People moaned that money wasn't made available for ALF, people moaned when a pay day loan company offered us money in sponsorship, wonder how much moaning there would have been if ED died while still owner and his next of kin decided to call in the entire debt they inherited.

 

Seems to me this is a case of a man in his elder years putting his affairs in order.

 

I guess we all believe what we want to believe

Forget the moaning, it's what fans do - what's this forum about ? - it's the fact that those who were handsomely paid to manage the finances have been comatose at the wheel and now can't be seen for dust. Why doesn't Eddie Davies issue some sort of statement saying what his intentions are and how he feels about his legacy being a once proud club reduced to this?

What it's not about is providing a soap box for folk who do nothing but moan. I'm not wasting my time and energy so folk can just moan unconstructive shite, sorry. Call it a WW Steering Group.

They knew the well was drying up when ED said he was pulling out. They did fuck all about it and had two years notice so lets's have it reet, 

 

How do you know they've done fuck all? Hasn't Gartside spent god knows how long trying to find a buyer? Isn't that common knowledge?

 

Some folk seem to think assorted Sheikhs, Oligarchs and U.S Tycoons would be banging the door down to buy us, clearly that is not the case.

 

Why was Lennon allowed to take on all those contracts in the summer? Perhaps a deal was close but fell through? We may never know.

 

There have been definite failings in financial governance but we don't know the full picture and we probably never will.

Your one of the biggest moaners on here and that's saying something coming from me.

Welcome to administration. We got £20K from Brizzle for Bolasie when on our knees.

Any sell on?

 

Or just £20K and a good rogering?

 

Edit: sorry, just seen you sold to Brizzle and not Palace. I bet Brizzle have a sell on clause.....

Ok they haven't achieved much though have they? Gartside was described by Dougie as being the most 'hands off' chairman he'd known i.e. never there. Still trousered £400k a year for long enough though.

You really believe a deal was close? Only close until whoever had a look at the books perhaps. Lennon was allowed to take on those contracts because the club is a shambles with no plan. We may never know for sure but let's go off what has actually happened rather that what we want to happen.

The running of the club is a shambles because we are were we are!

If the club was run well we wouldn't be in this fucking mess we are in now! Absolute fact

People are paid to do a job and gartside and Co have done a terrible job along with coyle freedman and lennon
