Well done Joe. Still don't want you here full time, but well done nonetheless. Toon from far away: I think we're getting a mix of Allardyce and Keegan here tbh. We've hoofed it at times aye but we're also playing some decent passing on the deck.

Clean Sheet, Martins brace, home win. Well done lads.

"So who's going to buy the club? We haven't a clue but we'll post like we do."

Yes I know that's why I said "apart from". Joe may know more than he's telling, may have been told he'll get little (if anything) in Jan, and to make plans to that effect.

Apart from the bit about xisco and enrique it makes perfect sense.

http://www.sports-direct-international.com/main.asp?pid=2 There are more underlings in that company to deal with communication and not every release needs a quote from him.

Right, I guess my thought on a ticket is that you're first and foremost purchasing a seat and whatever happens to the money is out of your direct control so I don't consider it investing any more than purchasing an iPod is investing in apple. I guess that still came off sounding dickish in my original post so apologies. As for his professionalism, non-communication is a pretty standard tactic in hostile environments. It's not "being the bigger man" or "turning the other cheek", no, I just said I don't blame him because I'd do the same. I'm a petty bastard myself.

I have three years of my money invested in this club, as have many others. Regardless of some fans' actions (or inactions, in my case), I feel I have the right to know what's going on - at least in more detail than has been the case. It's hardly rocket science to recognise there are more than the few thousand at SJP who protested that day who care about the club. Alright, small aside here and not to be too large an asshole about it but I take exception to using the term investing. You've bought a season ticket not stocks or a government bond. Gussying it up as "investing" is just a ridiculous semantic illusion to try and put the weight of a financial transaction larger than "purchased a good" behind it. As for whether or not you or anyone "deserves" to know what's going on I think it's a bit too late for formal and polite conversation. Again, he's already been forced into selling, why bother separating the wheat from the chaff at this point? "To all the people who weren't dickheads: the sale is progressing nicely. To all the dickheads: fuck you and your mother." ? It's a taste of their own medicine thrown back at them and they find it hard to swallow. We'll know about the sale when we know about it. Do you know they haven't? I don't. I don't know as they have either so I can't and won't bring that into consideration.

Parade around a stadium with "Cockney Mafia Out" banners, stage protests and boycotts and then wonder why word from the top isn't forthcoming? No, it wasn't all supporters but once the damage is done why try to pick apart who to talk to and who not to? I wouldn't if I was Mike, tbh.

In the discussion of footballing mentality I would think the nations N. Ireland, Ireland, Scotland and Wales would fall under the umbrella of "domestic" while Spain, Italy, France, Netherlands, Portugal et al, would be "foreign". Granted there's differences on the various "domestic" nations, but as a whole they're remarkably similar when compared to the "foreign" tag. But then I'm treating the argument as an approach to football or footballing mentality and not birthplace so ...

Then he pulls a Doug Ellis and haunts SJP through cycles of promotion and relegation for 30 years, skulking about in the shadows, wearing half a mask and playing organ music at night.

No I meant increasing his "pain" in hanging on a bit - nothing violent but affecting SD sales as a fair alternative. Right but it's complete speculation as to how much he's selling at. 300m? 200m? 450m? All figures that have been reported and probably the truth is in there somewhere, but why take action given such incomplete information? Put another way, if no buyer is found could a group be so certain that it was the asking price -- barring of course something like quotes from a sheik.
-
Mike Ashley's not daft. He doesn't want to be here anymore, and if he can't sell at the price he's quoting, he'll lower it himself. Protesting and boycoutts won't affect that decision. How would it even go? "Mike, the supporters group got together and we've decided the £475m figure in all the papers is way too high and you should lower it."

Whatever keeps butt out of the middle of the park tbh.
