    I like Roland. He is building a sustainable football club which can be successful in the long run. Do we really want somebody to pump money in and then ditch his toy when he's bored..

    Like Roland and Standard you mean?

    Harsh. Doesn't sound like was 'bored'. Sounds like he thought he was doing what was best for the club but the fans have given him loads of shit. Don't blame him to saying bollocks to it.
    I wasn't being totally serious but he gets shit from our fans. If he can sell SL then he might do the same with us. No more reason to say Kola will get bored that Roland or any other owner.

    Of course, although i don't think we are capable of street rioting and attempts to attack the directors offices like SL fans.

    kola karim is only interested in the publicity .
    the one Nigerian who would buy a football club in the championship would be Aliko Dangate.

    Not you as well. I thought I was the only one getting this great opportunity!

    Saw a great sight a few years back where people respond to those requests and con the con men. It was hilarious how they convinced them they were dealers in African art and got them to have carved copies of a laurel and hardy and a tacky looking puppy ornament carved and shipped to them to see the standard of their work. Then drilled holes in it and complained a squirrel being in the box etc… Was quite funny how long they kept them believing it! Has anybody else seen it – has a link?

    Precisely thought he was doing what was best. Obviously wasn't.

    Doing what was best = selling players for about 26 million euros over an 18 month period and replacing them with players costing 6 million euros. Don't blame the fans for saying bollocks to it.

    That's really not funny - in fact I find it distasteful.

    Having lived in Nigeria, i find it's shocking what's going on in the country too.
    And really don't understand how all of West Africa don't join together and fight the Islamist militant group. You have to live in that country to understand the different tribes and the terrible religious situation going on in the north of the country.(it looks crystal clear to us)
    Yes your right, that is distasteful, and i won't appeal against the straight Red.

    Rumours is where it belongs.
    Only when it passes due diligence should the quantum leap take place.
    More chance of us signing Delort.
