  • It's typical that our long unbeaten home run ends with LDT actually turns up, his presence cursed us!

    How do you not fit in, in the West Stand?  No tartan rug?  No thermos?  Anything else conspicuous we should look out for? 
    Having a very attractive young blond wife tends to stand out.

    Joining in with the Addams Family song?  :)

    Did she have an Aussie or Welsh accent by any chance?

    Couldn’t tell you I’m afraid. There was one gentleman suited up and another 2/3 in more casual clothing. All appeared to be of Middle Eastern/ Asian descent. 
  • Hope it’s not at all offensive to say ‘they didn’t fit in’ wish I’d phrased it differently now, but with Roland wanting to sell on my mind and that regions association with owning football clubs it’s the first thing my mind went to.

    What you did wrong was not taking a photograph so we could bump up the page count even further over who they were. : -)

    Although a word of warning.

    There was a lot of speculation previously, even before this thread, about this "middle eastern looking" person being spotted in the directors box.

    Nathan turned up to play a match half cut and forgot his boots.




    And was adamant he could score 10 goals a game, including from the half way line and ultimately could barely kick a ball.
  • I fucking hate him with a  passion 
    Bit harsh on Nathan

    Nathan Jones? Or has he been gone too long and some other Nathan?

    Not really. 
  • 1993 I was born, but I'm sure you all knew that anyway
  • My wife found out she was pregnant this month in 1993. I was over the moon she was absolutely in a state of shock.


  • I wonder what information Dalman required that was not forthcoming?

    I thought this mad hatter had already agreed a deal with RD?

  • Sat further up the west lower than usual on Saturday and there was a group of about 4 or 5 a few rows in front of me that didn’t really fit in. Could have very easily been a group of tourists but they disappeared at half time and didn’t come back till a little after the second half kicked off. Anton Ferdinand also wasn’t far away so if all cab drivers could be on alert that’d be handy. 
    I was sitting in that row.  Agree they didn’t ‘fit in’.  I’m fairly sure they weren’t English.  Late to arrive and late back after H/T.  Mix of ages - didn’t look like potential buyers (whatever they look like) more like a player’s family or tourists.
  • If "late to arrive & late back after half time" is a clue to being a potential owner then I've got news for you......there are hundreds in the East Stand every game. 😞
  • I moved to Spain in 1993. 
  • Syrian Sid James
    Older brother of Claudio Raneri 😉

    Who is he?
  • any connection to Dalman?
  • It's our former director, and one of the £7m bond holders, Sir Maurice Hatter.
  • Cheers Henry
