Is this Riv the one on the other forum who posts loads of info but it never happens. Like bob on here?

Yes. Posted a load of absolute shite and really enjoyed himself as he did so. And because he's an intelligent bloke he genuinely gets away with it and still comes on here defending himself. Unbelievable.

If someone passes on information they've been given, in good faith, that's not lying, at least not by the person doing the passing on. It's just passing on duff information.

Never said he was lying, said he was wrong. There are ways n means of putting across info he was given, he was so cocky about it and it came back to bite him.

You may not have, but others certainly have. Being wrong isn't a hanging offence, as far as I know.
 
You should take any ITK on here with a pinch of salt anyway. It's interesting but even if it's with the best intentions sometimes things can change. I don't even mind MadBob really and I've never seen him be right.

Roker Report. But to be fair, we could be the richest club in the world, signing the best players, and competing for every trophy and those knackers would still find something to moan about.

Hmmm, but instead we are in league one outside of the playoffs...

I'm still of the opinion that they have done some great work on the finances side of the club. I don't think people truly appreciate the gravity of going from losing £25m a year while as a premier league club with income of £140m , dropping straight through the championship in 12 months and suddenly being in L1 with £1m a year from Sky instead of £110m. That is one hell of a bump, albeit with parachute support obviously. But you still have to get aligned to the £1m very rapidly.

My view they have done a tremendous job on the finances.

It's just a shame they couldn't get the team into the top 2 this season. (I always thought playoffs would be a decent target for last season given the mess we were in in the August) I think if we had we gone up this year (still might as I think its game on after the shutdown) then FFP would have taken more of a keen interest.

Overall my view is that they should have been given another season to concentrate purely on the football whereas they to date concentrated on the finances.

But at the time when it all kicked off it was truly desperate to be fair and no-one could be happy at that point and of course no one is now going to climb down from a protest even if we did go up.

Agree with all of that barring your last sentence. The kind of people who still argue they're right when they're wrong are pride before a fall morons.

I am staggered someone actually has this spin on it

club is fucked with fans like this

So Donald bought the clubf or like 12 million yet, stripped it of all its assets and parachute payments, and now wants 40 mill fo

All good by your book :lol:

He didn't strip of it of any assets they were liabilities pushing us further into debt, Maja being the notable exception.

You can sense the blind panic building mate ....
... in all honesty, in 40 years, I've never seen anything like it.

It reminds of when they had Bobby Robson and I'd just accepted they'd win things as he'd done everywhere else.

Then they sacked him :lol:

There's probably more important things to panic about nowadays. Seven months is a lot of panicking...

Claims he's seen a lot but nothing like it in 40 years. I think there was slightly more concern when we chucked that 12 point lead back in 1996 tbf.

Wish he'd just say "We're going to get the football on the pitch right - win win win is our only priority from now on. No more gassing on about anything else. I'm boring myself talking shite. "
 
The 3 shareholders methven Donald and sartori havent even got the finances between them to run the club , never mind push on it's laughable

Wasn't so long ago they were willing to sell anything ro scrape up a bit money. Selling the name of the ground , changing the club crest so it was cheaper to print , and mugs on here were lapping it all up
