Wait until you find out about the string.

Alastair has football experience Trevor has football experience Richard (safety officer) has football experience But DC never listens to what they've got to say so...are they the advisors?

Well you've all made my Dad (a Stokie) very happy. So there's that.

Dejphon's stance on selling Sheffield Wednesday has evolved over time, reflecting the club's changing circumstances and his personal experiences as owner. Past Statements: December 2018: Chansiri announced he was putting the club up for sale during a fans' forum, citing financial challenges, including a transfer embargo due to breaches of Financial Fair Play rules. He expressed belief that many would be interested in purchasing the club. January 2019: He revealed rejecting offers ranging from £30 million to £175 million, suggesting that his earlier statement about selling was more a response to fan dissatisfaction than a firm intent to sell. September 2023: Chansiri declared he would cease funding the club, expressing frustration over personal insults directed at him and his family. While stating the club wasn't officially for sale, he indicated openness to serious offers, emphasizing the need for professionalism in any potential sale process. Recent Developments: As of April 2025, the club faces renewed financial difficulties, including unpaid player salaries in March, leading to potential sanctions from the English Football League. Chansiri has contributed significantly to the club's finances, but fans are increasingly questioning his ability to sustain funding. Reports suggest he appears more open to selling the club than in the past, marking a pivotal moment for Sheffield Wednesday's future. Previously, Chansiri's declarations about selling were often reactive, stemming from immediate pressures or criticisms. In contrast, current indications point to a more proactive and serious consideration of a sale, driven by ongoing financial challenges and a desire for the club to have a sustainable future.

Interesting that he now wants an interpreter after refusing for so long.

When I was employed at the club I questioned the senior team as to why he had the run of the training ground and stadium. I asked did he need an ID card so he could get through the doors? I was told to get him an access card but with no photo or details on it. He's all very mysterious but he's very close to DC.

Yes absolutely. Every chairman or owner since 1974 has had a responsibility to install and maintain a man safe system. The fact we are 10 years in to Chansiri's reign he doesn't really have an excuse.

I'm certainly not saying that. What I am saying is that he was fully aware that they were missing and should've been installed under his leadership. I am unsure if the club ever seriously considered installing man safe systems but they definitely don't exist.

It's easy to say that, but most people can't afford to just walk out of a job at the drop of a hat. . Despite it being unsafe, one feels obliged to do it because you need the cash. Especially if you have a wife and family to support. Getting fired for not doing the job isn't an option. If I didn't do as ordered I'm finished.

Why you mad Bro?

Fun fact about that. It's something like glue that's stuck on the roof. That's why it won't come off easily. I think there was a quote to paint over it but they wanted to scaffold the stand and the cost was...A LOT. Surprisingly DC said no.

Holy danger of death batman! I'm sure you had a harness and proper fall arrest in place so you didn't die. Right? RIGHT? (Sarcasm. I know better!)

Never dared go up on the Leppings Lane end. Fortunately I was never required to. A good friend of mine did though - he had to fix the floods on the front of the stand. Jump of faith!

Scarily accurate.

Been there done that. "Don't step on the skylights or it'll be the last step you ever take. Also don't slip off the edge."
