    Ive seen it mentioned that Donald is looking at a Spanish club, If he bought one, would he have to sell up here completely?

    I am in no doubt that with control being transferred to Kyril Louis-Dreyfus, whose family have a stellar track record in football club ownership, those fans can look forward to a bright future.”

    The "family" mentioned again

    There is going to be no "pissing about" put it that way.

    Rodwell grew on me too, mainly because he shut the **** up and I forgot about him

    I have a feeling today may be a busy day. He certainly isn't hanging around!

    This feels like such a massive last few days for our club. Please God they get it right and we start to see some good times

    I thought he was ****e. He should have resigned then if he was just following orders. You don’t piss off the majority of your paying customers when you need them.

    That'd be nice.
    For us obviously, not the poor buggers that get him as owner

    Done ok? It was his announcement that season ticket holders wouldn't get a refund if not allowed in the stadium that directly resulted in well in excess of 10 thousand fans cancelling their renewals.

    Goodbye and good riddance, I'm looking forward to season ticket offers being restarted now.

    Are we holding a press conference or is he a man of action over words?

    His season ticket **** up set the marker for me. The "pay up or **** off" narrative was a disgraceful way to treat the fans

    He screwed that up but I did here that he was good in the sale process. Plus the lobbying with EFL to ensure we got a good hand out.

    That said, glad he has gone. He didn't step down either. Booted down the stairs.

    With KLD being the Chairman with immediate effect do we need a new CEO?

    I'm not clued up on organisational structure to be honest
     
    #41057
  18. Could be a massive next few days as well mate. We'll get a new CEO very soon, steeped in football knowledge,experienced and respected,to be KLD right hand man.
    Can't wait to see all this unfold.:1980_boogie_down:

    Suppose it depends on how hands on KLD plans to be but usually you do have a CEO as well as a chairman. Again depends on how involved Speakmann will be in the financial side of things. In the past we've always had a CEO or a DoF handing transfers
