I regard Ridsdale's tenure as Chairman as equally disasterous as Hammams.

Bet that shocked you Annis?!! Yes it has, but in MY OPINION YOU CANT EVEN COMPARE THEM.

Hammam put money in, but took a hell of a lot more out - and will still get a sizeable sum if/when the Malaysians take over.

Stop peddling the lie that he's lost millions. Very few are fooled by this anymore.

Ridsdale put nothing in and has taken a shed load out.

Both were/are in it for their own financial gain and over-inflated egos.

I'll be happy when neither have any connection with our club whatsoever.

Sam put £3.5 million approx when he arrived to buy the Club and pay its Debts off. Langston Sams Company lent City £24 Million, also before Sam left He agreed to write off £6 million.
Langston have agreed to cut £24 million to £10 Million.
Yes he had a wage, but where has he made money and from who, he might have wasted loads on that I would agree.

Why did our club need to borrow £24m?

Hammam took an extortionate wage as well, or have you forgotten?

Has he ever revealed to you what he also took in "expenses"?

You clearly believe every word this man tells you. Sorry, you've been had.

Oh my god! another thread turning into we love/we hate Sam Hammam!!!

The simple fact of the matter is that he was totally wreckless, but without him, we wouldnt have progressed to where we are now - He started the dream, but sadly, due to his $$$ enlightened tunnel vision couldn't complete the task!

Yes he did, but I never really worked there except on a odd occasion as I was working in the Prince wales Ceasars at the time in St mary Street Cardiff.

And exactly what proof have you got of this Claude?

Sam borrowed £24m to take us to the premiership. He got us as far as the top of the championship before it all went wrong with the entrance of Ridsdale.

The money Sam borrowed via Langston is unsecured. Basically he stands to lose the lot especially if the club goes into admin like Ridsdale threatened to do. So to say he nearly brought the club down then you have to admit he did so at the risk of a great lose to himself.
