has the swear filter kicked in, or did you really mean "loving" Wilf?

Silly me, it is clear he has been treated shockingly throughout this whole affair!

| I know many have pointed this out already, but this idea about being a man of his word is just plain boring now.
Allam states he put the club up for sale 22 hours after the FA's name change decision (on 10th April). There are three factors to consider.
1. Who was made aware of this intention to sell? Did he instruct Corporate Finance types to find a buyer? Why no public announcement of the intent to sell?
2. Is it just a little bit coincidental that on 10th April City were just 3 days away from an FA cup semi final against lower league opposition with the real (and ultimately realised) probability of getting to the final which would lead to European football. This fact alone would have increased interest in the club. So, was the club really up for sale on 10th April? Why announce that the club was for sale from 10th April FIVE months later? Or is it such a coincidence that now they are out of Europe, he wants out?
3. He openly stated he would WALK away from the club with 24 hour. He didn't, therefore another "going against his word" event. If it was his intention to leave, then why appeal against the name change if he was going? Of course there is doubt as to if that appeal ever happened judging by things being tweeted (sorry, but thats going against your word again Mr A). In a similar fashion certain public officials have tweeted that no offical bids for the stadium were ever proposed.
I won't drag up the move to Melton and his previous business issues.
City will be better off rid of him. Many of their fans will not see this at the moment due to their league status (which he accredits to himself rather then the management and players).
Was never to be trusted and continues to hide behind "his word" which is clear means something different to him than the rest of the population.

Not forgetting the interview on Blunderside where he said he couldn't favour one RL team above the other and suggested merging, then loans Rovers £1m.

| He is not going anyway City owe £80m to Allamhouse so he won't just write that off. He will want profit so someone will have to pay over £100m for a team who doesn't own the ground when there are other teams up for sale.

PS look at the front page too.
And for that matter, why a 2 page spread on pages 2 and 3 about the RU world cup!!!!

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?: |

And he's a man of honour who once he's said something, he acts on it. Without fail, don't forget.'" ... He was only joking.

I trust him about as far as I could throw him up a spiral staircase.
