    He had little time to train and his child was ill the night before the game, sorry but if your looking for a club to pay you a wage I'd of expected more endeavour and will to succeed from the guy, he is typical of the type of player we have bogged ourselves down with I'm the past half dozen years who sees us as a dinner ticket as they slide down through the leagues to retirement. 

    Never had kids?

    To this outsider it looks and sounds like absolute chaos.

    Hows about we wait and see who is appointed to replace Moisley?

     

    Personally, it's the close-season. Players are not due back for another two weeks or more. We have a manager in place, AL is working his way through the back office staff to weed out people who don't fit.

     

    If something isn't forthcoming by the first week of July, I'll be more worried.

    Because they are supposed to be acting on behalf of the supporters.

     

    They met with Abdallah, kept it quiet.

     

    Brooke works for the club, not mentioned.

     

    Any useful information, no matter how trivial they think it is, should be revealed.

    I heard the club put a stationary order through last week.

    People want to keep Clarke who was so past his best we loaned him to a rival club? Bury dropped him didn't they? I dread to think what his legs will be like 12 months later.

     

    Gerrard's weight seems to grind people but we wouldn't get a centre half better IMO. Let's see how he goes after a full preseason. 

     

    A goalie who doesn't chuck in most shots on goal would help the back line............. 

    He had a full pre-season last season.

    He's a good leader and would be comfortably one of the best centre halves in that division. If we want to go back up we cannot let everyone go who is on decent money. Get rid of Clarke to keep Gerrard would seem a good deal. 

    He's a big, big player.

     

    Not just in terms of wage but in terms of waist line. He's clearly on the Lee Croft diet.

     

    It isn't the first time tubbs has gone this way, get rid.

    Daughter of a former trust director (several years ago).

     

    Could be interesting.  Probably bollocks.  Look forward to be better informed.

    Really? Assuming you’re speaking of the guy who was locked up, I doubt he had a 40 odd year old daughter.

     

    I’m surprised you’re so pro-Corney, Jeff. I thought you had more nous than that.

    That sounds remarkably like what I do....

    I’ve edited.

     

    All ends up, he’s taken money from a club who ultimately hasn’t survived. He’s had a go at fans for not turning up and he’s profited from the fans that have.

     

    It might not be stealing per se. But he’s no Robin Hood.

    Look, Corney's gone.

     

    Lemdagam is here to save us.

     

    This here tonight feels like we're moving forward.  Just enjoy it, eh?

    Corney is still a director who refuses to resign.

    From what I have read in the past, I think Dave understands accountancy.

     

    I'm looking forward to your reply Blue.  As a starter, I think that "stealing" means taking more out of the club than investing.  

     

    Go for it my friend with facts rather than the usual bollocks about "asset stripping".

     

    If you say that , "massive mistakes have been made", I'm with you.

    Corney has transferred thousands out of the club to support his lifestyle. Call it what you will, but when the football league solidarity payments hit the club accounts and Corney takes his share, I call it stealing.

     

    I wonder how Grace Nuttall is doing at the minute.

    One person's fault?  That's just silly

    The owner? Pretty key ‘person’. The guy who drives the club, ‘invests’ (or actually steals) from the club. The person who chooses the manager.

     

    Corney has lied, cheated and stolen from this club over the last three/four years. Prior to that his intentions and actions may well have been good, but the last few seasons and the culmination in relegation are laid squarely at his feet.

     

    He is far from the messiah and he definitely is a naughty boy.

  10. The dates don't add up but at least there has been some movement...

     

    Club says he left 29th Jan. Companies house says 11th.

    https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/04989487/filing-history

     

    I'm not an expert by an means, but it says the documents were only received for electronic filing yesterday. Perhaps we will see some actual movement legally over the next few days or so.

     

    As for Ian Hill, free away travel on the club coach sounds more than cushy enough for me to do it, given the chance.
