    We achieved what we did despite him not because of him. Came in with nothing. Put nothing in. Walked away with around £200m.
    No time for the bloke whatsoever.
    Not with you, Whicka. He paid himself an average £1 million a year, which is same as any other Chairman. All he's done is sell his £175m Club to another bloke.
    "Where has all the money gone?" The outgoings of the Club are almost = the Income over his 15 years (or whatever).

    Exactly Al.

    It drives me nuts on here and on Radio WM when fans start crying...."where's all the £100m a year gone?

    HELLOOOOO.........it's gone on wages,we are one of the highest leveraged clubs in the Prem in terms of wages against turnover.

    Why can't people understand this simple fact?

    One of the ways you get around this problem is to produce your own quality youngsters,play them whilst paying them fairly poorly and then sell them on for s h I t loads like Southampton have done.

    We have a pathetically poor owner and a terrible chairman along with a pathetic recruitment guy and the useless Garlick.

    It's a shambles from top to bottom.

    My thoughts! It's easy to blame the captain ( manager ) whether it's Pulis, Pardew or Barry Fry who could be next. The real culprits are the Board/Owner who are rotten to the core - in plain old English - they are a useless pathetic bunch of W ANKERS!!!!!
