A subsequent devilish thought occurs to me...

Maybe Cifuentes is gonna appear. It'll be Nourry all the way through, but first 20 mins will be all the questions they got about the team for which Cifuentes will be with him, then next 20 will be on academy and development squad for which Furs/Betsy people like that, they'll have 20 mins on the recruitment maybe with Belk up there with him, DeSouza's bound to appear, head of operations for a bit to talk about beer and toilets.

They didn't put Cifuentes on the release as part of the "it's a joint effort" pitch, didn't want him to be over and above any of the others. Everybody has automatically jumped to the conclusion that means he's not coming. And they're now all sitting there chuckling at the six page thread and Twitter posts it's caused. Monday night, two minutes in, Cifuentes introduced, big cheers and applause, all is right in the world again.


I mean, I've only posted this three times on the thread already, Clive.

I agree.

But also, and sorry if this offends people, sometimes I just want to go and watch some effing football at an effing football ground and not waste time and energy worrying about the billion things that go into running a club.

Some people do care about that, deeply. For some people it's the number one thing in their life. And that's fine - the club needs those people. But don't have too much of a go at people that maybe can't be bothered with all that crap and just like going to the football.

Equally, if you think you'll get transparency and accountability from a fans forum you've not been paying much attention over the years.


Supporting the club for 40 odd years and not even a semi final for the highlight reel, I feel the least the club could do is have the manager rolled out once a year for the ā€˜baying massesā€™. Poor form from whosever decision this is IMO.

'...Mr Nourry, isn't it true that you are the CEO, DOF and now Janitor at this creepy old stadium and that you have been trying to scare away the public with crap beer, third world plumbing and awful PA equipment so that you can sell Loftus Road to developers building a Mrs Brown's Boys museum?'

If Nourry doesnā€™t realise his own faux pas, and doesnā€™t course correct with Martiā€™s belated attendance, Iā€™d be surprised.

Then again, reneging on his power play is probably too tough a pill for him to swallow. So he is caught between a rock and a hard place.

I'll laugh if it is just Judd the Cat and that Tiger mascot sitting on high stools. Noury whispers the answers to any questions to them, who then proceed to inform those in attendance of the answer through the medium of mime.

You'll all leave with as much knowledge of the club as you went in there with.

Well on the second paragraph, of course we all would.

But I wonder what fans of Bury, Wimbledon, or Leipzig who felt that way think now.

I also wasnā€™t speaking about fans forums specifically which always seem a farce to me, or people keeping their noses out of it, rather those who have leapt to his defence when he is asked questions of.

Or, and this is one for our older readers, Joe 90 will be playing the role of knowledgeable football coach

Okay I found the form,just questioned the prices of the Guinness (Ā£8) in the forever Rā€™s bar and suggested slightly under cutting or at least matching the prices of the local pubs will in the long term generate more income. I also mentioned it was poured incorrectly šŸ˜‚

Poured incorrectly? The best Iā€™ve ever had is a warm bottle of carlsberg and an empty plastic cup slammed down in front of me.

Iā€™m sorted with the fans forum. Iā€™ve put my question in about the seat backs and waiting for it to be ignored for the 56th consecutive year.

If they do wheel out Kevin Betsy he will be well worth talking to Clive.
Used to watch him when he started his playing career at Woking, and now play golf with his then manager.
He describes him as one of the most impressive and nicest people he has ever met.

People threw "learning on the job" at Les Ferdinand for about 10 years (at what point, do you think, had he finally learned his job?) so maybe they'll do this for Nourry now as well.


Les was accused for years of not being qualified for the job but Nourry not a word about his qualifications to basically run the club, is quite funny really

Just a thought if MC were to be at the Forum what would he actually divulge that is any different to what he says pre and post match? Let's face it why should he explain why he employed the tactics he did against Mlllalll or in any of the other games? He's paid to do a job to his best abilities and the way we play is up to him. We all think we could manage the team and a game in a better way than the manager when we don't win but let's be honest at the very least 99% of us don't possess a UEFA Pro license so why should he explain himself to us? He's not going to tell us which players he would like us to sign (especially as it won't be down to him) and he's not going to give up what team or tactics he's going to use against Hull so what is he actually going to talk about?

A bit like Harry and Meghan's interview with Oprah, Nourry will take the first 30 minutes before someone finally plucks up the courage to ask "Where's Marti?". Cue the camera panning across to find Cifuentes in the coup feeding chickens. When Marti does finally join the set, Christian gently squeezes his hand to let him know which questions he can and can't answer. A fan asks whether the toilets have been finally fixed, upon which Marti 'Top Gun' Cifuentes jumps up and down for joy on the sofa.
