Colin.....its a fair point, but if our new lords and masters are that well endowed and dynamic, there is no way they would retain the services of the old guard.....

   Now, if its just some haggling going on and when the Board is reconstituted Diamond Mike and co are shown the door all well and good.

But what if ... the old board has to resign then a new board is voted in ... those crafty investors say "oh, things have changed now. You can still be ballboys (and a ballgirl if that exists) but we want to make dynamic changes to the board. Don't call us, we'll call you." That would be ironic.

Yeah...that occurred to me as well.

If that was the case then I would offer to let Jim Little take me up the arse.

I'm hoping that the majority of the current board will get the push within the next 12 months. I could see at least some logic in trying to maintain a little continuety for at the short term before easing them out once the likes of Little and Breveitt have a better handle on how the club works behgind the scenes.  I just hope that happens.

   I think we had our chance and blew it, by being too civilised.....we need to see how things pan out over the next 3 weeks, by which time the picture should be clearer.

Its a no brainer....if the new investors seek credibility from us long suffering fans, the old guard have to go full stop. Not least because we could still be whacked for missing the cva deadline and the football league wont look favourably on the club if the old senior management team remain involved.
They should all fuck off.

Bearing in mind though that we were told about how much footballing experience the new owners apparently had, I just find it a little strange how the only new face is a replacement for Willie Carson, who had no involvement in the footballing side at all.

He's giving a nod to how he exploded a number of months ago suggesting we should hire hitmen to solve the boardroom problems (well, maybe it wasn't that extreme).

if thats the case i will no longer be giving my money to them. i will go to away games but i am not giving diamandis another penny of my cash.

Yep.


How is going to games now giving diamandis cash?  How exactly is he going to take cash out when he's no longer in charge and his chums are not the majority shareholders?

I'm as pissed off as the next town fan that some of these clowns are being retained but a bit of logic wouldnt go amiss


logic!?! i will tell you about fucking logic. we the fans have been duped. You really think that none of my gate money goes into diamandis pocket? Jesus wept. This club fucking stinks. The sooner the fans wake up to this the better.
I call for direct action. But will the comatose people of swindon be bothered? No course they wont thats why its important that we lead the charge and highlight the wrongdoings of these shady wankers.

And yes i am on the trust board, however i am first and foremost a fan of swindon town and im not going to sit back anymore.
