Another Day, Another Leak, Another Crisis

If it was happening at any other club we would be in fits laughing. But it is our club that is providing entertainment for our rivals on a daily basis. as hard as Rafa strives to get something worthwhile out of the season so the clowns above him work just as hard to undermine all he achieves.

This current revisit of the Klinsmann business seems a simple enough matter of Hicks retaliating for Parry's defiance in going into work and garnering support from both Gillett and Moores. The leak of the fact that Parry attended the talks with Klinsmann could only hurt Parry in the eyes of the fans and Rafa. So to me it is a no brainer as to where it came from. As the CEO at the time Parry would have been told to attend the meeting. To refuse to do so would have cost him his job. How do we know it wasn't Parry or someone close to him who leaked news of the approach to Klinsmann to Rafa back in November when the whole circus kicked off. Think about it, Rafa found out that Klinsmann had been tapped up up but there was no mention of Parry. The source of the leak either did not know of Parry's involvement or was protecting Parry and simply wanted to warn Rafa of what the two owners were up to behind his back.

This is a real crisis for the club and a time when all fans need to make there support for the manager and the squad known. regretably we still have posters complaining that time is spent "moaning" about the mess these americans have gotten us into and why don't we concentrate on the team etc. Its like, your only supposed to use one brain cell at a time and can't do both. At the Man U match I was sat in the main stand and at half time the guys around me were discussing then ownership mess. One guy sat there reading his paper until just before the second half kicked off and said "You people don't have any right to go on about our owners, the club belongs to them end of. Anyway nothing can happen without the FA's approval so what are you worried about" We were gobsmacked. 

These people are like the idiots who never vote in a general election but moan like f*ck when the country goes down the pan. Of course there are fans who just want to go to the match on Saturday then go home and forget about football until next week but when posters come on sites trying to stop more involved or concerned fans expressing their concerns then that only helps the likes of Hicks who only wants yes men around him at the club and sucker fans who pay any price to watch the match in a shiny new stadium.
