Mr Bloke

Hmmm... ... don't be silly, there's no need to pm anyone to tell us the next time you're about to post. We'll look forward to seeing you in 4 years time...

Hmmm... Those of us who say the least often notice the most Mr Rolling. But I'm sure in this case, it's just a strange coincidence...

Oh please! You yourself only returned to the forum on Tuesday after 6 years of inactivity! I just thought now was a good time to mention it...

Hmmm... ... Chris who?

Hmmm... ... I agree, it does seem a much fairer way of doing things! But thinking about it... ... if we're letting 9 clowns run the circus now, just think what damage all 84 incompetents might cause!

Hmmm... ... is the answer... it's saved us from being run by any of the other incompetents?

Hmmm... ... but what if you yourself secretly knew that you were out of your depth, but you didn't want to tarnish your otherwise impeccable CV with a failure to do the job you were highly paid for? Like many, I've always liked Mr W's no nonsense approach and had respect for what he has managed to achieve with limited resources, so I was surprised and disappointed with the way he appears to have given up. This is probably the first time(?) we've seen him having to manage a team when results have been going against him, and as some of us know, anyone can manage when things are going well - you earn your money when things are going not so well and you need to get back on course. Maybe he just realised that he could no longer live up to all the hype and expectations?

Hmmm... ... I'm sure most people (with perhaps the exception of a few nut-jobs) would agree that any "attack" on his family is completely out of order, and no amount of pent up frustration with the club justifies any personal "attack" on family members. But the bottom line is Wednesday are where they are because of a points deduction that was caused by the irresponsible actions of one man. His family may well be highly respected as successful business people (although some independent historical reports may question the ethics behind that success) but he himself has so far shown none of that quality with regards to running SWFC. Football fans do indeed have short memories and want instant success so they believed all the "promises" they were fed - they were prepared to put up with his foibles (gold elephants, seat graffitti, club badge etc) as he attempted to mark out his territory to signal his "ownership" - much like a cat may go around p****** on things when they feel threatened or stressed. Well now the fans are the ones feeling stressed - and the majority seem to have realised that maybe they shouldn't have believed all they were promised...

Hmmm... What if we replaced your "syphoning" idea by some sort of evaporation process... ... and your "raised holding tanks" by let's say... clouds? I think you might just be onto something...

Hmmm... ... if that's true, surely Wednesday would be deducted points every week?

Hmmm... ... I suppose that does rather depend on what you think is "top class". Maybe you need to have a bit of a read into the history of the Thai fishing industry... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_Union_Group

Hmmm... ... I suppose that depends on which came first? But it's no good crying over spilt milk and beating yourself up about it...

Hmmm... ... so a car park located close to the place which attracts scallies on a daily basis gets bad feedback? Well who'd have thought?

Hmmm... ... I've thought exactly this for some time, but not being a Wednesday fan, have not dared post it. While I really hope for the fans' sake that they can pull off the great escape, it may in the long term be even more detrimental to the club if Mr Tuna still thinks he can do as he pleases and ultimately get away with it. So, like a seemingly growing number of Wednesday fans, part of me feels that Mr Tuna deserves all he gets and he may even get a bit of a reality check if they do go down - especially if it's only by the points deduction that he himself is the sole cause of. Unfortunately it'll be the innocent fans that will probably suffer most. But he'll undoubtedly be hit in the pocket, and the pain may wake him up to the error of his ways... ... let's hope so!

Hmmm... ... now I could be wrong, but I don't think that's very likely. Thankfully, Latrodectus motocyclus are not native to Sheffield...
