I can see how you'd say that if you view it superficially, and don't know the reality. I was privy to details back then. The overspend on Staplewood was double digit millions. There was a lot of other stuff too. He oversaw our ascent and for that we can all we grateful, but sadly he was the author of his own downfall.

Don't be a prick mate, it's a top flight club. If he was shit as you say, he'd be off to a lower league club.
-
The kid left here because he wanted to play, and has moved again because he wants to play. Where's the poor attitude in a player wanting to earn his wages?
-
Yeah, he must be awful to be getting a move to another top flight club. That happens to poor players. Or something.
-
Not sure what the issue is. The owner will have control of the club and have paid at least 20% less for the privelige. Kat still has shares which under new ownership may increase in value. Sounds like a win for both of them without any negative impact on the club/team.

I was feeling optimistic until then.

So buying bargains and mugging buyers off. Livramento. Vestergaard.
-
Interesting thought. Has there been any mention of him continuing to be involved with FC Midtjylland? Them becoming part of the group seems logical.
-
We'll also see if they've been replaced with any alternative charge(s). Ankersen was a consultant at Brentford I believe, but that could be for a variety of reasons.
-
Cortese was good at spending the owners money, and spending more than he had authority too. Fortunately we now have more considered people with their hands on the wheel.
-
Where does that come from? Semmens has been running a club reliant on its income so he's needed to duck and dive to keep us going, and be as competitive as possible. Part of that has meant we've needed to sell, but it's more than a stretch to say that anyone wants us to sell our talent. Hopefully we'll have more cash to work with now.

Although the jury is out on the new owner (purely as he's an unknown quantity) this guy is a class act. He has worked wanders at Midtjylland and Brentford, speaks well, is a passionate "proper" football man, and seems very tuned in to us fans. Interesting times ahead.
-
I'm with you on this. Potter is doing superbly with an average squad. He's got a big future.
-
Redmond hasn't got that turn and ball in him. That's quality that we just don't have in our 10's. Broja, yep, but Armstrong or Adams wouldn't have put that chance away.
-
That was a cracking goal from Ings. Superb turn and ball from Buendia. Quality that we lack unfortunately.
-
That is so sad, gutted for him. He's a really nice lad and has worked so hard to get back to fitness. I hope the next chapter of his life is a good one.

Similar for me although I'd swap Leicester for Chelsea. I find Chelsea boring to watch, whereas Leicester games nearly always have a lot of action and they play with a bit of attitude and pace.

Indeed Weston, little doubt about it.

Yep. This clip highlights that. https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/competitions/premier-league/12505656/ref-watch-should-spurs-goals-have-stood Happy New year back to you.
