Blues chief executive Simon Clegg has been named the official Olympic attaché for the Pacific island of Guam, who are sending six athletes to this summerâs Games in London. Clegg, who prior to joining the Blues in 2009 had spent 20 years and 12 summer and winter Games with the BOA as deputy general secretary and then chief executive, says heâs looking forward to enjoying this Olympics without the responsibilities that were his at previous Games. His involvement with Guam means he will receive an access all areas pass having previously had no entitlement to tickets for the Games. So obviously he won't be doing his job at ITFC, this ****ing clown has to go and NOW!!!
He will probably offering them contracts of a fiver a week plus 3 cows, 2 chickens and goat to their families to come and play for us!
Spanish you seem a tad surprised! Look at it another way, if he is away on official Olympics business, he can't be ****ing up any contract negotiations! Every cloud and all that.....!
Spanish, the bloke is a ****. We are his ****ing meal ticket, because he is probably ****ing useless at everything else!
To add insult to injury it looks as though the Azerbaijan Olympic squad has pulled out from using Ipswich as a base. I was looking forward to watching their female wrestling team warm up in Christchurch Park.
I loved the fact in his intreview to the EADT, that he has researched Guam by looking at Wikipeadi and Google, perhaps thats where he learnt all he knows about being a CEO at a football club!
Although Mr Clegg is Olympic Attache for Guam, he remains a key advisor to the British team delivering the Games – when we spoke to him he was on his way to a meeting with Lord Coe.
Remind me to look up on wiki how to get rid of an annoying ****ing freeloader ruining a football club!
Simon Clegg ate my hamster..... The court jester is here to stay methinks. If he was here just to boost Olympic ticket selling opportunities for El Presidenté Evans he would be gone by now. Evans is no fool, so why the **** is he spending his money on someone who is obviously incapable in his current role? Ulterior motive springs to mind but not that we'd find anything out as our clandestine leader, shrouded in mystery and intrigueseems to be leading us on a coach journey without a driver. Clegg may have the cap on but he's licking windows rather than steering. I feel so detached from my club at the moment. My boy's been asking me about tickets for next season, it's making me wince..... Why the **** are our transfer negotiations so protracted and shambolic? Why are we constantly fed **** by CEO & manager, with strategic plans changing two or three times a season? Why do we seem to readily accept failure? I'm more bemused than angry but I think that's starting to change!
My uncle was up this weekend, he's been to Portman Road three times this season, one of them he got a free ticket. He also gets to the ground from Stowmarket with his OAP bus pass. He told me that he felt ripped off!! In all seriousness, he had been chatting to David Rose, who was the club secretary throughout Ramsey's time, throughout Robson's time, throughout Burley's, from 1958 to 2004. It was his job to make sure the contracts were up to date, to make sure absolutely everything in the club ran smoothly even down to the detail of a player visiting the primary school where my uncle taught. He stopped short of saying that it's now a total shambles, but we can all see it is. For the ex-players and staff and for all the fans over the age of 20, we all feel detached from our club because over the last few years it's changed beyond all recognition. All the things we were so proud of have evaporated.
Do you guys think that Clegg actually knows how us fans feel or do you think his head is so far up his asshole that he ain't got a clue and that he thinks he is worshipped by the Town faithful. Personally i think he knows exactly how the majority feel but chooses to ignore it as we are all not worthy!! FOCYC!!!
It seems madness to me. Surely the summer should be his busiest period for the club. A transfer window and all the negiotations for sponsorship and corporate hospitality must be undertaken during this period. If we miss out on a key transfer because our 'chief' is swanning around with his olympic buddies I can see a revolt heading his way. (god give me strength smilie)
