It's in case he gets confused with one of one of his sex toy customers. 

In which case he signs off with 'Yours with a dildo up my arse'.

Quote
Former Birmingham City co-owner David Sullivan has hit out at football’s money culture claiming foreign owners like Aston Villa’s Randy Lerner are only in the country to make money.

The colourful Cockney with an estimated fortune of £500m and owner of 100 sex shops sold Birmingham City to Chinese businessman Carson Yeung, a deal which has since turned sour for the Midland team.

Speaking to the Daily Mail about the influx of foreign owners in the Premier League he said:” Randy Lerner is here to make money. The Americans at Man United and Liverpool are here to make money. The Sunderland guy has a strategy to make money.”

'There are good examples of foreign ownership, “ he said. “Roman Abramovich and Sheik Mansour are in it for the fun. It's a hobby.”
Sullivan owns West Ham United with David Sullivan his friend and fellow former Birmingham City director David Gold.

His blast at Aston Villa owner Randy Lerner continued with him claiming that Aston Villa treated him and his fellow directors badly and subjected them to abuse from home fans because they were the former owners of Blues.

He stated: “Aston Villa, put the visiting directors in a room with the corporate home fans. We got loads of abuse because we were the former owners of Birmingham City.

“We were treated appallingly. I nearly did it to them in retaliation but I wasn't prepared to stoop to their level.”

“At West Ham we've got the best boardroom in the Premier League. We give the visiting directors the best table, right in the middle. It's the friendliest. It's lovely.”


Who's he think he's kidding, Abramovich & Mansour only in it for the fun, I don't think so, although money is no object to them.

Gold & Sullivan aren't in it for the money are they, of course not just fun for them !!!

It seems like they are still smarting from the General's comments, shame they are unable to move on.



Abramovich and the Sheik have made the premiership even more uncompetitive. 

Remember when the porn dwarf was charging £50 for away fans at the Sty - how nice of him to treat the visiting directors at Upton Park.  Can't stand the bloke.

Abuse was probably because of all the shit they spout about Villa.

I saw him on 'Back to the Floor' the other night trying to sell dildo's.  And he has the cheek to say Randy's a tosser.
Didn't he sell a club full of dildo's and then buy another club..... full of dildo's ?
The biggest dildo of them all he is.
What a complete false cock he really is, fecking moronic cocksucker.

Now, if the king of Saudi Arabia wants to buy West Ham we would happily step aside for the good of the club. But we wouldn’t step aside for a mystery foreign buyer whose financial resources we have no knowledge of.’

but he would sell the blues to the first man to approach him ,  twice infact when at first he had no cash

un fuckin believable >:(

Gold and Sullivan really are unpleasant East End wide boys, made wealthy by spending a lifetime exploiting the murkier sides of human nature. They do not have the intelligence or imagination to understand why they are not accepted in normal society and no amount of bleating about it, or attempting to rewrite history will make an iota of difference.

I didn't even read that bit about selling to shady foreigners with questionable finances. That's EXCATLY what they did with Blose.
What a hypocritical joker. Does he even think before he.... nah, forget it.

Wasn't there a problem at the Sty at a reserve game during Sullivan tenure with a derogatory sign which John Gregory took particular exception to? To 'stoop' to Villa's level Sullivan would need a seriously long ladder.

One has to marvel at the toadiness of the press, who just let him come out with all this bullshit without challenging him.

First question should be "So you're saying you knew all about Carson yeung's financial resources then?"

Indeed that should be the first question after that bollocks quote about "not selling to myserious owners who you don't know".  Although to be fair any decent reporter should be laughing so hard he'd struggle to get the question out.

did he not make any money from the sale of Blues then  ?

They really saw Carson Yeung coming when they sold the club to him for £81m!!
