Christ.  I just heard a United fan screeching that the Glazers had destroyed his club. 

Fuck me.  I wish we'd been that 'destroyed'

The owners have taken £2 billion out of the club, if that isn’t a reason to be pissed off and protest I don’t know what is

Was thinking last night and the local press and news outlets don't do fuck all to help really do they. You'd think they would be running stories all the time on this and really ramping up the pressure.

I have not seen much if anything about the 2 deadlines that have passed

but will still get the press

It would but probably for wrong reasons.
"Stupid fans protest at wrong ground"
"Fans inspired by MUST fail to get a game called off 150 miles away"

The moment has gone.  The pressure is mounting financially so has to be resolved soon.

Investigative journalism is dead at this level IMO. Adver is on its knees financially/resource wise and need to be fed stories these days.

BBC Wilts wither don't want to rock the apple cart, or haven't got the expertise any more. Or both.

That said, not sure if the FA "insiders" will speak to them anyway. Also don't know if Clem is approachable right now given he has to go back to courts soon.

Ultimately you are right, they (the media) are no help.

I suspect it's more a case of apathy than compliance.

Thing is that Sport Joe story was actually pretty good, considering how much 'journalism' these days is just nicking stories off other sites and rehashing it no idea why the Adver at least haven't done something similar.

But Hodgetts is a fan isn't he? You'd think he'd try and ask some questions on Able, finances, etc.

That said, it may be the club aren't even talking to him.

I did miss the latest phone in to be fair - was listening to the OSC/Trust on FB instead

I've never considered Hodgetts to be an investigative reporter. More just a bloke with a mic that reads stuff out.

He could ask questions, but to whom?

I don't recall him ever doing anything investigative, ever.

Both fair enough I guess.

Bit of a sad state of affairs, I guess the Trust (and OSC to a point) are the only ones left that will at least try to do some digging. Unless it blows up enough for the nationals to take another look.
