I think problem will be opposite.

People will be too sycophantic towards them like they were with Chansiri and shout down even the mildest of criticism towards them.

 

Of course welcome anyone who takes over but hope many dont act almost like teengirls at a boy band concert many did 10 years ago.

Nobody will moan about the Waltons!

I'll prove you wrong.  The Waltons have $432 billion in the bank as a family and Walmart made $15 billion net profit in 2024.  The family wealth and the business profitability has been - and continues to be - built on paying below average wages.  There are no accurate figures for the percentage of their workforce who NEED FOOD STAMPS TO SURVIVE, but Walmart, like Sports Direct, is recognised as a high profit company and a low paying employer. They do give back, but, personally, I baulk at billionaire philanthropy paid for by the poorest. I would prefer owners with a greater sense of their social responsibility.  For me, football's governing bodies have led us in the wrong direction and it should be all about fan ownership.  I can moan about anyone, except my wife.

I doubt there will be anybody that our devoted following will object to. 

Cant be any worse than he who can't be named. 

Can they? 😳

Sorry mate but some will moan if it’s, for example, Mike Ashley.

You can't please all the people all of the time. 

Almost... Almost.... Anybody will be better than him who can't be named.

How many people on here are gonna moan about them straight away saying that the admins have made the wrong decision!!  I hope there's none 'cos I'm lovin' the positivity around the club at the mo, but you just can't please everyone!!

If they don't announce a Director of Football in their opening statement to fans, I will be very upset with them. It marks them as 'wrong 'uns' straight away as far as I'm concerned.

 

If they don't sign Amass and Shay Charles  on the second day, that's it as far as I'm concerned. Boycott all games until they do.

 

No, I don't think I'm being unreasonable at all. Far from it. lol

No.

they have no bias or say in whom.

as long as they are not of banned states eg russia or unlikely to pass for other  political reasons they simply accept the highest bid. If thats by 1p then so be it

They really dont. Read the updates mate
