Tony Bloom - Sami is here to stay

[Medwayseagull]

Glad to see he is holding his nerve and not pandering to the " sack the manager after a few weeks of indifferent results " brigade.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Supporting the Albion gets ever more interesting.

I'm sorry is this part of the in depth interview Naylor promised us on Sami and tomorrow the transfers....

If so that is nothing but sound bites, I mean what else can he say.... He can't say I think I made a boo boo, or he has two games to turn it round. Not the explosive no questions dodged interview I was expecting.

Nothing to see here.

To be fair this is just a couple of quotes
http://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/albion/11595001.Tony_Bloom__Sami_Hyypia_is_here_to_stay/
from a long interview in the paper.

As for TB then as well as Andy Naylor he's also giving long and frank interviews, if previous events are anything to go by, with Johnny Cantor from Radio Sussex (will be available on BBC Sport online) and also at a public event on Thursday. The Seagulls over London club thing.

And for reference . This is what TB and PB said during the first international back when he did a similar series of interviews.

including that commitment to being the chairman for many years to come which he's said many times.

If that's the case then surely the manger is the wrong decision

Ha.... Ha.... Ha..... Oh how we laughed......

If that's the case then surely the manger is the wrong decision

The only logical conclusion

'A few weeks'!!!

'A few weeks'!!!

To be fair if he was to sack Hypia, Barber or Burke after all the backing he has given them, he would be saying I got it wrong and there are other ways to get rid without sacking them.

Just heard the interview on Radio Sussex and they only played 30 seconds or so so little to add to the tweets. They will probably have the full interview with Johnny Cantor up online in an hour or two which will have more detail.

Has anyone asked him about prices of tickets and food given that only 16,000 went to the Wigan match and about 19,000 for the Blackburn game and most home games before that.

Surely they must be desperately concerned about this.

I said in the summer we are sleepwalking towards relegation and am still of the same opinion. The performances have been toothless and vulnerable while recruitment decisions have been a total shambles. Bloom backing the current personnel and strategy seems like either denial or stubborn arrogance to me.

Chairman Tony Bloom be disappointed with that assessment. The squad is weak enough to sleepwalk into League One.

I think it is strong enough to make the playoffs.....just not the playoffs in this division.

Begs the question of why we are sitting in 20th and 1 point outside the relegation zone then?

Makes it very hard for TB to sack SH in the near future now. Interesting that he shows no doubts whatsoever, is this stubbornness due to SH being a TB appointment or can he see light at the end of the tunnel that the majority of fans cannot?

Interesting times ahead.
