I imagine that a few of us are reading back our posts in light of Shurm’s meeting today; I know I am and I feel a little sheepish when I look back at the catalyst for some of my outbursts. I don’t know Shurm personally although we have had discussions in the past and from those I have a healthy respect for the lad.

I think it rather unfair for people to apply pressure to Shurm i.e. accybabs posts. This Lad challenged Mr. O’Neil to a face to face meeting and he responded to that request, Shurm as give us his personal feelings on the meeting which appears to have had a reassuring effect on him. I would suggest rather than bleed off the positive aspects of his post we look for positives ourselves and if we have any more searching question we perhaps put them to the club directly.

It’s been said time and time again; the best outlook can only be achieved by the two sides working together without demands. Sort the problem first and then discuss an appropriate level of representation by the ASSF on the Board.
