‘happy when the club has gone .. sounds to me like just a shrug of the shoulders for some.’
Disappointing IFA. Do you really believe that? I understand a lot of supporters are legitimately worried that if he leaves the club will fold but that’s not necessarily the case. There’s a Board and steady income with no rent till at less Jan probably later. It’s up to them and him whether he stays or goes. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have opinions on the allegations in the The Atheltic piece and Hiltons response. You mention ‘blase’ and ‘a few porky pies’ in the same breath. Nothing blasé about it but there’s a lot more to it than a few porky pies. Have you read the whole article?

‘You can be the Boston Strangler for me’
And there it is. Nothing he has done will make a jot for some.

Who’s ‘you gullible lot’? There were plenty of supporters up in arms about it but hands tied to actually stop it. Good to see you’re deflecting though. Hilton still not given you anything to worry about yet, past and present?

‘Hope he continues on the path of redemption.’
Serious question JI. At what point have you witnessed this redemption you speak of? Today, after being forced to admit? Sorry, not seeing it mate. Hollow words from him in my opinion.

There’s absolutely no self righteousness in any of Siderite’s posts on this matter today. There’s certainly much deflection from others. It’s easy to take it out on other posters rather than address the detail of the allegations, the most alarming of which Hilton has admitted to after being found out.

I often wonder if some of our supporters just want us to fail and go into liquidation, I also wonder if one of those two posters spinning dirt about Hilton isn’t that journalist.
I seriously doubt any Iron supporter wants the club to be liquidated and this issue is not ‘dirt spinning’. It’s serious allegations that Hilton has now admitted to.

Seriously wonder how many fans of here and other social media platforms have actually read the article in The Athletic given a lot of the content of the responses? I’d wager a small percentage of those posting comments. This one from the Facebook group sums it up:
‘he’s just a normal guy who had a shit start and made something of him self, suffers with stress and adores his family’
Really?? Ffs!

The Atheltic is a well respected publication and platform not The Daily Mail. No comparison

I hope an emergency board meeting is convened to decide the best course of action. Mr Hilton’s interview didn’t touch on a number of other issues alleged in the Athletic piece, such as the pension provider writing to staff to tell them contributions shown as being made on their payslips not actually being received by them. As for ‘destroying an individual’, don’t make me laugh. No supporter or non-supporter on here or other social media platforms has destroyed him. All they have done is highlight what are now confirmed as facts.

If these allegations are not enough for all Iron fans to question his suitability as a football club owner, then I don’t what is. As for those blaming fans that have raised the same concerns as the allegations, they should have a good think about their moral and ethical principles
