The booing was out of order and uncalled for. Though I think it was a mistake for him to do a speech at the end. He has been under immense pressure but we were cleared of 5 of the 7 charges, smallish fine. People make mistakes. Let's move on.
I booed Paladini yesterday. So Sue me. I have never booed anyone at Loftus Road before. But then, when criticism of my club has come my way before, it's always been easy to defend by blaming the manager and team selection etc because it's always been about performance.
In the past few years I have had to defend my club about off-field matters, alleged board-room hold-ups, training ground closures, devious signings and things I cannot easily defend that I never had to as a fan before. I'm sick and tired of explaining it away to people. I shouldn't have to. So if I have a concern about an employee of our club - who's name is synonymous with such events then in ordinary parlance, "Mud Sticks".
Reading the excellent Clive Whittingham in the A Kick Up The R's recent fanzine gives an interesting insight into the shananigans of the guy. No matter how people dress it up, bottom line, who did i trust more? Sheila Marson or Gianni Paladini? I rest my case. No matter how people defend him. he is an accident waiting to happen. Oh, and I think one of the two charges were against him? But hey, to say one wasn't proved, disguises the fact, the other was. We used an unaffiliated agent.
