Danny is a passionate loyal fan home and away, probably should of stayed of the sauce but shit happens, at least we've still fans with fight in them. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know. He's asked some good questions and made a big call giving up his coaching role. His passion is admirable. The walk out was silly though. Felt a bit 'look at me'.

Also you say coaching role ?? Unsworthblue was a coach ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Incidentally, being a loyal supporter doesn’t make them special. Everyone on here is. Being outspoken is fine, but it doesn’t mean you are right and his behaviour was poor frankly (to be polite). Just shouting the odds and walking out when you don’t like an answer is a bit childish. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. It was daft and there was an element of wanting to be noticed. I'm glad someone gives a fuck though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightDN123 331 Posted October 12 Maybe he walked out as he was getting increasingly aggravated by the twat who is Barry Owen. Imagine admitting that Corney pulled your pants down yet you are still on the board and it’s more than likely going to happen again. Made me laugh “Barry Owen Investigation”. Fuck off Barry, clearly not fit for purpose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fuck off Barry, clearly not fit for purpose. More reason to stay there, remain calm and dismantle him. Owen seems massively out of his depth to me so it wouldn’t be difficult, coupled with the fact that he is not very bright, lacks any self awareness and can’t read a mood, he’s an easy target.

mcfluff1985 957 Posted October 12 First time I've seen BO speak at any length. Wow. Not surprised he gets the level of grief on here that he does. Obviously a number of these players aren't good enough yet or up to scratch. Players like Fage though when someone was screaming who wants him, he's young. He obviously has ability. Is he ready to play week in week out? Not yet. He's 20. He's shown glimpses of what he can do but he's constantly played in different positions. Definitely not a left back though 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

al_bro 221 Posted October 12 So BO lied (or doesn't know) about AL owning 97% of the shares. He will get a shock when the FLG appoint a new board member (that will go down well with AL). Does anyone know how the shares became split, or who owns them? The only way this could have happened as I see it is if Corney sold them, or they were kept by Blitz when he left Corney to it.

Having shares doesn't give anyone the right to appoint a director unless there is a very specific clause in the Articles. I'd be mighty surprised if that was the case.

mcfluff1985 957 Posted October 12 Apart from pissing AL off, what will owning a minority of shares do to affect the running of the club in a positive manner? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That alone... nothing. Can’t typically appoint a director either, despite what al_bro says. It’s just a shareholding. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was wrong there. I don't see the point in the FLG buying for arguments sake 10%, they still have no say in what happens. Is it just being done to annoy AL, or maybe they think it puts them in the driving seat wen AL decides to sell. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it just being done to annoy AL, or maybe they think it puts them in the driving seat wen AL decides to sell. It doesn’t put them in the driving seat at the point of a sale in any way. It’s just to annoy him. The shares could be worthless very soon. Hope they got them cheap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walk out when very annoyed at some of the responses, calm down and then go back in again doesn't the worse course of action, But again we are deflecting from what the Board said. Lets get back to what the Board and Barry said. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
