Welcome with open arms, Shilen. That interview was more than encouraging. When I first read a Yank was after us I rolled my eyes, but this bloke's genuine, and fingers-crossed he'll get the right Staff/Board behind him. Thumb up


RE: Takeover?! - valpayne - 29-02-2024

businessmen per se don't get where they are without a bit of crook in them that's my personal opinion. Its life.
I can only quote from full metal jacket where animal mother tells the joker you talk the talk do you walk the walk!
SP gave a very good realistic open and encouraging interview lets hope he walks the walk?

I don't think this has been posted yet/before - nice interview; nice words from an obviously nice man:

Heard the interview. I haven’t felt this positive about my beloved Baggies for years, decades even.
Of course it could be just saying what he thinks the fans want to hear, but I believe he’s genuine and the future looks rosy.
