached, he's basically allowed to club to use his money).

    That's about the only good thing he's done.

    Almost everything else he's done has been cack-handed, confrontational, alienating, hot-headed, insulting, offensive, immature, ill-considered and detrimental to the club.

    I want Premiership football.

    But not at any price.

    Brilliant. Now the media trying to force him into a public backdown.
    This will not end with an apology.
    What a ****ing **** day.

    You think we will just slip quietly back into mid-table Championship do you with all of our players sold, and our manager has walked?

    He just solidifies the movement against him.

    ALL of this is his own doing.

    His reputation is being dragged through the dirt, and it's HIS fault.

    I'm not surprised he can't stomach the reality and instead focuses on pretend enemies who have only ever wanted to be friends.

    I think you may be the best WUM this board has ever seen. Your commitment is astounding. Fair play.
