The Takeover Thread - Recon Group - NOW WITH NEW POLL

[aj2k77]

Very disrespectful.

He owns the club and cannot be bothered to give up a day of his time to have the decency to come over and put things straight. I'm not asking for a speech given from the steps of the Holte end addressing us, I'm asking that senior employees be fronted with the news, if any, like a decent man. Front up and take some responsibility, don't hide in your Dr Evil reclusive mansion and fire off a letter to the media depart you coward.

This all has an air of us being an annoyance to him now, his tone he took during his little statement of a statement was snappy. So sell the club for whatever you can get for it, it wont be what you put in either, because you fucked it up, WE OWE YOU NOTHING.

If he isn't selling, do you think he should put more money in?

No, I'd expect him to do pretty much fuck all, like he is at the moment and let everyone else shoulder the responsibility for his company. I'd also expect him to be pilloried for being a clown of the utmost order and to get no respect from the fans.

I'd like to know is he isn't selling and isn't contributing anything then what the point is of him owning a top club? A billionaires midlife crisis purchase.

He's done fuck all, he's give us fuck all, we owe him fuck all. So fuck off Lener, take fuck all with you, oh, and if you could find somebody else to give us a couple of hundred million who we can tell to fuck off in a few years time, that'd be good of you.

Or he can sell to someone with a clue and they make something of us and get our deserved gratitude?

You mean like the owner we had four years ago? You weren't telling him to fuck off and saying he'd given us fuck all then were you ?

[pooligan]

Do we need all that swearing Mr Woodhall ?

[Richard E]

If you look at Collymore's follow up tweets he poses some questions which are logical and might suggest he's right. Only thing that puzzled me then is why Lambert suddenly started banging on about the need for investment when he must know it isn't coming. You'd think he's polishing his CV before he gets the elbow but surely if Randy stays Lambert stays?

4 years of rubbish decisions, football, entertainment, results, players and managers has eroded the goodwill he had. What will his legacy be when he leaves this club? A finished training ground and a refurbed pub. He had a simpletons attempt at breaking the top 4 when he took over, employ a manager with a good profile and throw cash at it, barely anything was done to build anything lasting.

Again, were you moaning when O'Neill was here?

Can't disagree with any of that. All the goodwill he built up in the early days have eroded for me - these last 4 seasons have been nothing short of disgraceful. We've been humiliated too many times, and I blame one man, Randy Lerner.

So who do you credit for the good times?

[Jimbo]

Randy deserves credit, of course, but what he did was like one of us going on holiday and blowing all our money on the first day. And most of it on overpriced tourist tat.

Yes. When things go wrong, I moan. When things go right, I cheer. When things go wrong 4 years continually I moan a lot and expect the man at the top to take the responsibility for it.

I wasn't aware of anyone else being blamed. Do you also really expect him to walk away and lose however many millions?

He has made some bad mistakes though Dave.  I'm not saying he's fcuked us or anything but the appointments have been bad etc.

[Clampy]

Despite the last few dodgy seasons and the bizarre appointment of McLeish, he came along with the best of intentions and threw a shit load of money at our club. It's something I'll always be grateful for even if it didn't quite work out.

I'm not defending the last three years at all, but to say that he should somehow be penalised for 'failure' and has done nothing worth praising is ridiculous.

Who do you mean?. Mon and Lambert. Most people wanted them. Gerald Houllier was a manager of some pedigree. Only Alex McCleish you could argue was a poor choice. What does the etc mean?
