The club has spent way more than it should have to try and get out of this division. To suggest the owner lacks ambition to do so is utter nonsense from the mouth of a proven nonsensical clown. It's not like Xia can just whip out another 50m for a laugh because the rules prohibit us from doing so. Fry is such a tool.

More players was always his answer though. They had more players than regular matchgoers at times in his tenure there.

Shame again on the shite b.mail for re-hashing such tripe! (I only read Fry's words on this thread, I wouldn't contemplate reading that rag)

The B.Mail.
Probably the only news outlet in the country that despises the population/area it serves.

As for Fry, did we expect anything different from that sad, old twat. All he has done is confirm what most people think about him.

I remember he had 44 first team players on the books at SHA once.  Including Foley Okenle.

I like Barry Fry. He's harmless and there's not many people left in football who aren't humourless nerks.

[kippaxvilla2]

I agree.  44 players was hilarious as well as peeing against the floodlights.

Another possible theory (besides Fry singing the praises of Steve Bruce). If he really is Steve Bruce's friend (and they've spoken to each other) it could be possible that Fry is trying to help his mate by out calling out our owner in the press to try to help put pressure on him to release some additional funds?  I'm not saying that's correct but it's not totally beyond the realms of possibility.

Barry Fry was good fun as Barnet manager when I watched them play non league v Cheltenham as a nipper.

Barry Fry is one of those that speaks without thinking, the journalist dream.  Was always v entertaining when he was Blues manager with his 400 players & peeing in the corners :-)

40 player squad? Sure that's all the rage now, Chelsea usually have at least half that number out on loan at any one time. Years ahead of everyone was Baz.

A poor man’s Harry Redknapp in terms of managerial ability but cut from the same cloth. In the grand scheme of things not particularly relevant and ultimately harmless.

Different to Harry Redknapp in that he doesn't come across as a massive ******.

Same here, even when he was at Blues I found him hard to dislike.

I used to play in the same football team as his son, and Barry always seemed a decent bloke.

And he didn't buy you?  Fucking hell, how shit must you have been?
