Also Ian was wrong in his point as Lofthouse has pointed out.

Voting was and is a waste of time when they vote to issue even more shares for nothing.

When the team hit a sticky patch then will be time to judge.

There are too many good people being fobbed off by the control freaks.
It’s sad but it will all end badly in my opinion

You obviously know far more about this than the majority on here Robbo, so can you explain to me and probably others, if Cas hit this "sticky patch" what do you think will happen? What is the nightmare scenario? Not on a wind up here just interested to see what you think will happen and why?

If we have a bad season, most teams could have this scenario, then the consequences are falling attendances. If we have a bad run with injuries, as any team could, this will also impact their n things.

The big problem I feel is if the new stadium doesn’t happen, why does anyone think it will just now with the state of the country and brexit issues, this is where things get sticky for want of another phrase. No new ground, stay at WR will mean there isn’t any money to improve it. If the loans outstanding are called in then unless there is anyone out there willing to pay the current owner then we are either out of business or the current continues to keep the loan in place.

When you hear what he has done so far this for me is far more worrying than having a bad season or two. If we have a bad season or two and there isn’t any money to improve the squad, as the current situation appears to be, then would the coach stay in place? If not then what?

Having said this I feel we have the coach to win us trophies, the players if we stay fit can challenge and the crowds should be good if these two things happen. We have had some good years since DP was put in place and he seems to be a loyal kind of guy so for me looking good just now.

It’s the off field antics that are the concern for me. Do I trust IF and the BOD? No I don’t, not one bit.

I worry the BOD is no longer balanced in the sense they have removed shareholders.
As there is little that I can do it’s a case of enjoying the match and let them get on with it.
We have no plan b and the ground is not going to happen in my opinion.
So we need some serious cash very soon

If Mr Caddick had takeover many moons ago, just think how different things could have been. Imagine the new south stand in place of our aging wooden stand!

Well if you believe some people he was turned away and the rest as they say is history.

Hearing it’s been fun and games in the sun!
