If you could have any Chairman who would you go for?

I would go for Rod Stewart as he seems a good guy, a footie fan and may be convinced to give his share to HUST when he croaks (get it ? :laugh:

).
He is 80!

Raj wouldn't sell the club to Rod - he'd want it for a song.

I phoned Rod up and asked him if he’d be interested in buying Pools but just said I don’t want to talk about it...so I said look Rod, give it a go, you’ll be a hero with the fans …but again he said it’s a heartbreak….So I tried a different approach and said Have I told you lately you’re perfect for the job…he smiled and replied…I’d need a Reason to believe you mean it….come to think of it Maggie May chip in too…so This old heart of mine says yes, let’s go for it clappp

Some insanely-rich local gadgie with a whiff of lavender about him.

Our strips would be fuckin' amazing if nowt else, and never underestimate the power of the "pink pound"..!

Sing when we're rimming, we only sing when we're rimming....

He was going to sing at Thatchers funeral but "Wake up Maggie" was not considered appropriate.

Steve Gibson from the borer

Unfortunately he was born the wrong side of the Tees - to have been interested in ploughing his riches into Pools :doh:

Borer fans don't realise just how good they've had it under his outstanding stewardship for almost 40 (FORTY) years!

It properly boils my piss when they go on Tees Radio (when they haven't won) and whinge about what a hard time their having. You have to be getting on for 50 years old to remember when they used to regularly get crowds of about 7-8k in what is now the Championship

They need to do a season or two in our shoes, to recognise what committed support looks like and appreciate what they had and continue to have! :angry-tappingfoot:

Funny you should say that. I fell asleep last night and thought Rod had been announced as the new owner. Then our lass woke me up cos I was snoring and I realized it was A Broken Dream

the richest possible person who would be totally happy to spend spend spend on the club and take a back seat where even we,d forget his name.

The older and preumably wiser version? Interesting idea that mate.

We'll need some new chants mind.

He's tall, he's slim,
He's never out the gym..!

He'll flash, his cash,
And put Singh on the Nash..!

Might need a bit more work, but I'm warming to the idea...
