I think Matt’s wasting his time and energy trying to talk any sense in to him or his cohorts. Futile.

[Deereyme66]

If I had £2m I’d be doing the right thing and pay those debts off, stop the ccjs and ex players and lenders screaming for what they’re owed and not risk the club going under

Well given nobody has a scooby where his actual income comes from or the àctual amount he’s put into the club, I’d say it’s a total wild guess

[Deereyme66]

And smaller venues to run

[Deereyme66]

Agreed. Was about to post something similar earlier and got distracted. Incredible that the man comes to the rescue when needed and stumps up that level of cash and now gets called that, regardless of what happened next

I could understand the reasons for and for not attending that meeting and respect his decision.

I saw that and the other arguments on Twitter last night when he’d clearly got the wrong info and end of the stick about stuff posting and deleted on Bru. Absolutely ridiculous. Glad a few Twitter posters were able to put him straight on what actually happened, with correct info. I hope all this crap and division that emanates from that page and fuelled by their mods and you know who is addressed at this future meeting of groups with all the Directors present, as I’m not sure how au fait they will be with all the abusecand threats, and will surely be appalled and act accordingly?

[Deereyme66]

Thought it sounded like a lot. Glad you cleared that up

Awaywego

[Deereyme66]

Thought he said in one of his many Facebook posts that it was all sustainable on gates of 4,500 or thereabouts? Back in May / June I think. What happened to that grand plan?

[Deereyme66]

Oh, didn’t notice the link had been shared on this thread too. As I said on the other thread, I think this statement is welcome (as opposed to silence) and look forward to hearing more about their plans in the coming weeks. Also welcome because many fans can’t, don’t or won’t rely on social media for updates.

A welcome statement from the Board – look forward to hearing more about those plans.

[Deereyme66]

Christ on a bike! Just read through all the responses about it on there. Absolute insanity – a new level has been reached. I’m glad the worst left Bru so we don’t have to mop up their messes as much.

[Deereyme66]

There’s not a surprise. ‘We’ll have no trouble causers here! On your way stranger!!’

[Deereyme66]

‘Some sit and wait to expose something – put it out there.’

Not as simple as that. Threat of being sued, abused, etc. That’s why it’s best to keep an open mind and not blindly trust everything a club owner says, or worse still, mock, intimidate and insult those that question. Might have a fighting chance then. I’m speaking generally btw. Nothing personal.

[Deereyme66]

Literal lol. I didn’t see that. Par for the course.

Second point – Exactly

Behavè Rene

[Deereyme66]

We do. So are you saying sod those that need paying as long as we have a club to support?

[Deereyme66]

Someone’s assembled and paid for an excellent squad awaywego, to the extent of not paying those who are legally entitled to be paid. Not right is it?

[Deereyme66]

Pertinent I thought…

“It’s called populism. Whether it’s Russell Brand or Liz Truss… this idea there is conspiracy everywhere is really dangerous.”

Oh aye, let’s not rock the boat, let’s not dredge up the shit at the bottom of the pot. Let’s pretend it’s not there.

That aside, pointing out an ITFC like achieves little IMO. Hey ho.

[Deereyme66]

Don’t include me in that list please. Without knowing IB’s personal circumstances and reasons for so many disclosures and posts, I’m not prepared to brand him as obsessive or weird. Some posts have been perhaps unhelpful, but then we’re all guilty of that from time to time aren’t we?

Heath

[Deereyme66]

Yes, obviously I didn’t mean confident ìn general, or there’d need to be a serious redefinition of the word.

[Deereyme66]

‘All remarks about DH’s spending look pretty kosher to me.’

Really Les, how can you be so confident given what he’s previously said and what he’s saying now? I dread to think what an independent examination of the finances might reveal but without one, i think it’s sheer folly to take it on its word.

‘If those who want him gone haven’t got it yet – he walks, the club goes under’

Does it? Does him saying that make it so? Forgive me for not buying in to his every word. Can’t think why I don’t?

Just to be clear btw, as I’ve said before, I don’t want him cutting loose yet. Prefer if he stayed for more scrutiny.

That’s fine I-A but you don’t seem to ‘roll with it’ when responding to IB, II / IE very often.

‘Many on here are enjoying being able to say i told u so about hilton’

No they aren’t. Nobody is saying ‘I told you so’ or enjoying what’s happening in the slightest.

A few of them were blaming The Athletic and naysayers for a potential low performance before a ball had been kicked.

[Deereyme66]

Really can’t be bothered to go in to great detail to justify why I class them as’types’ JI. Suffice to say they all share similar conspiracy theorist supporting, pseudo free speech warrior, narcissistic, right wing traits in what the say and write. I’m done with this subject btw. Hope the victims go to the police and he gets what he deserves and they get some justice

I named 3 above JI. Add Hartley Brewer, Galloway, Tate and more to the list.

[Deereyme66]

Indeed you can
