I think he is doing a grand job, and thank him for everything he has done for the club, but he doesnt half like blowing his own trumpet when good things happen at the club.

When things arent going so well, he is hard to find.

Take this Savage signing, who is the first person we get to hear from, not the player, not our manager, but the chairman.

Dont dislike Mr Chairman, just an observation like

I do not begrudge Dick any moments of glory after all the shite he has had to put up with over the last 11 years. He deserves it more than anyone.

Whoever decided it and signed the form its great news and as Dick is probably having to cough up the best part of 10k a week for his services he deserves any glory that comes from it. Its a major coup for the club.

I like it in the playoff final DVD he has a fruedian slippage by saying "MY fans are delighted!".

I like the bloke don't get me wrong, but he definitely reckons he's an Albion legend.

Well he's not wrong then is he.

And so he deserves too! if it wasn't for him we would probably be called FC Brighton playing in the ryman!

It is a major coup, but its pretty common knowledge that Knight isnt the money man on the board, also Savage isnt signing until tomorrow, so there is a tiny chance this doesnt go through, but there is no reason it shouldnt

Errr...there's a reason for that. We'd all be watching crap huddled under a bus shelter at Lewes or somewhere rather than beating the richest club in the world if he'd not done his thing.

Don't recall him saying too much after the Man City game.

Besides, what would yo want him to say when the team is playing shite?

I saw him just before he went on Hartys show after the game. There was a tear in his eye and a lump in his throat.

He is Albion through and through and thanks to him and his consortium we still have a club.

its not so much when the team is playing shite - its when there is a cock up in general that he seems to dissapear

classic example is the the turienzo signing - he was more than happy to let mcghee take the fall for that one, yet you can bet your bottom dollar had he have scored 30 goals and kept us up that year then knight would have milked the plaudits
