Piemonte, I think that (your view) is fair enough though, not that you need anyone telling you that. You can't believe everything on the internet. Time will reveal the truth I guess.
Have to agee with spensor on Power being the most important loss whatever the reason behind his leaving. The money thing is massive, but as pointed out his proposed day to say l running of the club was a huge thing too - we were a rudderless ship really, Devlin aside.
Dazzza, had the same thought about Puffitt. I'm sure he acted 100% correctly in what he thought was right for the club at the time, just that the fans place on the board was not his to offer. Always came accross as genuine and a ture fan too. Where is he now?

well thats the first ive heard of this daft rumour! what daft rumour? Wise quitting after the Wycombe game Gotcha, sorry my head's full of stale beer and Tequila. Has anyone a link to the League papers site, if they have one? Surprised none of the other football sites have picked up on it if it’s headline news. I even had a look in Tescos earlier for a copy but it’s like bloody gold dust trying to get hold of a copy. |

Just out of curiosity does anyone know if Cliff Puffet is still involved with the club? He did initially head the current consortium and said at the time he wouldn’t be taking a place on the board but he hasn’t been herd of in a long time. I may be wrong but wasn’t he a member of the Trust at one point, his intentions always seemed fairly good, it would be interesting to see what he makes of it all. Cliff is still involved on the edges of the club as it were (ie holds no formal title but is one of the "great and the good"). For a while he fell out with the current regime, but now seems to have made up with them. And yes he is a Trust member (with apologies to Cliff if he feels I'm breaking confidences on that, but he's always been pretty open and public about being a member of the Trust). FWIW, personally I'd say his intentions are good as you say - like the Wills family themselves, very much has the best interests of the club at heart. |

These rumours and all this speculation may or may not be true. People have put forward very good and at times convincing points which would seem to suggest that Power was forced out and that Wise will go soon.
However. I have not seen ONE piece of factual evidence to porve or disprove what has been said, and based on that I think it is far too early to start protesting and rioting.
Can we not just go to Wycombe, support the team and the manager, hope for a win, chant Dennis Wise's Barmy Army for a LOOOOOONNNNG time and just hope for the best.
IF Wise then leaves on Wednesday, and IF Devlin is forced out, I will be more than happy to complain about, abuse, and protest against the club. Until then I can't help thinking this is getting out of hand

One request - can people stop the personal abuse? Things are bad enough without people picking fights.
As of this exact moment there are few concrete facts, but people have come to conclusions based on the things we know so far, i.e.
Power leaving due to ill health but wants his money back - why unless he was pushed?
Linda Birrell being sacked for "cost cutting"; when she's probably on less per year than Ince per month. Not to mention the fact Wise offered to pay or at least contribute to her wages, such is the esteem he regarded her with.
Bob Holt effectively accusing Devlin - in public - of brokering the ince deal without the board's consent, thus taking the club into a £700,000 overspend - why would he do that if all was fine?
This is going to be an eventful week off the pitch, Wednesday will be a reaction to the events of the next two days and we should have a clearer picture of what we – as fans – can do for the good of this club.
