But why are we talking about Sam Hammam? Why are you and a handful of others so fixated on him? Why not explain what it is about Vincent Tan's ownership that you find so appealing?
Yet when Hammam left, the Club was on the verge of liquidation, Ridsdale then TG came on board but there were still winding up orders still happening. Tan came in and brought stability and more success to the Club. As has been said he made mistakes Changing the colours to red, got stitched up by managers, but overall the Club has still had a relatively successful period under him - more so than any other in the past 60 years. So there you have it
