    TP on the size of the task

    I knew it was going to be a tough one before I came to the club.

    The chairman has spent over £350m on this football club and the challenge is to stabalise the club.

    Here's to the next 350 million pounds worth of failures, keep spending piggies.

    I've just clicked on the link to owlstalk, a good way to cheer myself up sometimes. They have a link to the "extended highlights" of their nil-nil draw with Stoke. An ex Pulis side playing a current Pulis side, wonder how it ended up with n o goals. The highlights were probably confined to one side actually getting a corner and a massive kick from one keeper drawing a comfortable save from the other.

    I've never met a more fickle bunch as much as them lot. I remember every time a fan questionioned chansiri on something he threatened to leave. What a kid he is their owner. Spoilt best living of daddy's money and aint got a clue what real work is

    But they're lauding this as progress. How long will they give him to get his first win I wonder?

    I wonder if we could take on Jordan Rhodes (as a 'broken' a phrases our ex managers have used for many a person) and fix him ? I am sure that his wages will plummet when his contract expires, and I bet Wednesday are eager to get rid.

    And late filing their accounts yet again. And Chansiri says he has spent £350 million.


    Someone will be put on the naughty step soon methinks.
