    He didn’t come
    he didn’t see
    And he certainly didn’t conquer

    Started off bad and then went down hill from there really

    I've just checked btw - we were 19th when Roland took over, and are 17th now. All that piss and vinegar for two places up the table ;)

    Not a single thing I can say in his defence. 
    Not one 
    Just pleased we have been cleaned of his toxic ownership.

    We got to see some good signings: Buyens | Gudmundsson | Bulot etc.
    He then stumbled his way into hiring Lee Bowyer and accidentally gave us a great day in May
    Thats it though, an old idiot who got extremely lucky with some rare good decisions
    Got found out for the incompetent idiot that he was for the rest

    Thanks for improving our ranking, all the events that led to us finding Curbs 2.0 and hopefully selling to our greatest ever owners.

    Champions League here we come.

    I think he thinks he’s well meaning but unfortunately he is a fairly arrogant fool who made a lot of very poor decisions in the first few years and Katrien and Driesen were both in that categorY

    He took forever to fuck off.
  • I hated it

    Nope dont worry I'm staying
  • He made Karel Fraeye our manager which I think must be one of the worst pure footballing decisions of all time.

    In an odd sort of way he galvanized this club.

    Wholly unintentional I should add.

    An owner who didn’t believe that winning was important in football.

    He has been a cancer in the club. Could not be happier that he’s gone.

    Achieved nothing.

    Got very lucky with his final managerial appointmnet default selection.

    At least, however, the club was never in danger of going under and that fact alone means there are worse owners still operating in the EFL.
  • He was a cucking funt, end of.

    I’m a bit disappointed that we have not had an incoherent rant from the senile fucker as yet unless of course he can no longer demand it go on the website.

    NEVER EVER thought I could hate Brussels more...

    Then Capatan Shitweasel rolled into town and ripped the gizzards out of my ONLY desire!
  • By pure luck he ended up with Bowyer who became a miracle worker. The best time period was when he let the footballing people get on with managing the club and he didn’t get involved.

  • One weird thing that sticks out for me was that Simon Jordan stuck up for us.

    That's like staring into a steaming pile of shit and looking for positivity. Just scoop it up, put it in the bin and move on. 
  • That the fans of Burnley, Coventry and Brighton etc stood with us in our protests.
