PaulyH 0 Posted July 9, 2008 What a needless and spitefull post. You don''t think that with both heads together we would get the best of both worlds? Or are you one of these people blinded by your hatred of a board that have simply made mistakes trying to do the best for our club? They have also had success which is an incoveniant truth for those hell bent on hounding them out. Time to sit back, relax and take a rounded view of the situation. No need to be so nasty and hot headed in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I cannot see how you cannot do anything but welcome the possability that he might invest. Would you rather have a person like the bloke who bought Ipswich, who no one knows who he is, after 5 years he will have made a huge profit out of a failing club. Which pne would you prefer Cullum, billionaire and life long fan, or the person who has invested in Ipswich, only in it to make money out of the club?

canary86 0 Posted July 9, 2008 We should all be pleading with the board to beg Callum to invest! We need the money and he seems like a good honest, down to earth bloke, who to top it off is a city fan to boot!He has stated that he knows this would be an investment with his heart not his head because he knows he wont make money on a football club. Shack, you must not want what’s best for the club if you want Callum to "sod off", so please just don’t bother real fans with your idiocy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a1canary 0 Posted July 9, 2008 this will sort those who''ve worked in an office from those who haven''t! i think it was the s*d off cullum bit that distracted people from ''going forward'' bit and upset their delicate sensibilities!i work in local government and i hear it every day - why is it always senior management who are most guilty of it? it has really taken over from ''thinking outside the box'' and ''reinventing the wheel'' as the in phrase. mind you, if cullum uses it and he''s a billionaire, we must be missing something!!

If it isn''t then I must admit I am lost for words. Apparently, a life-long Norwich supporter, born and inbred in Norfolk and one of the wealthiest men in the country says that he wants to buy the club and immediately invest £20M on players and Shacks tells him to sod off. A bit like looking the proverbial gift horse in the mouth (although I have never been too sure what that''s about !) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ghost of Michael Theoklitos 0 Posted July 9, 2008 At the end of the day, its all about outcomes. If Cullum can provide adequate resources to drive towards the optimal outcome, then I am all for his involvement in this project.Just so long as these expectations and resources are adequately managed, then I feel we should pursuit this opportunity, send it up the flag pole and see if it flies.I mean, come on.
