You really need to get out more...

And my dad is bigger than yours...

He employed Sturrock and promoted Wigley and Gray too. Your point is ???:rolleyes:

And I make no apologies for that. The person who gets paid a huge amount to run the company and awards himself generous dividends in good times takes the responsibility and falls on his sword in bad times. Especially as much of our downfall was completely avoidable (I do NOT buy into this theory that relegation was inevitable somewhen - its defeatist comfortable excuse-making bollllocks) It goes with the territory, and Lowe knows the game as well as anyone, and chose to run SFC like a service-providing company with the fans as its custom-base; despite his recent efforts to blame everything on Crouch, the financial issues started when we were relegated, not later. As I indicated yesterday, people trying to define the events as having been "complex" are making pathetic excuses. Our entire problems have been down to power greed and ego.

You dont have to read them. I will blame the people whose incompetence got us relegated and whose incompetence blew the clubs wealth with zero return, and you and your ilk can carry on blaming the Muffin Man...

Presumably they are "good points" because you agree with them. Many of us would call them blind dogma.

Indeed. I somewhat pity the desperation of certain individuals frantically digging through the anals of footballing history to say "See ? We're no worse than xxx team" in order to divert attention away from or excuse Lowe's incompetence.

Maybe we should call Roopert "Cuddles" from now on. Difficult to imagine our erstwhile chairman sounding like a Mancunian mong, though.....

This theory that it can happen to anyone because it happened to Manyoo is utter nonsense. It happened to Manyoo in the 70's because at that time Manyoo were shiite. A club like Manyoo would never fall so far, the analogy is codswallop because we have never scaled the heights they have. :rolleyes:

Not at all. Only it happened to us due to sheer incompetence and arrogance. And I fail to see what a Manyoo season half-a-lifetime away has to do with this.

"I aaate that doook"

No, its the same old story that there is only room for his ego in his dressing room, and he bitterly resents others that become bigger than he is in the eyes of the public. Bizarre (man-)management ethic, I reckon...

Same goes for every thread where you dare to question the Universal Truth of Burley's Footballing Genius-come-God Status...

What a load of Grade A, unambitious, get-Lowe-off-the-hook excuse making. The financial climate changed so much that in less than 2 years that we went from 8th to 24th in the financial stakes, did it ?

Yep, dont agree with someone, question their mental health. Quality, mature posting.

Nope, just not wasting my time on you. I, unlike you, contibute financially and on football matters to this site. You just come here to abuse me 3 times a day...

Let me know when you try this one, wonchya ? I have never tried to abuse you via your family, for example.

If the club had not been run by a mixture of ego, arrogance and incompetence for the last 5 years, we would have "held on" even longer, perhaps to the point where the credit crunch would have started levelling-off the playing field significantly and we could have started competing again. Instead, we're looking over our shoulder and wondering if we will still be in the fixture list for next season in any division, let alone the CCC. So sorry, I disagree..

No, I didnt. I said "I would have to say this too". As in, the same as whizzpop. Meaning the sale of Wayne Bridge. Meaning, Lowe did this and started the downhill slope. Your interpretation of "I would have to say this too" as meaning an event I had clearly already dismissed, being the start of the downhill, is just so completely a deliberate distortion to start an argument, or you see the world through some pretty tortuous-tinted glasses... In conclusion, you are weird.

Wow. Inspired and original. Impressive.

When is saintwarwick going to come to terms with the fact that Burley has gone, and that most people are pleased ?

What planet are you on saintwarwick ? I stated that I agreed - the decline started when Bridge was sold. You came back with a load of final positions as some sort of rebuttal of my coment (odd, we got relegated the end of the season Bridge was sold, so what relevance they have for my statement is baffling) and stated the decline started after we were relegated. So, not only is your response to my comment complete lunacy, but so is your opinion.

You obviously didnt read that properly. I was agrewing with Whizzpop that it was all downhill since Bridge was sold.. :rolleyes:

You said it. No-once else. Dont EVER lecture me about facts ever again, hypocrite.

hehehehehehehehehe
