Eddie's latest sales patter.

On that score you may be correct (though I think you underestimate other challenges).

Problem is you don't realise which side of that particular see-saw you are sitting.

Neither did an open mind.

You need to start accepting that some of the things you claim as fact or evidence are naive, ill informed or just plain wrong.

I have made my choice and will promote it, I applaud anyone who does the same regardless of the choice they make and maybe they might convince me to join them. I remain open to new arguments about anything even West Ham United
