Nope, sorry. No sense of 'entitlement' here whatever.

I just want us to be the best we can be. The best we can be under these owners - who are PROUD that they'll "never sell to a foreign owner" - is not very good.

I wonder why the Thais bought Leicester, who at the time, had no greater potential than Norwich and were a division below us? Those Leicester fans should watch out - those Thais have no emotional connection to them, it can only end in tears... Or how about an Italian family buying Watford? That must set the alarm bells ringing, I feel so sorry for their fans. Wolves too. It must be a nightmare. They've sold their soul. Obviously.
