Agree. It's the one thing I'm opposed against so far from the new ownership. I just don't see what the role is. Would the DoF choose players to buy? If so, what if the manager disagrees with those choices? Does the DoF deal with contracts and wages etc? If so, couldn't the CEO deal with that? I don't think any manager gets involved with contracts at all anyway. The manager should deal with all on pitch aspects of the club. That includes which players to sign. I can't see how a DoF can get involved in that. Edit: To me, a DoF is like a manager for the manager, and a good manager doesn't need managing. Does that make sense? Markus, if you're reading this, I say NO!

Apart from empty seats, nothing. But I think the idea is to fill the ground isn't it?

Right. So you mean if you go on your own to the ticket office, can you buy more than one ST? Sorry, I don't know Ring 'em before you go

Why? How big are ya?

Oh dear. Silly boy Stu.

Well said SS.

Duh! Those 'pair' tickets are priced in each column. Brainfart

As only Centre, Wings/Northam and Family enclosure are mentioned, I can only assume that The chapel is now the Family enclosure. Maybe those 'pair' tickets are only available at that end?

My favourite line from the statement is this "Our search will be conducted in a systematic and professional manner. We will find the right candidate, who will fulfil the criteria necessary to move the Club forward." No messing about saying we've spoken to manager a, and manager b etc. It will be done in private, and done right.

Coppel. Gotta be. He can do it.

Coppel for me too.

Or Orange?

Oh and I think they have someone else already. Wouldn't be surprised to hear by the weekend. I hope people aren't coming here for the money though. I mean, who knows what the wage structure will be like now. I think the lure should be the ambition and the challenge.

Mark, good luck to you. You behaved impeccably throughout all of this. You're a gent, but football is football, and I'm afraid we now have new ambitions and horizons.

Bump....

Ridiculous thread

Is that so outlandish now? Hmmm? Isn't it?

I was thinking about a mosiac for the first game, but with a the swiss cross on it.

This is like signing a £2m keeper! Kelvin, I shake your hand. Good on ya.

If ML is markus liebherr, then who is AI?

No, but it was up until fairly shortly. It's the family init?

There IS a link: The port and the Liebherr business therein. But maybe, just maybe, he's just a nice guy who wanted to help us out

Ambassador role I would imagine. It sounds like Matt is committed to another season with Sky Sports now. I'm not bothered either way really. He's a playing legend in my eyes and always will be. He doesn't need to be involved with the club permanently imo.

Link doesn't work.

He looks a trustworthy guy doesn't he? Reminds me of Richard Attenborough. Yes, that's it, he's santa claus
