Broughton - a final goodbye

[Leyton388]

Thank you Martin. Time for NESV to strip Freddie Bowell and the life presidency and give it to Broughton.

Top notch professional.

Got so much abuse and criticism for no reason and I am glad he proved all doubters wrong that business integrity comes ahead of an personal (club) fan devotions.

Thank you Mr. Broughton

He was the ultimate professional throughout and acted with class and dignity, never really courted the media until the end, and ultimately took us to where we needed to go. He also showed himself to have a large pair of cojones when faced with the last minute interference from TH and GG when they attempted to sack CP and IA.

Well done Martin Broughton you will never walk alone!

I don't mean to rain on the parade but I don't really see why people are so thankful. Yes, the yank ****ers are gone and we are free of debt but do we have cause to be grateful to Mr. Broughton yet?

Kind of answering your own question here...

Not really, we're playing ****e football and need new players, not to mention a class manager. Broughton's sale of the club won't necessarily give us that.

[brightred]

Maybe i'm being overly negative but just don't get why people are so grateful.

The man was doing his job, and being very well paid.

Keep the faith, mate! All in good time. What is required is a little patience.

You're right! I'm just being grumpy. Time to open that bottle of wine methinks!!

Well done Martin. You pretty much kept your promises. Time will tell if you picked the right owners, but so far so good.

You do realise that there are an awful lot of people that are doing their jobs not very well, and are still rewarded. Hodgson for instance.

The way that Broughton completely tied H&G in knots, despite them trying to fire the board, undermine him, and going to court in two continents speaks volumes. He knew exactly what he was doing, and was confident in his ability to deliver his objective. I think there are very few people that would have got the same outcome in those very difficult, yet very public, high pressure circumstances.

That is why I am grateful.

He was the epitome of a professional businessman who knows what he's doing, knows how to handle a situation, knows how to conduct himself and has the experience to keep a cool head in difficult times.

Thanks Mr Broughton, your efforts will not be forgotten. A gentleman and a pro. If only he'd been conducting LFC's off-field business for the past decades...

All the best Martin.

were your grateful to the team when we won no5? after all the players were just doing their job and they are very very well paid.
