This guy has me on strings. I actually get angry reading his tweets.

He will slag off Russell, Hall, Gunning, Holloway. The players. The staff behind the scenes. Everybody

But he won't say one bad thing about Clem.

How can he not comprehend, that even if all these people are indeed incompetent, they were employed by the man at the top.

Because he's a fucking moron.

I'd have a lot more respect for them if they actually offered any kind of explanations to their response.

Weyman just laugh emoji'd anything negative.

Clarke just gives the whole "this is fine", "this is normal" - but no explanation as to why. Its just plain weird, and if Sutton (rest his soul) were still here with us I'd be pointing a Kingston Robin size finger at him!

That Clarke in particular goes quiet as soon as he gets in to any sort of debate or asked any sort of reasonable question and then just pops up again elsewhere spewing the same crap.

Exactly I can see no reason why he would walk, his cash is tied up in the club (one way or another) and the only way he gets that out is by way of a sale (of an asset that gets ever more valueless as each days passes unless something radical changes on the pitch) otherwise its just been pissed up the wall.

Exactly this, he would never just walk away from potential incomings. That would be ridiculous and make no business sense, or common sense whatever

What makes me laugh/cry about the morfuni fan club is that a lot of the same people are here who were here when Power was in charge.

I must admit I had my questions on this initially, until I saw who was actually behind it and realized that they are genuine fans rather than just fans that want publicity (I can think of a couple).

Remember there will be fans that want to join in protests but cant due to having children with them or are elderly, disabled etc, but I suppose that orange will cover that.

I do feel the only way the only way to get that sea of orange as per the Power days is to be giving them away - but to do that the group would either need it sponsored or for a wealthy fan / group etc to be willing to purchase them, you wont get enough people willing to part with £10 for a hat and those that do will probably be spread out, and there is only so many that can be captured on social media, although a leaflet drop at future games will ramp things up as well I expect.

If Clem walks - and takes the other parasites with him - I’d expect the club would function just fine financially without the leeches sucking money out of it.

My question: the guys involved say they were involved with the trust when it ousted power for Morfuni. Clearly Morfuni hadn’t been any better, in fact possibly worse than power. What gives them the confidence that this time around the end result will be better?

I agree about the hats. within a minute of searching I can find a supplier for £2.20 for a orange hat. I think a crowd fund should happen ASAP to get these hats given out for FREE or even £1 nominal fee.
I would throw £50 in just to know that 25 hats within the crowd came from me for the cause.

The Q&A pod mentioned ordering 300 hats, I'm not sure if that was a throwaway line.

It might function fine, but would it function sufficiently fine to the acceptance of the fan base. Was reading something the other day about Portsmouth who basically ended up in fan ownership after a trail of shitty owners and what became rapidly clear is that under fan ownership it could just about tick over as a business but until the guy from Disney came in with cash behind him it was at best treading water.

Albeit treading water sounds like fucking heaven compared to where we are now...

It might not, but can’t be much worse than what we have, the worst team in the entire football league.
And before you say there are two teams below us, we’ve lost at home to both of them.
And yes non league would be worse, but that’s where we are heading under the Aussie plumber & his cronies

I honestly don't remember why orange was considered significant last time round and why it remains relevant now (apart from obviously a fair few having orange hats left over from last time!)

I struggle to see how it could be worse.

Partially as a Dundee United colour having Paul Sturrock as manager I think, but there were other reasons it was settled on, I'm sure.

My fear is that anyone who buys the place off Morfuni is going to be a shitty chancer who doesn't do due diligence (as nobody in their right mind would pay any sort of cash without seeing the books) so will it be a Jed plus the bloke with silly hair sort of 'deal' replacing one dubious group lacking a pot to piss in with another one?
