Night night Pat, have a good one duck.

It’s heartwarming that you think about us every minute of everyday Pat.

I feel a bit bad now, it’s only because we’re envious, any chance we could all be mates again? I would let you tell me about your world class plastic pitch, or whatever else you want to talk about.

As long as it’s world class and about Ilkeston.

[ironingboard]

I think he could smell his world class burgers burning and had to see to his precious meat.

[ironingboard]

I don’t think you understand much at all, vegetables probably, world class Ilkeston vegetables of course.

Takes one to know one I suppose.

[ironingboard]

I don’t live in Scunthorpe, I live in a different county.

[ironingboard]

I can honestly say I have never heard anyone utter the words “I’m envious of Ilkeston Town”.

You’re right, the Nally’s are always in the media https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/local-news/reports-police-officer-hit-gate-6632534

An appropriate long eared easter disguise.

I’m going to take a guess that it is about the secret of Michelle standing down.

This could open some pretty big floodgates of disastrousness.

Wonder if he’s got a spare complimentary ticket for Hereford away ?

He’ll be using that to lure in the big spenders, perfect bait for his hook.

[ironingboard]

I guess I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt for the time being, but there was a strong whiff of bullshit bingo buzzwords from the statement.

Statistically statistics are correct 50% of the time, everytime.

I love you, yes I do, and I really wish I could spend all my money on you Iron.

Cant say this season but every time I went in for tickets last season there were always 4 in the shop, I remarked about it at the time.
So that says full-time to me.

I don’t think seeing four staff members in the same place at the same time is evidence of full time contracts.

Ps, did everyone notice how many were working in the club shop who were thanked 4 yes 4.
How can a NLN team run with that ffs. Cut the cloth for where we are.

Are they all full time? Or perhaps they are part time or job share? Adding up to whole time equivalents.

Basing staffing levels purely on the league level isn’t sensible. You also have to cater for the volume of punters you have coming through the door / online orders.

Less staff could lead to loss of income as you can’t meet demand.

Michelle needs a couple of forklifts to move hers, MASSIVE.

[ironingboard]

I’m feeling a slight bit of unease. Gripping the arms of the chair a little more.

The timing of all this nonsense couldn’t have been any worse.

I’m hoping these are just some choppy waters and things settle.

Their treatment of people is beyond contempt.

Still Cass will be along soon telling us about how the board are still doing wonders.

Not good PR, not a good luck, don’t they realize that other companies can see all their dirty washing, hardly a “come and invest and support us” but then again shouldn’t think their bothered.

I don’t think this is entirely fair as this is looking more and more like the board isn’t working as one. A darkside and a benevolent.

It’s the ‘clear directive that became noticeable a number of months ago’, the praise for Michelle and Roj, the total absence of thanks or praise for AchingHead, Sharp and CEO Roberts, and the bit on James Moody fighting the Merch Labs corner to the very end. That all suggests to me that there is huge tension and massive internal difficulty at the Club. Can we read into this, on top of Smoking Goat’s comments about Sharp, that the problems are now not just confined to the boardroom and the two factions power-pissing in there? Has the whole place gone toxic again?

I don’t like this because I think it could be right on the money.

Wharton and Swann pretty much the same debt in monetary terms allowing for inflation Wharton.
Hilton no where near he only owned the club.

Take it you checked on Whartons losses.

Last time I checked Wharton hadn’t separated the club from it’s largest asset.

Pity Bucksiron and Pat O’Cake aren’t around still to offer the Board free PR Guru nous and catering expertise.

Have you tried saying their name three times?

I’ll have no problem either cos they won’t get a penny from me.

Ever thought of just purchasing more of the club lottery tickets £10 monthly and save the club all the hassle and the cost of setting up another scheme.
There’s really no need for something else.

The lottery is run by an external organisation. Ad such, they’ll take a slice of any lottery tickets bought.

A Trust/club/fan membership scheme would ideally mean 100% of monies going into the club.

Awaywego wrote:

Way off the mark Renes suggestion is virtually a carbon copy of Chester and Darlo’s membership scheme but there they own the whole club one member one vote.
Just read Renes post again he’s on about monthly ffs Chesters £2 a month and you become an owner.

But with Renes suggestion the owners can walk away at any time.
Honestly do you really want to give the owners money after what they were intending doing. Or letting them buy another Banjo Beck lol.

As stated above, yes I wouldn’t have a problem with it.

I don’t expect everyone to support it or want to do it, but it’s voluntary. Personal choice.

In the short term/medium term it’s a model that could work to bridge the deficit gap the club is experiencing; with that you’d have to expect some form of representation within the club though.

Yes, I do think something like this could help short/medium term whilst searching for the elusive unicorn of a 5th investor.

I didn’t really think about it in terms of fan representation but it would be appreciated and I think beneficial.
