    Stewart Donald said in a podcast that they had received an offer for the naming rights of the Stadium, but he turned it down because naming rights in the Championship would attract a much higher revenue. It sounds like someone spinning information to undermine the owner.

    I’m not saying it is GA, I wouldn’t know, I just made an educated guess that that is who people are referring to.

    Yep, and that absolutely makes sense. They've said they aren't desperate for revenue in this league (might change if we're still here next season with no parachute payment but for now I can believe that we're fine). That being the case why would they accept naming rights which would be potentially divisive for the fan base, would bring in comparative buttons and leave us tied in for years when we expect to be in a higher league and a better position to negotiate before long.

    Someone, or some people, are deliberately stirring ****, maybe for attention, maybe because they have some kind of agenda, but it's ****ing pathetic

    50p more than the gobshites would have you believe Stu has then....

    I can actually see this starting to galvanise people behind the owners, so if it is the Campbell/Armstrong lot they are gonna **** themselves.

    I should have known this was coming, after all being positive about tomorrow's game and the positive post today about investment was bound to bring it out

    I'm going to go ahead an not believe a word of that - If I was writing a piece to systematically attack Stewart Donald, that is pretty much what I'd write

    Seems that whenever there are some positive rumours coming out about the investment, someone’s trying to change the attention back to sd

    At Wembley TD shouted up at me using my name and waved. Only met him once very briefly too.

    What winds me up, is there is no though as to the consequences.

    The fact 2 threads over the the road are still there when someones actions are blatently being called into question staggers me.

    Is website traffic that important

    I don't think it's really worth getting wound up over tbh. I don't think anyone with half a brain would think...

    Oh jesus, HALF A BRAIN? That rules out almost all of pure football!

    Trouble is, these things seem to stick and it isn't right TD is being accused like this

    Something is very very wrong at the minute. It's like someone or some group are actively trying to destroy the club.
