come back mate all is forgiven ! christ on mighty what was Quinn thinking letting this clown taking over our club, what is he thinking now ?, and get Peter reid back as Benno says, but these players don't give a toss and get them in market square on Monday so they can explain themselves.
He never had a thing to be forgiven for, He wasn't a billionaire, he was a millionaire in a footballing world which was starting to demand billionaires to compete. A dent to short's finances, personal bankruptcy to a man like Murray. He couldn't afford us now either.
Spot on. When he was the major shareholder his 'personal wealth' was estimated to be around £20mil. Good by normal standards but chicken feed when running a Football Club where 'the fans' were constantly screaming for more investment - from the Chairman, of course. Since he sold out and concentrated on his businesses his wealth is said to have increased to over £70mil, depending on which list you read. His greatest legacy to us fans turned out to be the move to the SSoL. He built it for about a net £16mil on the back of grants and the sale of Roker Park. Our Friends to The North spent about £80mil on improving the Stadium that they rent from the Council. The difference between having an accountant or a builder in the Chair. Arsenal's Stadium cost almost £400 mil to build. Sir Bob deserves nowt but praise from us.
