What an unmitigated disaster. I am embarrassed and sick to the pit of my stomach after reading the statement. Bagpuss, you are absolutely correct in your surmise (about Mr W concocting a story about there being interested "parties" for his shares only in trying to generate money into his pocket. How sickening). That sham, and more has now come to light, as has the fact that the club has been negligent (putting it mildly) with its obligations. I am also really quite shocked at the tone of the statement. Someone somewhere has to wake up and smell the coffee. Sorry guys, but I just dont know how to react other than to share the deep regret of all true fans.

One thing, however, is for sure. This club will not go down. Not whilst we are around. The club is bigger than any one individual, and its time for the board to act in the interests of the club, and not the interests of a Chairman who has been found out like the emperor with no clothes on. How on earth can we owe the taxman £300,000 and be taken to court. What other debts are there ? Lets have a full disclosure and lets then get people to subscribe to a new share issue and save the situation. I am ready to lead the way with at least £250,000. And you can quote me on that.

A very sad and sorry Ilyas Khan

Thanks for being the first person from the club to speak up Ilyas - even though there have been some on this messageboard already

(If somebody from the club has posted then I am sorry for not knowing your identity

) - And we must thank you once again for your generosity. I just hope that the club finally sits up and listens

Top man! I'll subscribe (although it will be a little under £250,000!).

Doug · 29-05-2009, 15:59

I'm on my knees as it is, my business is just getting by. But I'll buy £500 worth when and if the club bites, followed by more when times get easier....

VALAIRIAN · 29-05-2009, 16:06

Put me down for a few quid

I'll work out how much nearer the time, when the club decides to ask the fans for some assistance

ON STANLEY ON

I must admit,that although I am out of work untill September (bloody leg!),if a share issue were to materialise,I would be open to buying some...........maybe not as many as Doug,but certainly as many as I could reasonably afford. Now is the time for the board to stand up to Eric and tell Him 'no more,we have to talk now'............Its gonna take some bollocks,but surely someone there has a pair?

To be brutally honest,I cant think of anyone,with the exception of Ilyas,in the current regime who would be prepared to stand up and put thier head on the preverbial chopping board! Who are you thinking of Valarian?

Wynonie Harris · 29-05-2009, 19:33

Maybe he's thinking of Coley!
