    I can imagine why he left Twitter, haha, the most sensible figures with a bit of a following on there don't read the replies but I guess that's tough as a CEO when you're expected to respond to legit queries from legit fans.

    Most of what comes back is a nonsensical stream of knee jerk tantrums and long term bile.

    Quite a lot of hot air. I’m a bit disappointed that Phil (other host) doesn’t challenge him more-we need two strikers of quality and a right back and a centre back and a centre mid.
    When prompted he just effectively says another striker

    He left twitter because he can't handle the truth (that people call him twitter boy)

    Interesting that he has had other job offers in the last 12 months but declined them.

    If only there’d been some sort of fans forum event where you could have let him know how you felt

    His track record at City is abysmal. Anybody from the outside looking at his decisions surely cannot want him running their company or club.

    I really hope he suceeds. Seems a genuine fella who is learning the ropes the hard way. But so far he has been terrible. McCall, Turnbull, T&S.....

    You could now say the same about Sparks.

    Very visible and vocal when he thought things might go well and as soon as they turned removed all traces of himself on social media.

    That in itself is not necessarily a bad thing either, perhaps it should have been that way from the start but the point I'm making is that if we do eventually achieve any success and he suddenly reappears on these formats he's going to come across in a very poor light imo.
