Yes, the alleged gangsters.
Seventeen million would buy quite a few Billy Sharps. I don't know about whether it's "moral" or not, but since you and others have made the point that some of our competitors have multimillionaire owners, I just thought I'd point out that so do we. I think if I bought a football club and then boasted about not putting a penny of my own money in, gave every impression of taking money out of the club, and allowed the club to wallow in mediocrity while insulting the supporters, I would expect to be criticized heavily by those same supporters. I'm not sure what the point of owning a football club is if it's not to try to win.

I could have sworn Abramovich paid Bates "multi" millions for Chelsea. So he's a multimillionaire too. (Not to mention his "backers.")

Remember he got his big move to Sheff Utd a few years ago and failed. Even if we doubled our transfer pot he would represent 10% before wages There are much hotter properties around like Rhodes at huddesfield -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> ] On Behalf Of rhys hodge Sent: 30 January 2012 20:53 To: [email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> Subject: Re: [LU] 24 Hours A club showing a bit of ambition for a final push to the Premier, unlike us, just treading water, and happy to use the user, us supporters to line their pockets or should I say abuse the user. cheers Rhys --- On Tue, 31/1/12, Matt Anderson <[email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> > wrote: From: Matt Anderson <[email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> > Subject: RE: [LU] 24 Hours To: "'rhys hodge'" <[email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> >, [email protected] ><http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, 31, January, 2012, 9:47 AM £1.8m for sharp who is reunited with atkins who knows him from Scunny. 3.5 year deal -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> ] On Behalf Of rhys hodge Sent: 30 January 2012 20:43 To: [email protected] <http://nz.mc960.mail.yahoo.com/mc/[email protected]> Subject: Re: [LU] 24 Hours Whilst down at Southampton I hear they have apparantly done o deal for Billy Sharp, whilst we continue to inspire trolling around for broken down loan players.
