Easy 10
Brain dead MUG SHEEP
Lets just say you get your wish, and Dick calls a press conference on Monday morning and says "bollocks to all this then, I'm off".
What then ?
Could someone please point me towards the queue of multi-millionaires winding their way from Brighton Station down to the club shop, all just ITCHING to lavish all their lovely cash on the Albion ? Sorry, I must have missed the multitude of offers from filthy-rich businessmen trying to take the club over and give us all their money. Where is OUR Abramovich ? Did Knight push him aside in 1997 ? Cos I didn't see anyone else wanting to take control of a homeless club at the bottom of the League, did you ?
Because of course in this financial climate, EVERYONE wants to invest in a 2nd division football club playing in a borrowed athletics stadium, don't they ? We're positively beating them off with our shitty sticks arn't we ? f*** me, this club should be ROLLING IN MONEY with the potential chairmen lining up to take us over. But nasty old Dick won't let them will he. Damn him to hell and back, eh ?
A little reality check here, because clearly some of you just don't GET IT.
1. Dick Knight is operating this club within its means. If you want to see what happens when you DON'T do this, just take a little look at Leeds Utd, Oldham or Notts County (for starters).
2. Dick Knight is an Albion fan. Thats right, we have a FAN in charge of the club, who is determined to look after its best interests. Can anyone here tell me what happened the last time we just had a BUSINESSMAN in charge of this football club ? Anyone ? Come on, don't be shy. What happened ? Tell me.
3. After bringing us back from some wilderness in Kent, Dick Knight has spearheaded the one and only credible application for a new stadium the club has ever had, and we are closer to that becoming a reality than ever before. If Dick had not stepped in, put his money where his mouth is, got us back down here to Sussex and put together that application, where exactly do you think this club would be now ? Think we could have done any better do ya ?
Come on then all you bright sparks wanting Knight out, come up with some ANSWERS. Who should come in and take over ? What should Knight have done differently ? Without the wonderful benefit of hindsight, what would YOU have done differently to Knight which would have seen us in some cloud cuckoo-land fantasy world where the Albion are already once again rubbing shoulders with Man U and the like.
Its a piece of piss to snipe and bitch from behind the comfort of your PC. Well, this is your thread now to come up with some real answers about the running of this club. If you can't come up with some credible, constructive answers then I suggets you f*** right off and get off Dicks back.
If it wasn't for that bloke, you wouldn't even HAVE a professional football club in Brighton. You might want to remember that the next time you feel like calling for his head.
