It will make the anti tan brigade happy and they will be printing off "told you so" t shirts with "we want Sam" back on the back
Re: We have been operating on the never never for years , long before Tan
There is a middle ground, not everything has to be so black and white, I hated Tan for the rebrand, but admit he has done some good (from my limited knowledge of the finances of the club).
What is a fact is that the communication by the club is below par, and we have non football people making football decisions (and getting them wrong time after time).
As for Sam Hammam I hope that the weasel stays as far away from the club as possible.

Wages were above turnover when Sam and Ridsdale were here unless I am wrong ?
Dave Jones had a policy of high wages low transfer fees
I am afraid that whilst Tan can be blamed for poor communication and having a very bad boardroom set up he's not the first owner to have spent and then cut to the bone 😢

Are you serious? In the lunatic world of football finance we are small fry. Look at the £1.5 billion debt of Barca. However the club that really takes the biscuit is Man. City which in the 2019/20 a/c’s show an operating loss of £125 million and a spend on wages of £354 million. Their fans, however, don’t give a toss, I wonder why?
