Totally correct...and with all the facts and figures laid out before us I find it staggering that some still don''t get it...... yet they bleat endlessly when the good old sheep jibe comes out.

I can understand keeping the magical myth of Father Christmas going for your 5 year olds....but this is plain ridiculous......

I''d love to see the Pink Un back this up Cluck, somehow, I don''t think they believe us two!.[;)]

Isn''t it irrelevant even if she did save the club? The point is that was 11 years ago and we''re in the worst position we''ve been in for years. It doesn''t matter what happened in 1996, or even in 2004 when we won promotion, we''re in such a bad state there doesn''t seem to be any signs that Delia or the board will turn it around.

It''s relevant in so far as people cite this fact time and again as a reason for giving her more time, chances and yardage. Time that frankly she would not have had if the truth were fully understood by all.

To stop these endless arguments about who saved who etc. Maybe the Pinkun team can go back into their acrhive and give us the time scale of these events for once and for all stop these threads!

As an earlier poster stated, that is history, but lets for once have the correct history of events and stick a hyperlink for any new thread on this endless argument!

Its absolutely bloody relevent Graham, whilst ignorant pro cook supporters still glorify in the myth that she somehow is City''s savior.........when in truth, she''s damn well not![:|]

So she put no money in mid nineties at all, everything penny that saved our club was by Watling? She still helped save the club, like it or not, there is no way that Watling had enough money, Watling got Delia to help along with others.

Mr Watling didn''t do it on his own, several people were involved.
