    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    Somewhere within this mine & HT's posts we're all saying the same thing. The only dispute is at what point Bloom pipes up. My guess is earlier in proceedings than Herr's, that's all.

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    No I don't, I'm saying PB works within Tony's structure and Tony's financial constraints on the club. You appear to be saying PB has autonomy.

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    Who else is putting money into the club and/or under writing debt?

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    ...within the structure and financial constraints set down by Tony. I don't imagine anything above a certain level is just 'rubber stamped' by Tony, who lets face it is the board. I don't dispute PB has a hell of a lot of leeway within that and controls an awful lot, but at the end of the day...

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    Tony doesn't strike me as a man who as the figure head of a £120+m investment to then take a back seat, while underwriting ongoing debt.

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    This is the bit I don't get. So you're emails, does hitting resend count as emails?, have gone unanswered, how is the next step cc the CEO? I'm sure the OP has been properly hard done by a fair few times, this year alone, I doubt he ever contemplated going straight to the top, on any other...

    while others are easily offended.

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    He's well paid for his CEO job. As for dealing with us lot I wouldn't be surprised if it worked out he was on minimum wage.

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    No we're not, and it's that self righteous attitude that is taking PB away from the most important matters at the club. I wish it were different. I wish the money was even distributed. I wish clubs were given a fairer chance. But they are not and PB's job is to try and give us a punchers...

    Tony Bloom is infallible. Tony Bloom's right hand man is rubbish at his job. So either Tony Bloom is fallible or neither statement is correct. You just can't have it both ways.

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    and then there's that side to him. Not something I care for, quite why anyone would want to occasionally sound just like a Politian, when they get so little respect is beyond me. What was the straight down the line 'blunt' comment he made a couple of months ago? I thought it was fantastic, it...

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    Because in the whole scheme of things that's exactly what we are. We are the single drop of rain in lake Windermere, nobody likes it, everybody would prefer it to be different, but fundamentally a £40 a month patron v a 5 year AMEX sponsorship, is a no brainer. Even more so when you realise if...

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    Whereas I struggle to see what more Barber can do. Ultimately TB holds the purse strings. Barber has his remit set down by Tony, and Paul is so good he can clear £100,000+ in bonuses. Tony, quite rightly, is untouchable. That doesn't mean there has to be an 'enemy'. While he's trying to day...

    Paul Barber - a thoroughly likeable guy actually

    That's such a crock of s***. Are you actually saying the man in change and runs everything gets the benefit of the doubt, because he did the things you like. But for every decision you don't like one of the employees is responsible.
