They never wanted Paolo back due to his wages I believe and what he would have wanted budget wise, I don't think Jed & Co ever contacted him but said it in the press to sound look and to make the right noises at the time

Thing that bothers me about the new regime is how are we paying the fee's for the players we have purchased where is the money coming from
Probably from players we sold ie. Flint

Milan Misun was a very exciting young Czech centre back we hoped to sign.....the paperwork was complicated and didn't get completed one afternoon so Milan went back to his hotel.  He asked to train with the team the following morning and was due to sign the paperwork that lunchtime.  During the morning training session he did his cruciate...tricky legal problem, whose player/responsibility was he ?  We were clearly partly to blame, in allowing the player to train, but no way could we then sign him. 

With regard to Ritchie, di Canio was not informed of his sale and rightly went ballistic.  The new owners were in talks with AB and neither party was prepared to fund that month's wage bill so Matt was sold for a fraction of his true value.....the beginning of the end...

So that really answers my question as well then!

I feel a bit bad for ruining the mystery but oh well.

What state was the club in when you arrived with Fitton et al? Did it shock you?

One thing I would like to know, was dealing with the media storm that Luke McCormick's arrival brought one of the most difficult times personally at the club?

Do you think we should kick football into touch and go for Pro-Celebrity Nob Wrestling at the CG instead?

Jeeze, just logged on expecting to read bollocks on the England match and fixing a boiler and I've missed all this! Many thanks to Steve and Jeremy for taking the time to talk to us this evening.

Hi Jeremy.  What was / is the story with Lee Cox?

Why did Paolo bomb him out so quickly after signing him?

The publicity and media frenzy took us all by surprise.  The problem was that the media said we had signed Luke, when all we had done was allow him to train with us.  I firmly believe it was the right decision we took, but the damage was done once the media had put their spin on the story.  What had started as a quiet gesture to help Luke begin his rehabilitation suddenly took on an ugly tabloid induced frenzy.  It was stressful, but I would take the same decision again.

Suggs is old news, heard he is drinking 6 litres of White Ace daily nowadays.

Happy to step aside but let me know now so I can have a poo.
