Again, that’s so harsh. They have had sh*t owners for 15 years. Many clubs have been in that position, you can criticise the ownership but the whole club?
My Blues friends tell me that he’s just been sacked - as yet unconfirmed
Edit - the Mirror reporting it now so it must be true!

I saw it at the Duke of Yorks last week (they had a preview showing, not sure how that works)! It was very well done.

I’ve seen the NYE fireworks in Sydney a couple of times and once in Melbourne- honestly I preferred the ones in Melbourne! Never been to the London ones, other than from my armchair….

Of course there’s a long way to go yet and it might end up being something like Liverpool v Bayer...

To be fair, the owners do have a scooby. They have spent £20m already renovating the stadium that was falling apart, purchased land nearby that might be part of plans for a new stadium, set up a charity to give every kid in care in the city a Xmas present for starters, renovated the training...
