At the time of the ruination of BHA nobody had ever heard of Dick Knight he hadn't ever shown any indication of being in a position to take over the club. The supporters were desperate for ANYBODY to take over the club and would have backed them irrespective of their financial standing.
I have conceeded that DK has surpassed my expectations and survived longer than I thought he would as he has been 'bailed out ' many times when the financial state has become dire but how many more times can this happen?
As regards his dedication as a supporter I do not think anybody could dispute that.
He bought us back to Brighton well done. What was the alternative as he couldn't get another ground to play at!
He has employed managers who have given us promotions and must take the credit for that.
As I have said many times nobody can knock what he has done but that is in the past I am looking to the future and as yet nobody has convinced me that he is the future.
It is common knowledge that there are two prominent wealthy people in Brighton who have expressed a wish to invest in the club but for reasons not known to us they have not been approached. Perhaps this is being kept on the burner until Falmer is approved and their money is needed.
Could you please tell me, so that I am better informed, what these marvellous proffessional attributes are that MP has that any person doing the same professional job, for which he is being well paid,wouldn't have.
I hope that the notion that I am or was a supporter of those three will be killed for ever.
Like EVERYBODY I want this club to have its own ground hopefully Falmer simply because refusal could be critical and I belive possibly terminal.
I do not have the money but I can sleep at night knowing that I have done all I can to help and approached people who do have and tried my hardest to get them to invest. Perhaps selling isn't my strongest point!
I am not quite sure where my supposed arrogance comes into it
