Seven Years Bad Luck (1 Viewer)

[TheOldFive]

Coming up to the anniversary of the 11th hour last-gasp Sisu purchase.
There are some archived forum threads that make pretty tragic reading looking back, how triumphant we were at having the support of a wealthy Hedge Fund, how the good times were not far away. Is it just me or does this all actually seem to have been even longer ago than seven years?

Maybe we could read the minutes where it is proposed to downsize the youth set-up and he suggests how to manage the negative PR?

Seems like fucking twenty years not seven.

god how depressing is this club at the moment

The quote that stands out for me is the Greek guy pulling out saying : "The clubs falling apart"

 

[ccfc92]

Greek billionaire Alki David emerged as a rival bidder earlier this week, but then withdrew claiming that the club was 'falling apart'.

At least everyone will always remember your highly publicised protest against their ownership at the time.

Well there you go! That definitely tells you we are moving to another town or city!

I've got the seven year itch. Its time to divorce SISU.

Yes lets do that. Then we wont have to talk about SISU and their ongoing failure as our owners.

I wasn't a Cov fan then, supported Leicester because I didn't like Sisu.
