Can I just say a heartfelt thanks to everyone that was there tonight.

An absolute demonstration of articulate reasoning and question asking,

I was proud of you.

Thank you once again !

What happened??

Some serious questions were asked by us of Mr B

And?

whats his favourite cheese??

Stilton of course

No leaving out the Club shop door then?

oh dear god. cant have a stilton lover running the club.
BOWDEN OUT

Nope

fair play to MikeB

he came out and took it on the chin

I respect him for that

takes a big man

So what was asked and what were the answers?

All the main questions were asked and we got a lot of

wait till wednesday

it was stated that protests are organised and things will ramp up from here, which he kind off accepted

How many of you were there Fred?
Did you protest outside the ground with songs etc?

about 10

no songs, just asked for MrB to come down, which to his credit he did

and then we asked a load of questions, the answers to which I asked him to confirm in writing.

it was very articulate, although we did say that the protests will develop form this date forward

I did here the Power chant during the game though :)
Which then made its way to The Town End

oh god


Ace

Are you paying for the damage you caused the door then ;)
Otherwise the club will have to use the CVA money to pay for the broken door instead.  :D

what is happening on weds fred?

Fans Forum I believe?

Yes

ah I see, can't make that.

What did you get out of him fred?

he said that he had attended numerous meetings with community and resident groups and the council.

I gave him my personal e mail address and asked him to confirm dates times attendees of said meetings in writing.

He said he was happy to do that

We will see wont we

I hope he proves me wrong but the truth is he will try and butter u up

Was at the game Fred, but missed you in the cgh cos i was running late!
Went to get my ticket and asked to be near the directors box/executive area, but ended up 3 blocks away. Then was videoed whilst inside the conscourse at half time getting a burger. I asked the cunt why i was being filmed, and he just walked off! Bizzarre!!!
If id known about the stuff afterwards i would have been there.
Next Time eh!

Well Done fellas.
 :thumbs:

So they're filming everybody who doesn't agree with them?

How sensible.

They'll have the SS going round in dark jackets and bundling people into dark rooms next.

you heard that?  :shock: there must have been about 15 of us maximum doing that one  :D

   Would that be in the same way that Marlon Brando buttered up Maria Schneider in Last Tango In Paris?

Hope not :soapy tit wank:

What!?!

No one  nailed him with the argument winning  "We pay your wages"!!?

Pfft!

We asked things such as will the CVA payment be made, 'which one' he responded which is worrying to say the least.

Then I asked him at 5.40pm ish will more tickets be made available on wedsnesday and he said 'I didnt arrange it'.  He then emailed me 30 minutes later saying soory (yeap) the origional plan was the winners so we cannot make more available.

Interesting he didn't know this 30 minutes before.

If he's talking about more than one CVA then that says to me that they've rearranged it (i.e. the last CVA wasn't paid, but they've renegotiated it, maybe to be annunced in triumph at the fans forum - even though thats essentially the same CVA)- or, that he's getting muddled and referring to different payments within the same CVA - in that July's wasn't paid and they've got one due in the summer.

Either way, it's pretty scary to have a director who's less informed on the general running of the club than run-of-the-mill, everyday fans.

is he a director? i thought he was 'just' a consultant.

also, what's happened to the other one, boyd butler i think his name was?

I'd assume from the original comment that he meant "Which CVA payment?" rather than "Which CVA?", but remember we did have a prior CVA which collapsed and then lead pretty much straight into the current one.

I think yesterday proved that protestors can be well reasoned and not just go into mindless chanting of 'sack the board' etc etc.

The security bloke trying to keep us in check was hilarious though

John was funny as fuck, especially when he tried to start answering questions on behalf of Mike B

fuck all that,i wanna know what the assault of gazza was like?

what assault?

is that something to do with there being messages on here that won't open?

there was a thread started by gazza but its gone.
i dont know what happend so its unfair of me to say

you can tell me arriba...

Gazza was not assaulted.

People will bear witness to that

I think its best if Gary himself responds to this

He Joint Chairman and it's a paid permanent position.

Boyd Butler was doing Marketing Consultancy work.

remember last week when we asked to many questions?
not for me to say on gazzas grumbles

 :oops:

sorry

no worries fred, im just being nosey!

viva la resistance.

Thanks Hagar

I doubt they have anything substantially triumphant to announce, if they did I would expect them to be bending over backwards to have the press and radio there.

All I'll say is, I took something that happened at the back of the Arkells Stand the wrong way, blew my top sent some messages to Fred after the game expressing how upset I was as I have a short fuse, which I regret, he got annoyed at me for sending them (at first I thought it was a joke like him calling me fat boy etc but then soon found out it wasn't) etc and we fell out.

Emotions are running high at this time and Fred knows I have a lot of time for him and yes in my moment of rage I admit I have fucked things up. Can't change that.

I hope I'm right in saying we both just want to get on with things.

There are more pressing matters like the CVA and everything to worry about.

I will try and talk to Fred in private at some stage to try and iron out things.

Thats the last that's being said about it from myside if Fred wishes to reply thats fine but I said to delete my posts last night as it wasn't helping.

 I wondered what had happened to that classic.....I thought you'd been banned.

Nope I asked Yeovil to delte them.

You are a self publiscing drama queen.

Best send this statement off to the press asap, because it is important.

As far as I am concerned, Gazza has apologised, and I agree that feelings are running sky high.

From my perspective, the case is closed.

Lets all move on

   Just a thought Fred......might it be more productive if a bit less emotion and a bit more reason were applied to the present situation?

no, lets arrange a boxing match....all money made from ticket sales going towards the fans consortium or the board depending on who wins.

Andy 'Terrorising' Tuck Vs Gary 'Stallion' Stanley


*start whistling Rocky Music*

I could not agree more Reg

That's why I wanted our little chat with MikeB to be structured and respectful.

And that is exactly the way it was conducted.

I just did not appreciate being sent abusive text messages in the middle of a family meal.

In my view if you conduct these things with decorum then that commands respect and hopefully a listening ear

I think it would be more like

my money's on sumo gazza then.

it was meant to represent I am fat where as Fred is in shape and I'd have no chance.

nope I disagree. He's about 50 and his vision is poor. I don't see a rocky style effort from fred. You could take him Gary.

cunt

 :D

Yes could take him for a beer and hope he just sinks his fist and foot into my gut instead of the side of my head.

Rubbish gazza. Stand up for your self lad.

Fred would have Paul D as his manager and Gaz would have Ben Lambert. The only thing is Paul D would turn on Fred because he obviously loves Gazza more.

Some classic ref distraction tactics and a metal chair WWF stylee and Fred would be out for the count.

I think it would be more "hell in a cell" with this happening to me...

Anybody want to sponser this fight? We need a venue too. After the trust meeting would be good.

I ain't thinking Queensberry rules but maybe say leave the bats and blades at home.

stop groveling gazza, its making me cringe

Back to the topic in hand...

There was about a dozen of us outside the Arkells and Bowden came down - with security guards - to talk to us. The usual questions were asked, the usual answers were given - there was certainly nothing particularly interesting or worth mentioning.

Importantly we put across our points in a well-reasoned and articulate - though also passionate - manner whilst also making a clear signal of our intent. In my opinion, the words exchanged were less relevant than our actions. The more visible the protest is, regardless of numbers, the more pressure will be applied.

For a totally spontaneous demonstration it was fairly successful.

I hope next saturday there will be alot of chanting from load of people, also hopefully there will be banners and a big demo behind the arkells, big pressure needs to be put on them!!!

Yes, from the The Nationwide down towards the Town End

There might have been only 15 started it but there was a lot more than that by the time it spread across the three stands!

Nah, more

And Gazza would win when Andy was completely floored by the sudden revelation that Gazza's got an "ology".
