It is not often i have a reason to be grateful we have Gold and Sullivan as our owners but with the recent shananigans from Southampton coming out today with the man that has led the club from the dark days in the 3rd tier of football resigning and its still not sure whether the manager will stay or whether players will be off loaded, it high lights how difficult it can be for clubs with Foriegn owners. Nearly every club that has or had foreign ownership has experienced turbulance along the way, Man united americans sadddled the club with debt will taking money out of the club, Liverpools 1st american duo fell out 1st with each other and then nearly run the club into deadlock, Man city under the ex Thailand premier Thaksin Shinawatra didnt tear up any trees, Blackburns indians commited virtual suicide in the way they have done their dealings, even our great club got badley burned under the 2nd richest man in Iceland who it appears over night became one of the poorest so on the face it at least in Gold and Sullivan we have owners that know and appreciate our history. 1 good thing i could say about Sully is that he did give Bobby Moore a job on his paper when the football world it apppears turned its back on him, and in Gold you couldnt find any other owner of any football club that could claim to have been brought up any closer to the club they evetually owned. one thing i would say though before i actually think i might end up liking them, at least when a foreign owner screws up a club and makes decisions based their bank balance not in the clubs best intrests they do it from ignorance of knowing how a fan of that club feels, yet G&S, they claim to be fans, so when they dump on the club they have no excuse.
