O button your boring twatty cakewhole:yawn:

Im a fan and i have my opinion regardless of what you say,you are like many numpty's on here OBSESSED with the past and lick dicks arse.Dick took over in 1997 yes "TOOK" over and the club was still in business as other consortium's where in the process also of taking this club over.

Dick brought us back to brighton in which that was a priority regardless who took over,so after bringing us back to brighton the club for nearly 10 years battled and won falmer approval thanks to the hard work of the blooms:p

If dick is that good why have we lost revenue at the withdean for every match we have played?yes rented seats and this inturn amongst other things has rattled up huge debts for the club.

Now if dick was that good we wouldn't have these problems would we?its ifs and buts about all this he saved us bollocks:shootself

Move on its been 11 years???

So basically you either completely agree with your view or you "lick Dick's arse". The irony is that people like you have no rationale behind your argument and whenever anyone starts to ask questions you shout abuse and tell people who disagree that they are the problem. Explain to me how that works in your mind!

Too far from the sun
As stated above there isn't a vacancy because dick is still chairman or can you not understand that:shootself

This will be awnsered as soon as dick steps down:D
I'm not asking you to run for the post, I'm asking who you would rather see as chairman, but you're obviously not capable of answering even as simple a question as that, judging by your answer to me and the others in this thread. You try and write clever little answers like that because you have no idea who you would replace Dick with. If you did, you'd say who it was.
 


I also worry about what I see as a lack of accountability.
I think you'll find that the Chairman is accountable to the board and shareholders.

That certainly doesn't mean he's immovable. Managers get the sack when the board and shareholders see fit. So do Chairmen.

Which is why Dick Knight is staying.

Just logged on for the first time today, only to find yet another Dick Knight poll. The poll shows that its 3 to 1 in favour of Dick staying on , so would respectfully suggest that those who voted No should respect that and SHUT THE f*** UP for something longer than a week.

For what it's worth I am happy enough for Dick to stay on until Falmer opens, God knows he deserves that. He has made mistakes, but with best intentions.

As fan with no axe to grind.......i would like Knight to see Falmer as chairman. I would also like the " north end " at Falmer to be known as the Knight end. Yes he has made mistakes,however his good decisions far outway and has kept us alive through very dark times,as i am sure he would agree his time is coming to an end,may the next man fill his shoes with such love for the club .

So have the board come out and supported Dick publicly and if so when.

So Dick can make errors and Wilkins can't hmmmmmmmmmm and people wonder why Dick has lost massive respect.

The decision to sack Wilkins was a board decision, not a DK decision.

What about the 'I have no idea how companies are run brigade' who have never heard of board meetings and how decisions are made within them.

DK does not run the club, the Blooms do. He is the Nookie Bear to Tony Blooms Roger de Courcey, because like everything else in life, money talks.

Our fans are so shallow that if Barry Hearn said he would put £10million into the club provided someone sucked Scott McGleish's cock, there would be a queue ten times round Withdean within the hour to carry out his wishes.
