If anyone has seen the work they’ve done I can’t imagine them getting any work again from anyone with eyes in their headsThat is what I was told. The contractor has worked for both clubs for years and is a well established business in Gateshead. I don't know who ordered the signs or allowed them to be brought to the ground but the contractors were left to do the work as instructed by whoever employed them (don't know if it was us or them) as they have worked at the stadium on numerous occasions over the years and were trusted contractors.
This has obviously been an error on somebody's part and think a full investigation will be needed but for me it needs to be done professionally and away from the spotlight. I think that jobs may be lost and reputations tarnished but hope that we do not have a full blown media circus around it. Let KLD sort this as he has taken ultimate responsibility as all good leaders do but he will be privately seething at what has happened and you can guarantee he will not roll over on this one.
