And this is my biggest fear. This whole episode is doing long lasting damage to our club, in particular, the fan base.

We are losing fans because so many have become completely disillusioned with the team, the manager and the owners.

Fans like something to brag about on a Monday at work or school, but we have had very little to cheer in the last couple of seasons.

I'm really concerned that the next generation of potential fans will switch allegiance to a more successful club, or worse still, give up following football all together.
What a lot of people from he outside miss is the sheer humiliation we as fans have had to suffer already. To the people in the board room a few more weeks might not be seen as that important in the grand scheme of things. But we've been at rock bottom, somehow finding new rock bottoms every week for almost a decade. If we don't at least stay chasing automatic promotion mny will lose interest and if they can't even go to the games soon lose the love

When does he think we are likely to re-enter the championship like?

Still under the delusion it will happen cause we are 'too big a club for this league' is he?

With Parkinson as manager and the owners sitting back we would be looking at relegation before promotion, the team is getting worse each season yet they still think we will get into the championship. And he has the audacity to imply we k ow nothing.
 
Certainly looks like Fpp won’t be leaving
Interesting if FPP's investment will still be there.
The charge document for the loan gives them a bit of a veto on future investment so they must have been involved in the discussions.
On one hand it would be nice for new owners to be so wealthy that they just satisfied FPP and paid them off
A clean break from the past and a clean brush going forward.

Not sure what to make yet of FPP still being involved.
As it stands their involvement is just a loan which wont give them a huge return even if we shoot up the leagues.
Hopefully its because they want to be part of a new vision for the club and see it as an opportunity
Would be ideal if they converted their loan into shares That would make for a very very wealthy set of backers.
 
A see the methven text messages have been leaked on twitter , doesn't make good reading really could do with a clean slate from these cowboys mind . Not sure the timing of these coming out now is good mind
It would be nice now for RR to come clean about who from the Club told them last year of the FPP takeover and there communications. These Chancers don't seem to care so why should we.
 
Apparently there are a lot of red trousered members of the MCC, those that wear in addition to red trousers, red and yellow blazers and ties, up in arms. The MCC, with no cricket crowds has lost a lot of money. It is selling membership of this to anyone who can cough up around £45,000. Pritti Patel? Ie nouveau rich who will change the culture of the club...

Exactly I mean Roker report did a podcast celebrating fpp's arrival it was as good as done , for cm and sd to turn round it was never a takeover and to proceed to further insult our intelligence because were northern.
Not sure why rr don't spill as it was them wms and als were made to look daft
 
Everyone is entitled to their opinion but you will need to realise on here @Magnus @Prehab26 @Smug in Boots and @Wheatsheaf are very well respected and the info they give us is very appreciated.
All 4 have been giving us updates throughout and to come on and suggest a takeover isnt happening will be found as disrespectful by a lot of people on here .
I moved across from RTG because of how negative it is and how the itks were personally attacked for genuine info they were sharing .
We are like one big HAPPY family across here, so if you insult our special ones then be prepared for the abuse that will come your way.

Well you call it respecting them, i call it you sucking them off so they throw you a few bits of information. Embarrassing behaviour from a grown man to be honest.

been saying that for over a year now mate.. RR need to come clean with what was said to them to act the way they did announcing a Takeover.. They have had to been told by someone high up in the Club.
