Good stuff Greg, and well done on your appointment but I fear it will all be swept under the carpet. My biggest concern right now is Steve Bruce and the worry he could break any progress that may or may not be made towards a beneficial takeover for all parties. I don’t think I’m alone in that view so how does that voice get heard if we can’t go to stadiums and the media won’t listen? If it was down to me I’d probably organise a virtual town hall on the subject with a handful of press invited to attend and observe, try to get the message out there that the fan base is very worried.

Didn’t Shepherd say he sacked Souness because all the players were just bumping into each other in the middle of the pitch?

You're having a laugh - I call my father old timer. It's a term of affection - they were actually pretty decent posters when not drivelling on about Shepherd. It wasn’t just that phrase the whole post just reeked of the superiority of youth. FWIW Manorpark has been posting on this forum for 13 years and whilst I have been aware of his existence until now I can’t really remember any particularly strong opinions on anything. Opinions on whatever are always kept where they are meant to be, on threads about the subject. Compare that to NE5, you’d be talking about Darren Ambrose scoring for Charlton and then suddenly the thread would be taken nicer by chain quotes about the board, with plenty of thrown in

CMA have just fined Compare the Market £18m for colluding with insurers to prevent lower insurance prices being advertised on other platforms. It’s not specifically relevant to us but is shows the extent of power that can be wielded, it’s not about compensating the fans, the rulings and fines can be pretty major if unfair practice is identified.

Thanks for proving my point darling. Cute that you put on your Hard man hat but then go running to mommy behind the scenes. Well if Thomas gets so angry so easily and aims abuse around. Nice one for breaking the forums confidentiality rule though. Considering Nobody is a moderator and not an Admin he wouldn’t even know if you had reported the abuse. So actually you’ve breached your own confidentiality and exposed yourself as a massive grass

It is not us specifically. A good analogy would be supermarkets, when I was a kid we had Sainsbury’s, Asda, Tesco, Morrisons/Safeway. Germans came along and spent a lot on establishing Aldi and Lidl. The big four all lost revenue and profits as a result. Difference here is that there is no regulator stopping the new supermarkets coming in and disrupting other established businesses. That’s the real issue the PL have created.
