Quote from: olaftab on April 18, 2016, 06:16:26 PMI don't want to sound ageist but do we really want a couple of 70 year olds making some fundamental decisions about the future of the club? They should have been non exec directors if any thing at all in the first place. I trust Bevington and Sir Brian. The news about sale is very hopeful as well.Unbelievable.

It's entirely possible the board recommended a manager, his wages, a transfer budget and a need for paying off certain poisonous players' contracts to get them out of the club, and Lerner said no to all of it.

By a number of posters, and they all had the ability to do it like adults. It was not petty, it was politely asking you to stay within site rules. However now, I am telling you to stay within them or you'll be posting elsewhere.

And is Randy really going to sanction the great cull of players this club so badly needs to rid it of such poison? We'll see.

We'll see.If that was an accurate summation then it's got an air of flouncing off about it, I could see someone like Collymore doing it but men of the calibre of King?I'm not so sure

Well I personally think he's dumping us like some junk bonds and there is a willing buyer ready to say yes
