Not looking good for Robson

[maccatwo]

Watching this glad we have the owners we have

[BennyBoyRs]

I've had my suspicions with Robbo. What a donut.

[roose]

Was so waiting for the i-pad to say Queens Park Rangers.

[maccatwo]

Same here

[gingerrangers]

What a grim grim indictment of football, and so depressing for the fan and how we are treated with such blatant disregard! Depressing! Still, I suppose winning 13-0 is something to smile about!

[BennyBoyRs]

He's screwing Fergie here.

[BennyBoyRs]

It certainly makes me appreciate our owners more.

[JudoRanger]

Wow, that has actually slight (and i mean slightly) eased my anger towards Bernie and Flavio!

Brian Robson really has dumped himself right in the thick of things, and explains why he got that Thailand job!

Never thought I see programme that make us feel we happy with our owners. When they said about trying to buy Watford most true expect Watford turned them down once they started looking into there back as stated in the local paper in Watford not some one else bought them first as stated last night.

[blueboy]

dont see how this is meant to ease our feelings towards our current owners...as in Robbo's own worrds....buy a club with potential from the Championship,build it up(ie..get it in the Prem)sell it for inflated price=good business...whats the differance?

Erm,

Wasn't the whole premise to buy a cheap football club, get it promoted without spending too much and then sell for a vast profit?
