Lerner/Lambert v Ellis/O'Leary

[dave.woodhall]

Happier, better times under Herbert:



I get so misty-eyed remembering those halcyon days.

that must be photoshopped Dave because that never happened. Ellis was great compared to that asset stripping Lerner bloke who nobody ever sees.

Isn't the real issue that back then the Fans did care and did vent their spleen where as now, everybody is just punch drunk by the now years of mismanagement and piss poor appointments. I think all the protest has been sucked out of the fans. It just feels like we are all walking Zombie like to the Championship.
Lerner is the unqualified architect of this demise, Faulkner his corporate bullshit yes man and Lambert his clueless foreman.

Spot on.

Let me get this right. Back then it was so bad that we protested. Now it's worse so we... don't protest.

Could you explain the logic there, please?

It took the best part of 20 years before there were any real protests against Ellis from fans, and even then they were sporadic and generally short lived. 86/87 was hardly a hotbed of protests as we finished bottom for example.

After the amount of money Lerner has put in, i'd be embarrassed to be hanging signs over the top of the Holte End.

Ah the good old days of the "Spend or Go" poster campaign around the city.

Many years later I found out who did them. You'd be amazed to learn his identity.

You mean our money, as in don't we owe it him in 'loans' ?

Or will he feck off and not want it all back ?

If it's the latter and he will walk without wanting to recoup it then, and only then will I considered it as his money that's been wasted

So, in this hypothetical scenario for which there isn't just no evidence but which in fact runs contrary to the evidence, you're furious with the owner? I too am livid with him because of the part he'll play in the assassination of President Hillary Clinton. I'll never forgive him for this once it's happened if it happens.

Not really, no.

So, if you want to protest then go ahead. What's your banner going to say?

Well spotted, I have indeed never made a criticism of Randy Lerner in all my 10,000+ posts during his ownership.

'Who said anything about a protest' on a blue bedsheet in red paint.
I expected an answer like that.

This getting the same as the Lambert thread,some of the answers coming back are getting silly,and are trying to get a reaction.
Its a boring way of getting a point across.
