New CEO

[Swipe]

Dan Roan says we'll appoint new CEO "early in New Year".

 

Using head-hunters Spencer Stuart to lead global search.

reminds me, the old regime had headhunters on the lookout for a CEO didn't they? I wonder how much was wasted on that.

Would have hoped we'd get someone in a bit quicker than than.

[Dan]

Hmm could be good timing that particularly if England don't get the WC, Dein could be available.

are you replying to your own post?

is this one of those mental situations where you've forgotten to switch to your alter ego (probably Chilli Palmer or someone)?

Tell that to stressederic. He's mortified.

 

Think you should target Cobs alter ego "Cots" next though.

Huh?

 

The original post contained none of my own opinions. Just reported facts.

 

The second post contained my own opinion.

I reckon you could have merged the two, we would have spotted the difference

[Swipe]

I was in too much of a rush to claim the scoop in the first post.

 

Won't happen again.

wtf! you're taking the piss there...

yeah Swipe, I agree!

I reckon it didn't really matter and John just never got enough sleep last night.

Why are you getting involved? I already said, I just wanted to be the first to post the news, won't happen again.

 

edit. oops..

[Kvarme Ate My Food]

there used to be a poster with mutliple identities who would slip up from time ti time and reply to his own posts, with things like "thanks for that mate, interesting stuff". I obviously knew that wasn't what Swipe was doing, it just reminded me of it and made me smile. picked Chili almost at random. jeez.

 

second time I've taken a gentle, er, swipe at Swipe recently, and he doesn't seem to like it. imagine how Allardyce must feel.

I think we should have the option to colour code posts to reflect the 'tone' of our comments, so that people don't get confused as to subtexts, or feel the need to use smilies.

 

I suggest :

 

Red : I'm angry and dislike you and this post.

Green : Whether or not I agree with you, I post this is in the context of mutual respect and to further the debate at hand.

 

 

Blue : I've been drinking or have a hangover (and therefore am in a nark) and therefore you can't later hold this post against me.

Mauve : I'm gently teasing

Turquoise : I'm gently teasing, but I don't really like you anyway, but you know that, so be grateful I'm being restrained.

Magenta : I am clearly mocking you, and others, and openly showing no respect.

 

 

Pink - I really like you and your opinions and would like to meet up with you in real life.

No-one can tell though. You're the master of subtleness and have a fearsome history of forum deconstruction.

'finally this lame thread becomes interesting'

 

and white, which means I'm in a bad mood but not hungover or drunk

 

 

 

 

oops, got threads mixed up - it's the giving Roy a chance one that's lame, which means I withdraw the green and mauve and also the actual post....but not the white
