S.A.F.C. - the future

It's pathetic mate. Bob has given me plenty of info that has come true. He got all our January signings right, to the letter.

 

I didn't overdo it last night. Drank more on the Wednesday when I got the message. Saying that, still had a good few yday.

 

Not too bad. I think it was all just a huge relief for me. A nice bottle of Gavi and some big sighs of relief then an emotional poem before bed. Ready to find out a few more details today hopefully.

 

I think what annoys people about Madbob is the ridiculously cryptic nature of a lot of his posts. But more annoying is when he says "I do know what's happening, I PMed people about it". Often comes across as "I know what's happening but I'm not telling you lot", which is bound to wind people up and sounds like the kind of thing a school kid would say, rather than a fully grown bloke. Either tell people what you can (while protecting sources etc, like plenty on here do) or don't bother and just PM/ text your mates. To use the mates in the pub analogy it would be like 2 or 3 of your mates constantly sharing and referring to some sort of inside joke all night, while you're just sat there thinking "why did you bother inviting me if I'm not going to be involved in the discussion, you irritating bellend"

That being said he is harmless enough and I do think some of the stick he gets is over the top. Thought it was a shame he was getting grief for the "today or tomorrow" post because I was glad he finally made a post people could understand but then got grief for it not being completely accurate. Given that KLD was seen at the match late that day its obvious things were happening and they probably did expect to announce then

 

It's like the Spanish Inquisition, day after day, with a clique of idiots desperately trying to trip you up.

 

Yep,couldn't let the occasion go by yesterday without raising a glass or two in the evening! Mixture of excitement and relief.
Took the edge off it a bit not being able to be with family and mates,but that will have to wait for the time being.Something else to look forward to!

 

Rodwell has gone.

 

Wow! New CEO! Any ideas?

Booooom

 

Class this like, KLD wielding the axe.

FWIW apart from that season ticket fiasco I dont think Rodwell did a bad job all things considered, but no room for old guard sentiment. Get them out.

 

Get in. Shambles of a bloke

 

They are certainly not hanging around with restructuring the club

 

TBH, he has done ok behind the scenes in very difficult circumstances.

That said, it's clear that it's the KLD show now and anyone now with him is out. His way or the high way, I was told. He wants to remove any reminders of incompetence and failure and bring his own people in. That's to be expected I guess but I love the swiftness of it all.

 

Agree,Rodwell did a very difficult job well. However,good to see a clean sweep taking place....wonder if the marquee appointment we've been told about waiting to come in?

 

Is the new CEO ready to come, mate. And is it a biggun.

 

Bye bye Jim, thanks for the farce of the season tickets and supporting project big picture.

Nice to see another comment from Donald as well

 

This bloke has not come to mess about

 

I just don't understand this, he's the one who's going to be Donald's agent, inside the club, while he pulls the strings from afar ...

... I know that's the truth because I've seen it posted, a thousand times, on a forum not far from here.

Surely that wasn't just a total fabrication based on no information whatsoever.
