I'm not sure Anthony Hall knows.... |

Yeah i understand what he means. But its a stupid thing to say honestly, i don't buy it in the slightest. I'm sure it happens (it shouldn't), but its not going to solve the problems. Its like the government worrying about benefits fraud when way more is lost to tax avoidance, but its easy to point fingers at certain people.
If this is the blokes plan to balance the books then he is a complete cretin.
Oh I agree, I think it's pretty shite indication we're trying to scape together an extra £500-1000 a match (at a guess) |

I don't think he believes that it will balance the books but it wouldn't hurt. |

Wake me up when Clem and his merry men leave please. What a sad state of affairs.

I don't feel any more informed after that session:
- There are more questions for me around our expenditure
- The trust access to the books
- I don't feel particularly like Anthony has his finger on the pulse of the club, if he's doing the budgets but doesn't know what the current number is
I think it's probably best if Anthony Hall communicates with the media in writing in the future. He did himself no favours tonight

All I can say to that is car crash.
He was fucking seething at the start wasn’t he? Realised pretty quick how he was coming across and all of sudden started smiling on the occasion. Another successful public appearance from the STFC regime.

Missed that start.
The bloke is CEO in name only, he aint got a clue... someone else must be calling the shots day-to-day?

Not read back but he seemed to suggest season ticket holders are getting 9 free games - which he wants to in his words ‘stamp down on’ does that mean season ticket prices are going up. I also resent the language - I’ve paid good money for a season ticket and it wasn’t free! Match day prices are unaffordable for anyone who wants to go regularly. I’ve worked in construction and been in meetings with people like him - he’s not a football CEO.

Just what are the supposed duties of a CEO?

Aggression is their way. Basic, unprofessional wannabes. |

Also surely one of the most important things he could do is facilitate the trust seeing the books - but he hasn’t. He’s delegated it to Annabelle de Costa or whatever her name is , who has been liaising with the trust via email. FFS

I’m not sure Anthony has an stfc email address - the one from his old role no longer works - I just get a bounce back.

Sounds like it was a total shocker of an interview. Sadly I feel more deflated now about the ownership than ever before.

No wonder so many potential signings fizzled out in the summer. Saw the amateurs running the place and legged it.
