Ferdinand would be an interesting one. We seem to back (fairly) recently retired ex-players quite well and he's certainly had great experience as a player. I would hope that players like Storey would benefit massively from his arrival.
Only downside is it takes us one step closer to becoming Swindon Hotspurs. I'm all for taking their young talent but to take their coaches too?? I've noticed he is only a 'Forward coach' at Spurs as well. Would we need a 'Defence coach' to be appointed alongisde him?

Hmm. I don't get it. You don't care as much because things aren't going well? I think that says more about the individual really.
I've seen so much written on here about how the fans are the lifeblood of any football team, ours in particular, yet now, because things aren't as we'd like at our club (which let's face it has been a soap opera for the best part of 25 years now) we can't be bothered? Paolo was slammed for walking when 'things got a bit tough'. What's the difference? If we're this apathetic towards our club then really.. we don't deserve one.
I feel a bit low about everything, and I am as concerned as the next fan but jeeeez I'll still be there supporting the team!
You have managed to translate somebody who states they are investing less emotional value into what is going on at the club at the moment into somebody that will not be supporting the team. Good work. That is almost the happy clapper arguement all over again.

Happy Clapper and fucking proud mate.
Yes Ferdinand has his badges, according an article from Stan Collymore I read earlier. Will try and find a link.

Sir Les comes across as an affable chap, who comes from a traditional extended English footballing family, with historic Spurs connections a bit like Les Allen.... My main worry would be when he arrives at Calne for training in his chopper, the inhabitants might respond by forming a Melanesian style cargo cult.

Arriba your point about the board works both ways. Ive seen nothing thus far to suggest theu are dodgy crooks apart from a thisis poster who apparently claimed to provide evidence to the trust.
all depends how people interpret things. I accept your point though. Personally think many are showing blind faith. Nothing wrong with that as without hope there's no point to anything. I just am naturally more pessimistic by nature I suppose.

I don't want to worry anyone, but I did take this picture when I rode through Calne earlier.

I think your Arsenal bias is coming out ha. Was waiting for that. Would be equally concerned if it was arsenal using us as a development team. Well almost

You like to misinturpret don't you. I didn't say you were a happy clapper, but you knock yourself out and read it how you want.
