David Sullivan´s and Golds legacy: What will you remember their era most by?
|
If they left soon this is my top 3
1: The Olympic Stadium 2: The 40ish failed striker signings 3:The 10 years it took them to finally replacing Parker properly (Soucek)
Not exactly the look of an exiting era!
Step up your game Daves or **** off sharpish
The most positive parts are Payet and Bilic first season, a proper good bye season to Upton Park
Last season was excellent and this could become the best of it, if they wont choke on the transfer market! So maybe we are finally finding some proper uplift in their ERA if they are here to stay (here´s hoping)

has to be finishing the job the V1 started and carting us off to moonbase dildodome.
maybe i'm just a sad old luddite, but despite being great on the pitch for most of last/this season, neither has anything like the magic of that last boleyn season.
i envy those growing up now who can give the multipurpose london council activity centre a clean slate instead of having to unfavourably compare it to what was (for my money) the best FOOTBALL GROUND in the country.

its mixed for me.
Positives They showed up when we needed them after the icelandic debacle. They HAVE (more so recently) backed us with SOME money (but not willingly, consistently and in the right way - see below) Whether by accident or design we have moved forward under their steward ship
Negatives They have treated the club like a plaything at times. Too many Fantasy Football signings that havent worked out They havent shown enough ambition or been dishonest about where their ambitions lie. Talking about 'next level' when clearly just staying up would suit them. They chose the move to the OS over redeveloping Upton Park (which I believe could still have been done) They come across as cunts.
I read that open letter from the Birmingham fan when they first came here. It hasn't been as bad at that, but I put that down to the fans, and perhaps Moyes not standing for their shit.

If Sullivan brings a new striker to training in the next few days and says, "This is our new signing, Moyesie" it'll be positive from me.

The stadium is the big one. And not in a positive way.
Otherwise it depends on if we still have Rice when they depart.

Well obviously the answer is the ground move, that clearly goes without saying, ffs! That aside, can't think of that much different to previous owners.

Telling us they saved us from certain relegation by buying us, then getting us relegated the next season.
Sullivan having shares in a premium phone line company to buy matchday tickets….will never forgive this as this was one he got caught on.
Obviously the move

The awful stadium is obviously the worst thing, but add to that:
- the crappy badge - charging interest on loans to the club - the lies - employing avram - not sacking him - the cringe worthy interviews
But my personal favourite was the leaked email which read like it had been drafter by a child - something about ‘it you don’t accept our offer we’ll loan someone from PSG’.

Personally, that Burnley game
When the fans were trying to get to Sullivan I thought that would be the end of the regime
Lasted far longer than I thought

Fuck me, where do you start?
'We saved the club from going under, we're probably mad to take on the ownership as we're a hundred millions in debt'.
Now look at us, one hundred and ten million in debt, a free stadium and that CUNT Sullivan won't put his hands in his pocket.
We're still hearing 'a loan with an option to buy' constantly and we all know that he will leave it until half an hour before the window closes and rifle through the bins.

I'd say Rice will probably be the most remembered player of the era, with Payet coming in at a close 2nd.

Sixty thousand fans at home games.
Relegating us due to their risk taking.
Getting us back up first time.
Two best seasons in the EPL under their stewardship.
Winning nothing.
