End of an era?

[wendun]

Wendun, you need to understand that your posts neither shock nor impress most posters. Ok, one or two rise to it, but the majority flick through your stuff and move on.

What return is Stewart making from the club? The accounts are out there on the web and so you should be able to give hard figures. The fact is that the club loses money and he covers those losses by various means.

He chooses to do that and gets a fair bit of stick because he has limits to the amount that he is willing to put in. It's fair to say that he gets a bit of kudos too, but it is very expensive kudos.

Kerr, I never read most posters comments. At 69 and posting against the tide on MM since 2004 it's laughable to suggest I'm out to shock or impress "most posters". Who gives a f*ck. I simply post what I feel is true. If I'd wanted to be popular I could have joined the Whitby gang, cooked chickens with beer cans up their rrse, eulogised the Brave 500 and kissed Stewart's ample rrse.

Must be a bit rum Monts old lad, whether you care or no, to know that the vast majority of fans on here, far left to far right, feel that you're views are so lacking in credibility that they think you are trolling.

Not a very strong or justifiable reply that. You are right in that it's all down to what Stewart wants to put in but boy as he just shot himself in the foot to the tune of £5 Million + for not investing that bit extra in January.

If he'd have shelled out $29K for a Bit.coin on January 1st he could cash it in today and get $58K. With that in mind Brin, why don't you cough up $58K and buy one today because there's no doubt it'll be worth $116K by the end of the year. After all, you have to speculate to accumulate

Fair point Brin on the fact that not taking the risk in heavier investment of his own money costing more than if he'd taken that investment and succeeded. Gambled asks won if you like. How much did Stewart invest in January with the loans he did bring in and how much of his money would you count as "that bit extra"with which you'd be happy?

Raging, mon ami, as your vision of a socialist Utopia evaporates I would have thought you'd had better things to worry about than me. How is it that you and Roly always know what "the vast majority of fans on here" think? MM is not anyway representative of Millers fans. It comprises Brave 500 hardcore, ex-pats and condescending metropolitan champagne socialists. Btw, I have no idea what "trolling" is but since 2004 on MM I have consistently argued for fans' control of clubs and against tinpot dictators like Stewart.

I think that this board is pretty much a cross section of Millers supporters from many backgrounds and points of view. But away from this board, as a lifelong Miller brought up on home and away trips I know loads of miles fans that dont post in here. None of them are on the extremes that you take, nor on the other extreme that Warne is faultless.

The vast majority, in fact I don't know any that think otherwise, acknowledge that Stewart is doing the right thing with steady investment but ultimately making sure we live within our means in order to keep our club safe, they recognise the dark places we've been in for most of our lifetimes supporting our club and the main thing is ensuring our long term future whilst investing what he feels is the right amount for himself to keep us challenging.

And (still only anecdotally I know) they recognise that Warne has made mistakes, has much to learn, plays not great football but on balance is a good bet for working within our means to get the best out of the budget we have. I'm probably one of the most cynical on Warne, I feel he is limited and prone to make quite significant game errors that have cost us. But on balance I have to say that we would struggle to get someone that would do better on our budget and, most significantly, could get much, much worse that could very easily send us back to the dark ages.

This is just stupid. I just don't understand why supporters from the far left to the crazy right all leap to defend our beloved leader. Stewart gets the kudos. Ordinary fans on MM don't. Stewart's property company gets an excellent return on investment in NYS. Ordinary fans on MM don't. The guy may be a great light bulb maker. Personally I don't give a flying frick. But as chairman of a football club he's useless. His corner shop mentality has seen us blow yet another opportunity. I've been watching the Millers since 1965 and I just don't see all this praise for Stewart is justified. I've watched better players, more entertaining teams, and had more excitement as a Miller on many many occasions than I have experienced under Stewart and Warne's dead hand. I just don't understand you lads. Next thing you'll be flying a giant blimp and voting him in as mayor. Pathetic.

Wendun. You really are getting worse. I have refrained from answering your, I am thinking of the word.... Drivel comes to mind. What the **** is up with you. You have the privilege to post on here and yet you abuse that freedom. Really, you do have a problem that needs addressing, and you do not belong on this message board. Rant over.

[harpo88]

Again. It’s all relative. Say Tony put in an extra £3m. Well in that parallel universe let’s say every other chairman put in an extra £3m. Then we’re worse off and still relegated. And who do we spend it on? Does an extra £2,000 a week say necessarily entice a group of players who otherwise wouldn’t fancy a relegation battle?
