Bizarre. |
Not really "sick note", you had the perfect chance to question the "investment" tonight, yet like you say T2C does, avoided the opportunity, then been posting at a rate on here most of eve.
As I said miraculous recovery, sick note!
Good night!  |  | |  |

You've made a miraculous recovery ..... |
Nah, I hear a lot of phlegm in his posts. But I'm not a doctor, I just play one on the Internet. |  |

Sadly it seems Levin and Kaplan were able to successfully flannel their way out of the Q&A.
And without wanting to sound like an apologist this is unfortunately a reflection of the fact that the questions on key issues like investment were too open-ended, allowing them to reel off their bland PR talking points.
It is unreasonable to expect regular fans to master this, but you have to ask specific direct questions otherwise even the best managers will resort to banalities.
That's partly because you might have to get a laptop or a book out to find actual numbers, but also because you don't want to volunteer anything away that hasn't been requested because it might come back to bite you. It is basic human nature.
A missed opportunity to put them on the spot, unfortunately. |  |

To be fair they were asked on several different occasions to explain for instance where the finance for any stadium expansion would come from after try to flannel their way out of it and as I understand some tempers got a bit heated as they were not answering the question so it's not as if they weren't called on it. |  | | |

I see what you're saying, and only had the Wales Online live reporting to go by.
But there is still a rigth way of asking to pin people down, eg what is the budget for player acquisitions this summer, as opposed to what are your thoughts on the squad.
Don't give them any wiggle room. | |

Just read through all their answers. Yet again, this was just more PR lipservice bullsh1t from Kaplan and Levien. Fvcking hell, ALL THEY'VE BEEN DOING since the takeover is spouting these disingenuous cliches and nonsense. The age old saying of "all talk and no action" could not be more appropriate in any case but ours. I can't stand these two mother fvckers.
I said it before and I'll say it again: we're going to go nowhere but down so long as they own this club. Not only do they not have a bloody clue of what to do, but it's clear as day what they're intentions are, and that's to make money by putting as little in and getting as much out. It's telling enough that they have yet to put a single cent into this club. And they keep going on and spouting this rubbish about how they're going to grow us commercially and use those funds to reinvest into the club, but to date they have given us zero indication as to how they're going to do it, much less outline a plan or even a vague blueprint.
The fact that they're massively involved in player recruitment and are the ones calling the shots there scares me to no end. We literally have people who thought appointing Bob Bradley would be a good idea in charge. Take a minute. Let that sink in for a while. I haven't a clue how people can possibly have hope that our transfer windows--or the club in general--will be more successful in the future when we have two retarded Americans that know less than nothing about this sport at the helm.
