  1. I Agree ...... But trying to judge an owner who is on the edge of sanity is fraught. He could do anything at any time.....or nothing. Really want the cretin of an owner gone.
  2. I wouldn't think it would need a big cheque TBH.

    In relative terms I don't think he was well paid. Although he had a grand title he wasn't that senior a figure at the club - he was a glorified coaching advisor.
  4. Apparently Bruce isn't back until tomorrow..........got to be a reasonable chance he is axed as well - although his rolling contract might save him.

    First day back at training today - Either he was holding the fort for Bruce to return - or with Wyness gone there was to be a bit of restructuring and maybe the revised role for SR was unacceptable to him or SB

    Thought he was a complete bullshiter - I am concerned however that we have no one to steer our ship - other than Dr Loony on the other side of the world via skype.
  7. That Deliser123 posted a while back - that Xia had some sort of promise of a loan of £50m to keep us going for 2 years. Whilst that isn't great news, it does prevent us from having to sell players to meet very short term expenses. When the story about the winding up order broke IMO a few clubs thought they would be able to pick up our players on the cheap. The First sale we make will be important - if we sell JG for £9m - clubs are going to think 'villa are desperate - offer them £3m for chester' etc - if we can function normally then that effect is reduced.

    Wonder if WBA are going to get Terry as well - as Johnstone was bang average when Terry was out of the side. Johnstone has always reminded me of Scott Carson - OK as long as the opposition don't have too many shots target
  9. Xia's plans aren't the problem - its the implementation or lack of it.
  10. It was only just over a month ago, that Dr Loony was hoping to hide all this chaos by us getting promoted. New owners by the end of the year is the best case scenario in my book.
  11. I for one welcome our new female overlords ............................... (especially if the rack is ok )
  12. Anybody remember that ronson advert in the 70's - it probably needs updating Tony Xia :- "I was so impressed - I bankrupted the whole company"
  13. Actually Xia is the perfect owner for us. He has vast experience at running loss making businesses - not only this but he also manages to increase those losses in many instances. Profits are for wimps !
  14. You have a business with a debt of around £60m - and he is covering it with approx £3m per month loans .........yet he turns down a £30m+ for the business !!
  15. Yes - but hopefully they won't be totally insane.
  16. well he has 2 legs ........and i heard a rumour he might be buying us.
  17. Which has since been deleted - by and replaced by another saying don't believe the rumours.
  18. He hasn't been paid so is seeking a new employer ?
  19. So in conclusion then:- Dr Tony Xia is a Representative for Wellingborough ?
  20. I know probably no one would want to do this But until you use your season ticket for the first time - you are entitled to a full refund if you wish. If a good whack of those £20k purchasers did this - Xia would quite simply have to go.
  21. But its not really justice - its just that the Hillsborough group have gotten so powerful that its a brave man who stands up to them.
