    Just rumours that Davison has left. Unconfirmed rumours I should mention. If he has gone though it's either great news for investment, or really bad news and we're cost cutting!

    Yeah me too. When I was told about football league receiving the heads of terms for the sale I was mid-argument with a Leicester supporting mate and banged on about how we could buy them as our feeder club.

    Might have got a bit carried away :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    It’s definitely either the result of external insistence, indiscipline or another opportunity. The latter will come out if he joins another club or organisation quickly, the first two we’ll probably never know. I remember going to boro, the year that big Brazilian (?) centre forward they had scored against us after about 1 second, and I’m sure Davison travelled with us on the bus, with Samson’s head on his lap, seemed like a canny lad, even drank one of our cans, would never have thought he would’ve become our commercial director mind.

    Wont be latter- sounds like part of the new hierarchy - the unfortunate part for Donald is he now has to let go the people he hired - thats business

    I suspect he will be on a very long gardening leave period

    That's even if he has gone, nothing is confirmed yet

    He was our Managing Director! Lots of people will be disappointed he's going, but hopefully its for a monumental reason. He doesn't have anything else lined up though.

    I'll take your word for it mate. Have never bothered with RTG and by the sound of things, I made the right choice in staying away from the toxic atmosphere that the regulars are reporting.

    After all the negativity of the last few weeks, it's good to see the green shoots of positivity returning. A good result tomorrow will go a long way in lifting the mood of the fans.
