Barry Hearn

[perseus]

Barry Hearn did a superb interview on SCR before the game.

 

[smudge]

What did he say?
Last time we were in the same league as them I heard him talking about Brighton. He said that he wished he could play us at their place every week as it was a license to print money.

(yeah, & for us it's usually 3 points Barry!)

 

[Jesus Gul]

Didn't he try to get us chucked out of the league following the 4-4 game pitch invasion when some Brighton idiot had a go at our Caretaker Manager's brother.

 

[perseus]

He said something like:

1) The 4-4 draw was great entertainment
2) The ref bottled by giving us a penalty (we all knew that anyway)
3) The local Councils do NOT give enough support to their local clubs. Just a lot of waffle and no useful action.
4) He feels sorry for Chelsea supporters as their club has lost its soul

 

[Safeway]

He's still a **** though.

 

[Harty]

..........Said a spokesperson

Yes, and it would have been interesting to know what Ray Wilkins, who ran the game, thought about this at the time.

 

[Trish]

He also said he'd settle for a draw in yesterday's match.
Sorry Barry.

 

[Zesh Rehman]

[looney]

He's still a **** though.
