No doubt the Tan haters would be immeasurably more happy with one of those people still in charge but the club would probably no longer exist if they were. Criticising, insulting and belittling a man who has backed the club over a period of ten years and ploughed at least £200m of his own money into it is disrespectful in the extreme. Some people have very short memories.
Don’t think anyone really hates VT do they? I don’t. He seems morally decent and has ploughed a lot of money into the club, I’d love to know how much he’s put in and how much he has got back but it’s such a murky world it seems impossible. He still doesn’t know how to run a club well though, I’m not sure how many CEO he has hd but none appear to have got us anywhere near sustainable.....
