he was not the bad man when he spent big and nearly got us up to the premier,he was not horrid when you all begged him for the big screen was he? and if hes such a horrid man why did you not boo him at wembley  you could of done.all this hatred does not help our plight ,he may not be the best owner,he admits hes made mistakes,he admits hes wasted millions of his own cash,but he will leave when he wants and i think it would be better without this hatred ,unless of course any of you have got the cash to buy him out or contacts who will buy us,but why would a invester invest into such a toxic situation.

Can you give 1 direct example of either?

But wasn’t it his big spending that ultimately caught you up in FPP, which then made him decide to register mid-leading (that’s putting it politely) accounts, which then resulted in points deductions and the further demise of the club?

 

Is that “bad man” enough for you?

 

I also don’t think he will leave when he wants, as you suggest. He is financially locked into the club and will only truly leave when he finds a buyer - which  is unlikely to happen in the near future  considering what his own valuation/return on investment is likely to be.

 

If you look across social media platforms and other forums, I think you will see that the majority have very different views to you, and ultimately this situation is not going to improve anytime soon. There is a tide of unrest and anger that is gathering at a quickening pace.

I'm with Bassett on this one he's doing a fine job and long may it continue.

do we have any outstanding loans as everton have found or told the buyer that these have to be paid by the buyer as well as the cost to them , the trouble with buyouts these are normally take months ,then wages become a problem and it upsets players ect and often ends minus points ect,its not just x amount and thats it especially due to the league approval , but you all want hatred against the man,so lets see what happens.

Where is my hatred? 

 

I agreed with him appointing Pulis and Bruce and I didn't shed too many tears about Moore leaving, however...

 

The bloke is a fool, an incompetent fool.

 

I didn't ask him to spend his money on complete dross or ask him for a new scoreboard. Do you honestly believe he was spending money for the love of the club and fans?

 

He has been an absolute disaster, we are worse off than when he arrived.... just a few things that irk off the top of my head..

 

He tried to cheat.

 

Got us points deducted.

 

Banned radio Sheffield for a while.

 

Will not listen to anyone.

 

Has stopped me attending games due to high pay on the gate prices, meaning that I can't now afford to go with my season ticket holding father when I am in Sheffield which I've done for the last 25 years.

 

The fans and their loyalty are the best thing about this football club and any attempt to attach any blame on them is quite frankly pathetic.

 

But we did have a day out at Wembley I suppose.

What about the loan outstanding with him?.

What about the £2.5m paid to him every season before anything else?.

Hmmm...

I've got a theory!

I think Mr Tuna bought the club as a long-term family investment.

This would explain his reluctance to get any "outsiders" involved to help him.

He seems to have little knowledge or interest in what he's doing, so I think he's just biding time and "looking after" things until his son (who I understand was the one who convinced him to buy the club in the first place) is in a position to take over the running.

If my theory is correct, then I suppose just how long he'll be "in charge" will depend on how old his son is, and when Mr Tuna thinks that he's old enough to take over.

Your thoughts?

It wouldn't surprise me if his teenage son is already making the decisions.
