    A better approach might be regular consultation with fans and the Trust. Not sure an elected fan Director is necessary with this ownership to be honest. They are not removed from the fan base like the previous two incumbents.

    Thanks for sorting all this Matt. Should make the Euro’s a bit more interesting.

    Why? They’d only get accused of milking it and not representing fellow supporters as some thing they should.

    Now wanting money back from Hilton!
    So what money do we want back from Hilton.

    WE don’t want any money back from Hilton, you were having a dig at Sharpe for wanting his loan repaid when Hilton was in charge.

    Could have saved himself getting the old abacus out!

    Me thinks your back of a fag packet stream of consciousness doesn’t tally with reality. Are you taking tips off Farage?

    I’m guessing Butler knows more than us about his potential to keep fit and flourish. We’ll see.

    Didn’t you put George AItkenhead into Company check Deerey net worth £4 million same with not so Sharp I think you’ll find.

    I’ll give you those two awaywego. Great they’re fully on board then though can’t expect them to fund the club without added supporter income. All part of becoming sustainable and relying less on the ownership to bail out so often and avoiding inheriting silly money budgets.

    Yes, and also the first season back in claret and blue. Disconcerting for those of us who’d only known an all red kit. New scarves and hats were bought. Was rather fond of this shirt though

    Looking forward to the next new signing who was ‘kicking about on Twitter’.

    I suspect that’s sarcasm aimed at awaywego, who mocked supporters for raising funds with ‘multimillionaires’ on the Board. I’ve not yet managed to ascertain who on our current board is a ‘multimillionaire’, (according to awaywego). They don’t appear on any high net worth lists as far as I’m aware, so unless he can verify it, I reckon it might be BS. Don’t know about Darlo’s owners, Johnston, Jowett and Stockdale.

    A supporter like awaywego might say about the £1.7m, ‘well, it’s the Chairman’s money. He can do what he likes’. Just the small issue of Hilton not having the money.

    ‘They need a media room which has been set up to deaden the sound.’

    The Royal Hotel maybe?

    Abuse from the majority of fans? The majority of views I saw were praiseworthy or unsure. ‘Abuse’ was thin on the ground, if at all.

    It was a constant effort not to switch the volume off when Dean was being interviewed.

    Wonder what their definition of ‘some sort of sustainability’ is? Be a shame if it’s hollow words and they’re left with a huge unsustainable budget if and when the big spenders leave.

    Tinternet Deerey,
    Its a business not a bloody charity.

    A website listing their actual net worth? I know they’re all pretty wealthy but it’s a grand claim that they’re all ‘multimillionaires’. Know someone in that field. Have asked to fact check seeing as you’re a bit vague about it.

    Keep the fundraising going lads to help them poor little multi millionaires who own the club.

    Multi-millionaires? Where you getting that information from?

    Please speak more clearly, man!

    Just listened. I think that’s a bit harsh tbh and he’ll get used to doing more interviews. No need for media training IMO. The interviewer’s (James?) sound was much higher / closer so it’s more a case making sure he’s miked up properly next time I reckon. At one point the passing train’s almost as loud as his speech. If I stuck my phone speaker to my ear I could hear everything he said, but only at full volume. He’s just a quiet speaker, but articulate enough.

    When you’re used to dining at Michelin Star restaurants it’s difficult to go into Pizza Hut!

    No going back once you’ve been given a free Pat Burger.

    It’s a shame as many supporters weren’t making as many noises about Hilton until it was almost too late.
