Smurthwaite Sold Up?

[Iron Curtain]

In essence the same as our chairman as I don't believe he charges interest either.

 

He is including it in the valuation of the club though isn't he?

 

Forget what it's worth, I want my money back, screw the fans!!

[Robbie Earle's Perm]

REP, please enlighten me why you not only show unwavering support for the proven incompetent NS, but you also obviously take enjoyment out of winding fellow supporters up, even ifollowing relegation. Bizarre

 

As I said earlier I don't support anyone aside from my family and friends and Port Vale. Rich owners of football clubs don't need support.

 

If people think I'm winding them up then they are wrong, I passionately love my club. I don't mind joking about the way some fans who are way OTT with their hatred and annimosity towards the chairman, who has clearly made mistakes and is culpable for the last three abysmal managerial appointments, tried to call me out and instigate yet more hate after the game yesterday. I pity them but won't be reading their bilge again.

 

As for everything else it's a forum for debate and conversation on all things Port Vale, not to be taken too seriously and for general conversation and enjoyment. Football is a sport and a hobby at the end of the day.

Fair enough. We'll cut out any dick waving contest on what Vale means to each of us and why, but I know understand why you don't feel the same level of anger to how the club is driven by NS

"Football is a sport and a hobby at the end of the day"

 

A club that has been a place of building memories with family/friends past and present. It's more than how you flippantly see it. That is exactly how I imagine NS thinks and that is another reason he's a burden rather than an aid.

Dick wave away but I've supported my club since 1981/82, I fell asleep during my first game when I was sat in the VP's, I was a mascot, I was a ball boy, I have Robbie Earle's shorts from the play off final win. I've been through the good times and the bad both home and away with my grandad, my dad and my daughter and I've always bought a ST even when I couldn't use it thousands of miles away. As I say I support my club and that's unconditional.

 

I don't need to support rich football owners or daft people (not yourself) who support the same club as me.

 

As I say football is a hobby and a sport, it's not a matter of life and death.

So that's where his shorts went.Ive got (somewhere) Paul musselwhites shorts,remember him on video running up the tunnel in his pants.

[Santa]

There was a great photo of him in the Sentinel wearing just a pair of pants, a pair of yellow socks and his boots. Everything else had been scavenged off his body.

I know:yes:

No Ashley has made a profit for the club but hasn't taken any of his loan out. Smurf has made a huge loss for the club and wants his money back.

[Jacko51]

So is that a no?

 

No, it's an "I believe Norman has seen it". I assume it was produced during the period of exclusivity and confidentiality. Why should anyone else but the seller need to see it at that point?

[davo80]

Norman has done a decent job, people need to get off his back! I don't blame relegation on Norman in fact I am great full Port Vale still exists!

Give over.

They don't need to, as I said I just personally won't support a buyer until I see one.

Clearly Ashley will want his money back in time built in to any eventual sale for instance, he ain't daft 😉

Spending £135 million on a football club without looking at the books suggests he might be!

[Robbie Earle's Perm]

I disagree it's an absolute passion but it's not as important as family, health and financial stability.
