[Albion] Tony Bloom MBE

[The Wookiee]

He better not have donated any money to the Tories.

Come on, is that your first thought on this amazing accolade awarded to OUR Chairman and owner who has given us fans so much to be proud of ?

He better not have donated any money to the Tories.

Unlikely, you get a peerage for that.

Totally deserved. Tony Blooms blue and white army

Tony Bloom, MBE, Blue and White Army.


Doesn’t really scan, does it.

It's my first thought when ANY business person gets a gong.

Made
Brighton
Excellent

Bravo.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Well deserved for what he’s done for the area, mens, women’s and youth football, plus Albion in the community.
deserves a statue somewhere in the area, it’s not like it will take up much space.
legend.

This is fine.

Well deserved

 

[Pevenseagull]

I know a guy who got an MBE for his work with drug rehabilitation charities who supplied some Tory MPs with cocaine at the time of his award.

One of the biggest cainers I've ever met, now lives in Goa/ Ibiza/ Brighton.

Obviously I won't go into details on here but you wouldn't be surprised at the names of the MPs.

One in particular.

Ok, you are entitled to your opinion, but surely, out of respect for what Tony Bloom has done for us and our club, you should have kept those thoughts to yourself

George Dowell, Chairman of Worthing FC also made an MBE, as is Jeff Sterling.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Don’t really give a shit about these nonsense awards but that is one man who definitely deserves an award, whatever it is.

 

[AmexRuislip]

Well done Sir Tony Bloom

A bit contradictory with your comment. Tony Bloom was given one of your “nonsense awards” and yet you say he deserves it. Strange.

I have huge respect and gratitude for everything he has done for the club and the city and the community.


I reserve the right to express my contempt for titles that get dished out to people who have done f*** all other that write nice things about Michael Gove or have impregnated Boris Johnson's PA or given some of their employees money to the Tory Party.

Member of the order of the British Empire

Cheap title.

I get that and respect your opinion, but Tony Bloom is none of the above - so not really relevant to this thread

 

[Greenbag50]

Sir Tony Bloom sounds better…..
well done Tony!

Helpful

 

[Pevenseagull]

Philip Green still has a Knighthood for taxpayers buying him super yachts.

All these titles are ridiculous and cheapened.


If the MBE puts a smile on TBs already smiley face and makes him happier

. I don't begrudge him a moment of extra happiness.


But it's utter bullshit

 

[Greenbag50]

Jees…… I get that Brighton geographically/ politically is a right on, anti tory(boo), left wing/socialist/right side of history (questionable) city in UK…….but
That is not a pre-requisite to support the Albion FFS….
Just be happy for Tony and all he’s all done for the football cub.
I’m a season ticket holder because Tony built the stadium, because he had the vision and ambition to make the club bigger and more successful it has ever been.
It’s never political, social or religious to be a supporter of the club.
Ever
