alex_ncfc 662 Posted June 17, 2021 Can you imagine if these types of player, manager and chairman interviews were commonplace in this day and age, getting to hear Farke's reaction as he loses his best player, stood right next to him, for a club record sale before the chairman discusses his contract on camera. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Paddons Beard 2,431 Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) Never seen that before ! Amazing . Was absolutely gutted as a 15 year old . I must have missed Bondy’s stint on the board though ? Or all the money coming back into the Club? (Other than the Reeves Stand of course ) Reeves looks so young there ? Great clip . Thanks Edited June 17, 2021 by Graham Paddons Beard 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kenny Foggo 1,116 Posted June 17, 2021 Ah the financier of the River End .... Chase of course got his comeuppance selling all our best players. Remember being at a fund raiser with Harry Redknapp and he asked about Keith O'Neill, it was transfer deadline day, said he had been offer him for £750,000 (Chase rang him) but he didn't have the money. Chase was in the local press saying he didn't have to or want to sell any of the up and coming stars! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I think I recall an interview someone did with Bond some years back when he said he regretted leaving Norwich (the DVD the clip is from suggests he left only a few months after the sale of Kevin Reeves) because he had basically been promised a job for life.
