Guest sicko2ndbest Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Definitely on the way. Well done Derek and Ash. Great window and great value for money! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 If we bring in another striker before the window shuts or in Jan, as well as anything else that may need strengthening, and buy Ben Arfa, and stay up, then I'd be willing to wipe the slate clean.

That well-respected DOF brought us Chris Hughton, man. He did do some good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Nope, and I'll like them even less, if they manage to stick SD signs all over the outside od SJP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 The we dont care about Ashley song was aired today. I think we should survive comfortably after witnessing todays game. In view of the signings this week (which I never thought would be allowed) it may be time to call an amnesty for a while and just get behind the team.

Guest malandro Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 No for me. They are still showing no respect for the club (naff SD signs on SJP) and they are still showing no respect for the supporters (stupid ticketing policy for the singing section). Nor do we have any idea what their long term plans are for the club. To sum up. I don’t trust them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I think they have improved. They let Hughton do his business, they're dealing with transfers behind the scenes like it should be - at the moment I can't complain much. Having said that, we all know that, come the end of the transfer window, it still could be a case that they fuck everything up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 The key question for me is - if Ashley was to sell the club tomorrow, would he be leaving it in a better state than when he found it? It's too early in the season to answer that, but in a few months' time, I think the answer will be a definite yes. As for what's happened in the past, I've never felt that he was entirely to blame, so the question doesn't mean much to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You back them trying to control what the crowd sings then, I take it. For what other reason do you think it a good idea? How are they controlling what the crowd sings? After a few unsavoury incidents up there from a group it appears the best way of controlling who is up there. I said at the time I didn't think the Cockney Rapist banner was doing anyone any favours, and it's proven to be the case. Fwiw I think they're still the cheapest seats in the ground except for the family enclosure? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 If we beat Blackpool and get one or two more bodies in before Tuesday then I'll be optimistic about the club and where we're headed. It shouldn't have needed relegation to sort us out but that's the way it's worked out. I'll never get too carried away because it'll only take a couple of injuries or bad defeats to change the mood. They need to continue to put things right though. Shouldn't rest on their laurels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By controlling who's up there they can try and control what they sing and do. Why else would they want to control it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Never hated them. Most of the mistakes have been down to naivity, not malice or greed. Their policy of investment and slow growth since nobody took up the invitation for local investment is sound, and their work reinventing the club and getting the right people in place (whether by luck or judgement) and supporting them since the series of fuckups that saw us go down has been admirable. I hope the learning continues, things like the open days are continued and expanded on, and if they still wish to sell up, that the transition is smooth. If they stick with the club though, stay out of the limelight, and don't act like tits and balls it up but help it to become a force again, they will have my full support.

They've made some terrible mistakes but they're finally starting to make ammends, slowly but surely. I'm not saying forget the past, but it's getting a bit tedious constantly digging and criticising everything move that is made. We look like we're finally headed in the right direction and if we continue that way then I'm happy enough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Mongo Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 They have a chance if the club continues to progress the next few seasons. I don't particularly care that the club is being run by two absolutely despicable cretins, I care about which direction it's heading. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 They are getting better, it's unclear who has been responsible for transfers this Sumner but whoever it is the board obviously have to take some credit as they have appointed them. I still don't trust them but if this summer is anything to go by they have found someone who can perform miracles from button budgets so luck or judgment they have done well one way or another.

buzza Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I also think they are learning from their mistakes, I also think all of this low key stuff is to try and cut out the irritating comments that get our backs up. Good transfer window, excellent if we get another striker, but well satisfied with this as i thought we would be getting zilch decent signings...
