    Yawn Yawn.

    Why do the T and A continue to interview someone who always belittles the club since he left.
    Still he sold it on well

    I thought he came across very well in the interview and talked a lot of sense (not sure I've said that many times before!) Not noticed him belittling the club before but I might have missed it when he did

    He's a City fan, as is his family. Why would he "belittle" the club he and his family supports in public?

    He’s backed Sparks and Adams saying he’d have made the same decisions.
    He’s confirmed that there’s no interference from directors and that managers make all the decisions on players.
    He’s also confirmed that the VP rent is a major problem and hard to sustain whilst allowing a competitive playing budget.

    Yes and I read absolutely nothing to suggest he was belittling the club. In fact, it was more the opposite.

    If you'd like to quote the specific parts you're referring to though it might help the thread move on a bit.

    He's said what the majority of fans believe happens at a club. No issue in my eyes.

    I know it's early morning, but I've missed the bit where he belittles the club, would appreciate it if you could point it out as I'm no Mastermind.

    I can assure you Mark has loved the club since he was 5 years old, and continues to do so.

    He’s not having a go at the club.

    His main point is a little bit out dated in 2021 but he did state that renting the ground is a problem which I totally agree with him on. We have to reduce the rent costs or look to move. That simple really.
