The biggest issue is that no one knows what is the truth and what is a genuine troll. I’ve seen the comments and response and my first thought was it could never be proven and it seemed like a wind up to me.
I’ve also seen White/Hilton’s response saying it’s not him.
There needs to be some firm lines drawn.
1. Only communication with Fans has to be formal through the club, not via any social media outlet.
2. Disassociation with any members/admins of any social media groups.Maybe then all this BS will stop.
I also do not agree with how the banning orders have been handled and it’s a sad day for the club that genuine supporters are no longer welcome. I fear the situation is only going to get worse.

I have seen his post comments on Facebook. I thought it was very very strange that he said “this is a lie” and then immediately switched into talking about the bans.
I think anyone with decency would most likely have said “I am devastated by this, it’s a heinous slur, I would never ever say anything like this, I will track down the people responsible for this terrible mistruth, I will get my solicitors involved” etc etc.
I certainly wouldn’t expect them to just brisk past it as if it’s the least important part of the screenshot, and move on to justifying banning orders.

The Lower League Look claiming they have proof. It will be interesting to see what they have.
The American financial journalist also saying there is more to come re: Wham.

Some on here dislike him, find him a worrying character, but the comments are mostly critique, even if strongly put. It’s not abuse, which is unlike Hilton’s comments directed at the site and fans. This is yet more divisive rhetoric from him, which has been an unfortunate theme for his entire ownership. He expects to be held responsible for nothing.

I really hope future owners stay off social media. It rarely ends well and creates division. Whatever is posted on social media from the owner or Board should be posted on the club’s website so it’s more accessible to all fans – specially those that don’t / won’t entertain Twitter and Facebook

It’s worth a listen to ‘The Hard Truth’ podcast , it’s quite good and they touch on the Scunny and Southend situations near the end .

If Mr Wagstaff or Mr Wharton (for example) had started putting out club info in this manner rather than through official channels I would have been seriously alarmed. It’s highly unprofessional and completely compromises the credibility of the club itself – and it absolutely causes chaos. As I have said above, you have to wonder if that is the intention.

An external review at some point, in the future, of how social media communications played it’s part in this car crash would be beneficial I reckon. Lots of lessons to be learned. Might aswell add it to the novel about a fictional non-league side in turmoil and the Netflix drama.
