Agree about every club is a selling club, with the exception of Small Heath. Apart from Francis in the 70s the rest had to be jettisoned cos they're shit and couldnt realise any money.

He also thinks we're playing Blackburn on the opening day of the season and that he passed on to RL everything that's good at the club.
In fairness, he actually said  our first home game is against Blackburn on August 20th.

Oh did he? I misheard him, sorry!

Made me laugh when he basically answered the question he wanted to answer at times not the ones they had asked !! - The only point I dont agree with is the comment about the squads of teams we play on the back of the program being more than we have - this is somehting I have been looking at for years and we really have more than the team we are playing

He'd have made a great politician - and his hearing is on the blink.
