I don't think numbers 4, 5, or 9 belong on that list, and Mary would argue about 8. 7 was also an error before 2006. I don't know what 6 is.

4 - Murray was co chair when Parky was appointed.

5- Read Simon Jordan's biography IA. The quote is oft repeated. Why do you think Murray then poached Monkeys Head Dowie ?

9 - It was a joke, although there was encrusted pigeon excrement over my seat every August under Muzza. Perhaps he placed it there himself?


Super - sadly it is a matter of public record that Murray paid Waggott and his hapless exec team a combined salary of over 500k a year. Waggy will live long in the memory for his shirt hanging out of his pants on match days (great image), and his selfless dedication to collecting diversity awards on behalf of the Club from Greenwich council. Oh, and we were relegated and spunked millions of pounds on his watch as well....
 
Spunked millions? His sole job was to unfortunately cost cut, which accounts show he did. He became somewhat a ''villain'' within the club because he bought in rules like certain employees not getting free drinks for them and their chums on match days etc. It was pathetic. They didn't like an ''outsider'' coming in and pulling the rug on their precious privileges. They also didn't like the fact he was seen as the right man for the job the year before he officially started, and that one of their own wasn't as much considered.

In the end he was hung out to dry by Muzza. But I'm not privy to divulge that information. But I'm not surprised to see him doing a stellar job at Coventry.

They don't belong on the list because they don't belong in a list of epic failures. I never said they didn't happen, but on the list of things Murray has done wrong over the years, calling Simon Jordan a tosser doesn't even register.

Thanks for the offer, but I will not be reading Simon Jordan's autobiography. I hope you enjoyed it.
