True, I'm merely saying that anyone can string a few words together and promise,

convince, and charm, and I'm saying Di Stefano did it for a while

When you draw up two sides to situation, you have Delia and Michael, and you have Cullum and his propaganda through Archant

I can fully see why D and M have backed away slightly. It's quite disrespectful

        Pants just reply to this please. (NCFC) - phrankin, Jul 4, 10:06:04
        
        Is Delia actively seeking out investment? (NCFC) - phrankin, Jul 4, 09:52:19
        
        Because his offer is more than investment, it involves having control of the club (NCFC) - pants, Jul 4, 09:54:12
        
        exactly and Delia does not want to give up control (NCFC) - phrankin, Jul 4, 09:55:32
