CB Fry Posted 28 July, 2020 Share Posted 28 July, 2020 4 hours ago, stevy777_x said: Should we be worried about Salisu taking this long? To be honest I was more worried that the quiet time between last week's reports and the formal announcement had not already turned into a collective forum panic attack about how we'd been gazumped, the fans have been duped, the club are useless, we can't get deals over the line, laughing stock etc etc etc. Come on forum suicide squad, start getting restless already. It's what summer is all about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't hear the interview. Did he say he was "relaxed" about it ? If so he's learnt from the Grand Master in the Art of Dither. Was also hoping for headlines about not doing business with North London Yobbos, but unless it's gone unnoticed by the media, he's already failed t the 'Rupert test' to hold office. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
