Fair play, so.

I always liked the way they rhymed Quin with ton in their song based on Bob Dylan's song made famous over here by beat combo Manfred Man.

Come on without
Come on within
You've not seen nothing
Like the mighty Evertin

Burnley used to sing that about the mighty brian flynn

Didn't Blues do the same with Fred Pickering.

Warwickshire fans did in the 90's with Asif Din.

Cambridge undergrads sing it about Anais Nin.

Lerner's incompetence will reap its just rewards when we drop. He can forget about selling for £200m or £150m - Morgan can't even get £40m for Wolves and has dropped the price to £30m. On the downside it means we're probably stuck with Lerner for even longer

This is why relegation is such a frightening concept. It's taken a decade of bungled decision making to arrive at this point. The consistent feature of Lerner's tenure is his unfailing ability to fuck up. I do not expect him to wise up in the championship. We can expect more crap decisions, half arsed appointments in all positions at the club and general muddled thinking from the top. We're stuck with the twat indefinitely when we go down because I can't for a second see him dropping his asking price

Except we're not because he's appointed someone to do it all for him so he doesn't need to wise up, he needs Hollis to prove to be competent and regardless of anything being said in anger right now there is nothing to suggest he won't be (there's also nothing to suggest he will be but I refuse to take that to mean he's a guaranteed failure as so many seem to have done).

I can't see anyone wanting to buy us at present. Just look at wage bill and the lengths of the contracts.  These are big liabilities that any new owner would consider.  Could the players be moved on ? Even if we offered to give some of them away would they want to leave or just see out their contracts while picking up stupid money from us.

Hollis a man with no experience in  football whatsoever, a man so imbued with enthusiasm for the project, it took several months of persuasion to get him on board; he's good with spreadsheets apparently from his time with KPMG. We've hired a plumber to change an alternator.
His apparent denial of sufficient funds in January window to the manager suggests his employed with a clear agenda, cut costs. He bears all the  hallmarks of being another shite Lerner appointment. I've no confidence in him to arrest the slide, let alone instigate a turnaround in fortunes

Yes, every new appointment means Year Zero.

I like how we've learnt the lessons of the past, handing out huge, long term contracts to crap players and done the same again with Gabby, Bacuna and Westwood. The only difference being we have less income now so the contracts aren't as big. Either way we are stuck with them for another 4 years unless someone has a massive brain fart, which doesn't seem likely unless Lerner takes over another club after us and employs some more idiots.

With Lerner's track record of appointments wouldn't Ground zero be a more apt term...

Good of you to give him a chance to do anything before you decide he's a waste of space.

In fairness, he has been here long enough to go through a transfer window and has proved himself to be inept in it.
