No. That doesn’t paint an accurate picture. In addition, to training, he also proposed moving day to day ops to Ilkeston and closing the academy. For many supporters, including The Iron Trust this raised huge concerns as it effectively would move the club out of the town, apart from matchdays at GP. This set a number of supporters on social media speculating he might want to merger / do a MK Dons. This was wrong.
‘Shouting from the rooftops’? Not true. It would be better if all this was remembered more accurately and fairly.
Not only that, but those who didn’t like the idea of training and operations being run from Ilkeston are being made out to be saying we thought we’d be playing down there. If these fans could refrain from making pathetic mischaracterisations it would be helpful.
If Hilton’s idea to move training to Ilkeston had any merit it wouldn’t need people to pretend that critics were all saying it would be an MK Dons situation.
