Tony Bloom - Fans' Forum

[Finchley Seagull]

Should shut up a few on here who seem to think we can't wait to sell some of the stars as fast as possible.

If we were going to sell anyone it would have been in the summer, when Stephens especially would have been worth more. Why anyone would think that we'd stand firm on summer bids and then, having had the start we've had, decide to sell key players in January.

Hardly going to say yes we are looking to sell everyone - the market will dictate I am sure

I'm not sure that it will. The big prize is too close to count the pennies now.

This and the acknowledgment that FFP is effectively dead. We will keep what we have and build on it IMO.

So thankful we have a true supporter as chairman. Thankyou Mr Bloom

The young lad's question was brilliant. The best thing for me was, him and his 5 year old brother were sat in the front row, good as gold asking their questions, and their Dad sat in the back row and just let them get on with their business. It was brilliant.

The 5 year old asked "Do we know who was letting the fireworks off when we scored goals?". Tony's reply was to ask him how old he was (reply, 5 years old) to which Tony added of course, "you weren't even born when this was going on!!"

Cracking pair of young kids, 100% respect.

And I second the point about the striker.

For a world class poker player, there was an unmistakable glint in his eye when he answered this question.

Well, before Tony has always talked about every player having his price when answering such questions.

This was a statement about not selling any this January ( except those we don't want to keep ).

Very different answer to normal.

You wouldn't want to face him in a stare off competition

Be hard to keep a straight face with him staring at my balls!

Wasn't there but watched the live feed. Interesting and informative.
Glad to hear we won't be selling important players. Although ridiculous offers might be tempting.
What really shone through is the fact that Tony is a proper fan and a proper owner.

Just watched this....

Always good to hear the thoughts of our chairman.

The personal highlight for me was the chap who asked if the club could change their match day programme binding methods.

Thanks - I'm his old man as you say sat in the back with his 11 year old brother and the 2 little ones asked their questions unprompted good as gold.

I am a bit proud and thanks for the nice comments. I also know that bringing up 3 boys in Northumberland if it wasn't for Uncle Tony may not have been so easy. As it is, they are all as mad as me, come to almost every away game and all have season tickets.

Great forum, great effort by Tony and great day.

WTF was that all about? What a waste of a question.

I'm sorry i thought it was important

It's a question we've all been asking

The one superb moment of the forum was when an eight year old lad takes the microphone, and as calmly as you like asks Tony: "Tony, when you hear the fans singing 'Tony Bloom's Blue & White Army', do you think... 'yeah, I'm the man?" Massive round of applause; Tony laughs hard; eight year old looks bewilderingly puzzled at the reaction. Marvellous.
