    Who lost an argument? I think with the points myself, Swaledale have made, we have put this thread to bed.
    You live in a bubble fella.. Do you talk to yourself at home?

    By alluding to the fact that I have a mental illness, you once again confirm my statement about your posts.
    Also do you ever finish a post without an insult?

    So successful businessmen tend to think their way is the right way, well I guess so otherwise they would be unsuccessful businessmen.
    Unbelievable post

    Mm lets see, Ashley at Newcastle, Oystons at Blackpool, that Thai guy at Cardiff, all successful in their own businesses, but would you say they have been successful at running the football clubs??

    Marcus Evans has been in charge at Ispwich for eons and is a local man and successful businessman, yet Ipswich have done no better and arguably worse than Derby over recent years under GSE - all I'm saying is "local" and "successful businessman" are not criteria that mean the club will be successful.[/quote]
    Ok lets analyses your comments

    Why does everyone assume it's black and white..

    Of course there are examples of both.. Just because it works in some instances does not mean it will work all the time.

    I am all for a local guy with the right mentality over some random middle eastern nutter but Swaley is right, Mel has no real experience as a chaiman at a football club.

    Everything is a risk, Morris / Clement.. One or both of them may well work but to suggest that just because he is local it's a sure fire winner is wrong.

    To be fair to Mel Morris he's more savvy business wise than most of the muppets you get playing with football clubs. And at the end of the day football is a business these days.

    The only problem I see potentially with this is he does what Lionel did and stop thinking with his head and following his heart. I think most people loved that Lionel did that but it back fired at the end and cost him and the club.

    I'm sure this wont happen with Mel as there are a number of others involved and think/hope he's seen and learn from others lessons
