Errr.. Why are you asking a poster to be banned based on nothing?

I haven't broken any forum rules

I haven't been bullying, or racist or abused anyone. You can't ban someone for having an opinion.

Absolute joke on here sometimes, if posters want to have an opinion then why should they get the mob mentality on here wanting you banned for it?

There's no grounds for it, so calm yourself down

Where did I ask for you to be banned? I just said it's not good and meant for this thread :lol:

I may have stated ages ago that I hope you were banned but that was in relation to this thread simply after one of your other outbursts daring the mods to ban you in this post here in reply to @PhilSAFC because you have an 'opinion' :lol:

I think even Mark Fuhrman knows your opinion on this takeover as it's now obvious to a blind man you've had numerous trolling pokes at Reiver now and then in the hope of retaliation, this being your latest when you weren't even in that 'mini' coversation.

If you're not trolling then most times you come out with some negative drivel and it's not as if you don't know what you're saying. It's as if you constantly fish for bites and when you do get them you play all innocent and it's actually you having an opinion. Aye trolling isn't specifically in the rules but it's tiresome and thankfully when the takeover is completed, it is happening, you'll stop this negative drivel dragging the thread down at any opportunity you can. I now wonder if deep down you wish it doesn't happen just so you can feed your pessimictic outlook on everything SAFC related that I see on here.

Certainly not on the same level as Weinstock, but back in the day Tom Cowie, who then owned an expanding garage group, three finance companies, a bank and an insurance brokerage, still found time to ferret through filing cabinets (pre-computer days) after all the staff had gone home.

That was one way he kept his finger on the pulse of what what going on in his business empire. His attention to detail, not to mention his parsimony, was legendary.

I heard that from someone who worked for Tom Cowie from the age of 16 and was very close to him being one of his Grouse shooting clan. He (Cowie) even, I'm led to believe, sacked his own son because ,allegedly , he thought he was doing naughty things who then opened up on his own in Houghton.

Simply don’t understand that attitude at all. Surely you want your club to win the lot, but she’s concerned that we end up with a stadium full of 'ex-mag glory seeking turncoats' and genuine fans end up priced out.

That’s what I like about SD staying on, as well as an owner, he’s also a football fan and appears to have a genuine affinity with supporters. Pretty sure I read somewhere that he made sure at Eastleigh that all supporters had affordable access to the club. If it gets too bad we can always extend the stadium.
 
There’s a plane flying over the SOL with a banner on it at the minute! Too far away to see what it says tho

I did my YTS at Cowies in the offices on Hylton Road. Loved it. Was only meant to be there for 2 weeks but was there for my whole 2 years. Then when my time was up they kicked me out after I was expecting to be kept on. The MD who thought he was too good to talk to people was also fired for nobbing his secretary. Then I saw him in Sunderland College and tried to be all pally with me. Mr Smart he was called.

not sure why i said all that :lol:
