    Hate to say it, we need to stop buying tickets and stop turning up until these ****s (and that includes KLD) are out of our club. As long as we keep paying to watch this **** they will continue taking the piss out of us. Now we know why the pitch wasn’t done as it should have been. The spivs said so.

    I wonder why the club has recruited so extensively, would it be so the club can run smoothly day to day while the spivs stay away and the “owner” can continue his life without the annoyance of running a club that’s not really his.

    I want to get out of this league more than I want to risk protests damaging the team more than it is now. Suspect Saturday will be another write off with this news but fingers crossed we get something uplifting from tomorrows RAWA meeting

    KLD may or may not be naive however his professional business advisors are most certainly not. They would have gone through the deal with a fine tooth comb. I suspect that there is yet more to be disclosed but at a time and place of KLD choosing. There is power politics at play here but what is actually going on I have no idea. Time will tell

    For the record my money would be on KLD to gain control in due course. He may already have it in relation to actual voting shares . I think it's now just a question of how much it will cost to obtain the balance of Donald's shares

    I do too but we need to face the fact that promotion is probably out this season anyway and next season we will need to start again with the next batch of kids and freebies.
    I am so angry and sick of this **** right now that I feel we need to make a collective stand once and for all, no need for coffins or shouting or protests it’s on the whole embarrassing, just stop turning up, none of them can ignore that it’s impossible to and shows the feelings of the fans rather than the hierarchy being able dismiss some ****e protest with 200 attendees as being a vocal minority.

    So disappointed about hearing of the share split if true......just been smoke and mirrors ploy for the fans. If there was nothing wrong in their eyes with this agreement why keep it secret?

    I think the last bit is true though he’d have been lifting.
    I think the first bit is kind of untrue and a bit unfair.

    I'm interested to see what KLD has to say between now and the end of the season. I will continue to go until the end of the season but will make a decision on season ticket renewal based on what I hear from the club

    Promotion is not out of the question yet and I for one won’t do anything that could jeopardise that. I’ll still turn up and get behind the team.

    If and when we can’t get promoted…that’s a different story.

    He may have been terrible but we will never really know. However this deal wasn’t what we wanted from day 1 and they then lied about it for 12 months.
    The first point is my take on the current ownership situation and with all the cloak and dagger bullshit since this deal was announced it’s probably as right as anyone else’s point of view. It’s guesswork because they have bullshitted since day 1 and I think it’s unforgivable. I am done with these ****ers now there’s no way back from these lies. There’s a reason they didn’t tell us from the start and given their history with the club I don’t think I can be blamed for thinking it’s the worst reason possible.

    We’d be in a right mess with Storey as overall owner, he just comes across as a massive con man. There’s enough news articles about the bloke and his “businesses”

    You are probably right but I suspect it may have taken longer than 12 months and look at where we are tonight, 4 conmen in charge instead.

    Delaying the inevitable, this squad won’t win a playoff final they don’t have the staying power. I feel we won’t even make top 6 right now things are that ****ty behind the scenes. Just waiting for the Hoffman bombshell to blow. There’s something seriously amiss there and again we are not being told about it .

    Its been a terrible few weeks, yes automatic promotion as good as gone......BUT were still in a decent position for the playoffs, Neil already recognises whats wrong, if he gets that over in training, lifts the mood & confidence absolutely no reason we cant enter the playoffs the in form team & FINALLY put to bed our shocking playoof record.

    We have as much if not more chance that others to go up via the playoffs.....now is not a time for defeatism, yes things seriously need addressing which I suspect is KLD wants tgis club but the kert SD is making it difficult.

    This could, im hoping, be have a positive spin, as in KLD wants the club so badly, hes invested time & money setting us up from the bottom, that hes been willing to work with the chancers until he can get shot of them.

    Lets in the main concentrate on getting out of this league & KTF

    Even if Sartori has given up his rights, the thought of them two bastards owning 39% is sickening to the core

    Whilst I agree with the gut feeling the practical aspects is that KLD runs the show, has nearly a shut out on the board, biggest share holder and has JS for any decision he wants.

    In time the stooges will piss off and KLD will take it.

    The club have screwed up and the communication has been shocking, misjudging the fan rage of madrox. That's their fatal error.

    If his wealth is all its cracked up to be it is insignificant to him even if Donald wanted 75 million for his 34 percent. KLD needs to step up to the plate and get his wallet out before he loses the remaining goodwill of the fans. Pay them what they want and get ****ing rid. Or don't and sell up your shares to someone with the bollocks to deal with the spivs themselves.
