I agree he's said a lot of things, if you listen to his interview with Barnes though he basically admits that, he said he didn't realise that absolutely everything he said would be scrutinized to the nth degree, you have to remember that someone who's grown up supporting Oxford doesn't really appreciate what it's like to live amongst north east football, you don't get this kind of scrutiny in any London club, I mean of course you get fans who hate you but we as fans have absolutely chewed the fat over everything he's ever said on a podcast, he probably just thought he'd have a bit if crack with fans and a pint and we'd all just understand if we didn't get promoted which isn't ever gonna happen at a club like ours in league one.

However, that doesn't make him a chancer or a charlatan.

With all due respect, I think this is a huge reduction in what he has actually done to the club.

Someone who bases our strategy on galvanising the fans alone is hugely underestimating their position as owner of this football club.

Looking at the owning the club as "fun" and will give him a day out with his lad is criminal in itself.

At no point has he ever realised or even put any amount of work into being the best owner he could be, to busy having a merry and then feeling sorry for himself.

This football club isn't a play thing, it's a big cutthroat business and unless you are going to pour your heart, soul, effort and intellegence into it or you employ someone to do so, you have no place owning it.

They are all lining up behind this Magnus lad so they can say they were right. Or claim they were just repeating what he'd said if it turns out to be wrong.

Barnes was literally talking twitter rumours and thought they sound interesting. He hasn't confirmed anything at all.
Just wait and see chaps, not a single person knows anything.
