Kassam had no obligation to let us do whatever we wanted in his stadium. Perhaps we shouldn’t have oversold what we could do for Singha before we had confirmed it in writing with the people whose decision it is, and maybe we shouldn’t have started stomping about saying we wanted to play somewhere else and pissing him off to the point that we couldn’t even get into the stadium on match days. We took the guy to court over money we owed him, started kicking him in the balls in public over it, and then people want to moan that he didn’t let us sell someone’s beer in the ground when we never even sorted it out with him in the first place? If there was a deal signed with the stadium company over Singha being sold and they then broke it, that would be different. As it is we assumed it would all be fine and easy, couldn’t fulfil our end of the bargain and came unstuck. Nothing to do with our beloved ‘custodian’. There are plenty of things to hate the bloke for, but this ain’t one of them. Under promise and over deliver, not the other way around. Business 101.Shame about Singha, thanks Ka$$am you c**nt.
Good to hear we have another sponsor lined up, anyway, and that there are plans to get players in soon. We rarely get players in when we’re told the deals are done and that they’ll be announced any day now, but hopefully on this occasion we’re not far off.
