Big Vince 389 Posted July 13, 2020 Delia has now extended her club record as the owner with the most relegations since 1956 and she is now officially five times worse than Chase. So now I need to update my league table as below. Most relegations by club owner since 1956: Delia 5 Sir Arthur 3 Chase 1 Watling 0 Told you she was no good.

Jerrykerry 223 Posted July 13, 2020 And what a fantastic ride its been for city fans in the past 20 years. Hardly a dull season.

It's a disgrace,I tell ya 🙄 I know, right? I can't remember us selling Kevin Reeves or Justin Fashanu (I actually can't) but certainly we never sold the likes of Woods, Bruce, Watson, Phelan, Drinkell, Gordon, Sherwood, Townsend, Linighan, Fox, Fleck or Sutton. Oh no. We didn't systematically cash in on the 1989 side that probably should have won the double. No. This selling lark all kicked off when Eadie went to Leicester.

Delia is to be commended for her work yes but let's not for get we were a Madison away from bankruptcy and as Webber has stated in a real mess. I like Delia but I don't get people ignoring the facts when it comes to her ownership. Tough gig, I'd not want to do it but she is not the Messiah. Sorry...
