    That’s what I thought. dml1954’s long line of people almost certainly consists of one individual and I can’t remember him promising to plough millions of his own money into the club. He was so tight he squeaked.

    As for Clive Sullivan, wasn’t he supposed to be a cover for his brother so he could own two clubs? And didn’t it all turn out to be bollocks anyway?

    Here’s another question: who was running the club when there was talk of a new stadium down the Bay? They were going to build a sports village or some such nonsense and the football ground was going to have a smallish capacity. Was that Borley and PMG? Or did I dream the whole thing?

    Could you imagine any business bod saying that they were going to pump a shed load of their own personal wealth into a club? Does that happen in real life? Lets be honest, apart from Tan, we haven't had many owners with shiltloads of cash.

    I vaguely remember something like that. Was it Kumar?

    Maybe it was during the Kumar era when Borley, Guy, etc, were also on the board.

    I used to live in Welling and I can't recall an undue reservoir of urine in my neck of that suburb...

    I have no doubt that DML worshipped Hammam at one point.
