Level headed sensible remarks, exactly what is needed

Agree - glad we have a sensible owner.

Far more complex behind the scenes. Private equity will be looking for a financial return. American owners aren't buying clubs for the love of the game or the benefit of the local community.

All of which means financial outlay, as they'll want to sell up at some point and the club has to be in a better place to achieve some gain for them. So the usual trope of speculate to accumulate, as long as the people speculating are doing it intelligently then we should (eventually) get to be quids in!

What family ties does Terry have to us or are we counting shagging Wayne Bridge's wife?

Ex-wife.
So much nonsense around this at the time when IIRC Wayne wasn't even married to her by then.

As for Pat Terry, a very physical small striker but with a good spring, like Shane Long, and a powerful header of the ball.

What was his height?

I would have thought around 5ft 9"-10".

Sensible enough to realise that the fans are not happy with what they are watching (he supposedly was at the Doncaster game so would have heard the discontent) so it's best to come out with something before the end of the season rather than wait till the season is over.

Fortunately he did not repeat the drivel about an exciting transfer window-it is the raising of expectations that his been his one fault in a season when he has tended to say the right thing.
Why do f*****g Yanks have to bring hype into everything?

The club isn't going to be in a better place with Richardson in charge!

[AthleticoSpizz]

Richardson’s not in charge, Couhig is.
And besides, Richardson was sacked yesterday

[stealthpapes]

kinda loved that the two people doing the pre-match chat this week were Richardson and Leam.

Maybe the dressing room is in the last place you looked?
