    Strikes me all was ok until Mrs Rahic came over. Up to that point he was happy to get his socialising in at the Ambassador and Ginger Goose, and seemed a fairly decent guy who wanted to talk with supporters. She cam over, put a stop to that and now he's turned into a miserable (and I use this word loosely with no linked connotations) dictator whose only life is controlling everything at VP.

    Mike, I think you will find the lady on the pitch before games is Laura Hutchinson who is part of the Marketing side of the Club and looks after Legends Room and Sponsors on Match Days hence presence on the pitch with the Sponsors.

    Provocative and unfounded. I think you will find that Silke Rahic came over at the same time as Edin with their two sons.

    Humour not your thing WW ? Though it is true that when he first came here he was quite often seen in both those bars late on a Saturday night and was happy to engage with supporters.

    Ha, Ha, I can laugh with the best of them, including at myself. You're clearly the same. Did you know Ulysses Grant's real name was Hiram as in Hiram Holiday, he made me laugh as well.

    Indeed. It was an enrolment clerk at West Point that made an error and usg being quite shy at that point didn’t dare correct them so it stuck.

    One of the most impressive places I’ve been to on this planet was usg’s tomb in the upper west side of nyc. He wasn’t a big man, but his sarcophagus would fit Collins, Abbott and drury in it with room to spare, which what would have happened if that mad Italian had bought us

    Yes, laughing at myself is a specialised subject of mine.

    Could be USG. Domestics can have a serious effect on work performance, good or bad.

    Lots on twitter today following the Alan Nixon claim that late paperwork scuppered a loan deal for David Ball from Rotherham.

    A lot of claims that Mrs.Rahic is the official Club Secretary although as earlier posts stated this is not on the website. Sure @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler can confirm or deny this.

    Plenty of currently unsubstantiated claims that she is the highest paid on that position outside of the top six in the EPL and that she is paid 3 times the basic salary of the Head Coach, not a clue if this is accurate.

    These three run the club, but only while Rahic is having his dinner!

    As one or two have been asking, I can confirm that I received a couple of emails, last year, that were 'signed' "Silke Rahic, Club Secretary". The emails were nothing to do with the football playing side of the Club.

    I have no idea how far her role extends or her salary.
