For You Sam Hammam Lovers...

Is it not a fact, that we are in this situation with Vincent Tan because of the actions of Sam Hammam whilst he was at the club?

He fucked us every way up, and got the club into the situation where we would be willing to bend over for anyone who had a few quid to throw at us, no?

But, oh yeah, he started the dream didn't he? I would rather we were where we were before he came along, than the fucked up mess of a club we are now. Yeah, we didn't have a pot to piss in back then, but it was a united(ish) club.

No it isn't. It's a load of opinionated bullshit!

Didn't happen though, because he listened.

I do agree with your point though, annoyingly.

If it wasn't for Sam's financial f**k ups - we wouldn't have needed Tan or his money....

We would also be at Ninian Park probably & had nowhere near the recent success & good times we had in the 00's.

Plenty of pros and cons.

I am finding myself agreeing with people today that I wouldn't normally ;)

I do like the CCS, before the extension it was mostly blue and the outside a blue / grey colour (shame about the badge) and it's a good, tidy stadium with good transport links etc. and IMO it does beat Ninian park which was a little... creaky... towards the end.

Yeah, Sam listened, and he gave some good times. but as you said, if it wasn't for him, would we have needed the Benevolent Glorious Leader? probably not.

Possibly... Very possibly... he learned from those past errors in judgement and would have a new business brain. He knows, for one, that a change back to traditional colours and badge (or a new badge incorporating the old style) would have most fans licking his bum from the start
