Made money out of the club and never put any of his own in. Got the stadium built virtually for free with grants and sold the club when it's value had increased because of that. He did give us the Murray gates though. Greedy, self serving fat faced twat.

Bit harsh that canny lad on Murray
 
If it wasn't for Murray and his vision at the time, surely we wouldn't be playing where we are now.

Got a lot to be grateful for like
 
Murray also laid down the foundations of the academy.

As mentioned elsewhere its hard to forget about the 19 and 15 point seasons but Murray made a big contribution to the future of the club.

Give and take like

I admire the way you must have undertaken lengthy and comprehensive research to produce that piece of f***ing shite comment.
Well done.
 
He did make money out of the club, it took him a long time and it wasn't all that much but he did.


Did he fuck and we have covered this before and its spiltting pedantic hairs as you do best whilst missing the entire point very conveniently...;)

Had he chose to not take on all the shite and crap SAFC brought him he could have made a lot more money with a lot less hassle almost anywhere else..........

How many Chairman took salaries of £75k then £25k then sod all from such a high profile business...

Are you still going to tell me he sold umpteen million shares at a monster profit as before then........... ;)

The lad said Murray made money from Sunderland (amongst other things). He was right, he made money from Sunderland.

Could he have made more money had he invested elsewhere? Almost certainly, I'm just sticking to facts though......

Aye in the same way you go to work and make money there by doing so......

As I said its pedantry to the extreme and pathetic in the search of an equally pathetic point..

But you know that anyway dont you but wont admit it...............;)

The lad said Murray made money from the club, you said this was "amongst the biggest shite ever posted on here".

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with making money from the club, Niall Quinn has made money from the club afterall.

Quinn made a lot lot more(nowt personal just the way its worked out when you pay yersel a million a year ) and as I said and you once again backed it up its pedantry taken to the utmost pathetic level to make a pathetic point..

Terence Brown around the same time was taking £750k a year from West Ham and he even back dated it to add insult to injury..

Go to work in the morning and "make some money" from your employers............

He made money outside of his wages too though, as did Quinn. I'm not sure I've said there's anything wrong with it either though.

I'm not sure why you think my factual statements are pathetic or pedantic though.
 
Bring back Cowie :roll:

The only thing Bob did wrong was fail to move with the times at the dawn of the Premier League era.

Its quite a big only thing though isn't it? However we all know that wasnt his only shortcoming as chairman dont we? Remember the long long silences through the dark days because he knew he had no credibillity with the fans. Well done bob for the stadium and thankyou but that aside ffs he was shite.

Also the whole stadium thing taking into consideration the amount of grants on offer. It would have been another glaring error from bob to miss the easy opportunity that came his way to build a very very cheap stadium rather than it being the fantastic piece of forward thinking that some numpty's on say it was. I admit I'm too young to remember the Cowie era but bob murray's era was a very poor one. Even when he stumbled on a good team with the 2 7th place finishes he didn't know what the fuck to do. How anyone can say he was a good chairman is absolutly beyond me like. Also at the time Quinny's offer came along I believe he would have took any offer from anyone as the pressure of the hatered from the fans was taking its toll on his health (again you sre the fans. Must have very short memories) There was never no holding out for the right offer for safc. Proof of this came when there was talk of Cowie wanting to buy the club back and murray told him to put his money where his mouth is. Cowie didn't but it proves he would have sold to anyone.

Clueless. Absolutely clueless.

It would be difficult to be more wrong

Absolute bollocks. Who cares if we got grants for the stadium, take off the rose tinted specs and Roker was a tip. Murray had the vision to build the stadium and the academy without which nobody, not Quinny and Drumaville or Ellis Short would have invested in us. His main failing in my view was sticking with Reidy for too long-the Torre Andre Flo thing etc. As Chairmen go he wasn't bad at all.

He made barely any money out the sale club in real terms - enabling Drumaville to invest in playing staff.

While he was chairman even by just guaranteeing money he was risking nearly all he worked for - not many of us can say that!

He was only guilty of not being filthy rich which is what a chairman needed to be by the time he left. Can't believe some people can be so thick as to have ridiculous views as above.
 
I remember Murray as a shit chairman who had to go, in hindsight, he did ok all things considered though.
