ANNIS - TELL US.....
Thu Jan 28, 2010 10:13 pm
What's your brief summary of:
-TODAY'S EVENTS (31 years in and even I was flabbergasted by this afternoon's turn of events )
- PETER RIDSDALE (I've seen the press conference and must admit I actually hid behind the sofa to hide from the disgusting display of absolute and utter arrogance by you know who....)
- SAM HAMMAM (surely there's more than meets the eye there?)
- STEVE BORLEY (reading between the lines there has to be a reason he sat on his hands today?)
- JASON 'PSYCHO' PERRY (caught you on 882 at 7:50 this am. My old mate Pezza is a legend isn't he? - Pity he didn't share all his personal views on the radio eh?)
Finally, I PRAY WE GET WHAT WE DESERVE AND THAT PR GETS TRULY WHAT HE DESERVES TOO............

You forgot me at 7.50 am
I really believed PR was going and I was also told he was by certain people within the club, but at the last moment something happened and I dont know what ????

There's no point in speculating on anything at the moment. I'll keep posting this in a bid to bring some calm
I've just watched the press conference online.
My initial reaction is that I cannot believe the arrogance of the man. His response to Steve Tuckers straightforward questions was unbelievable. "I'm not going to get into the intricacies of how you pay back debt" as if methods of debt repayment are somehow beyond the comprehension of intelligent professionals.
Staggering.
Much of it was just flannel and a PR offensive to take the heat off. BUT and here is the BUT.
What is our viable alternative? Steve Borley has stated he doesn't want the job, because as Ridsdale rightly pointed out you cannot win and doubtless, Steve having been in that position before does not want to go there again and who can blame him? It's a thankless task. If I won £150m on the Euro lottery and bought the club I would at some point end up skint and be hounded out of town as some sort of a villain. Actually it would probably be before I went skint since the impossible task of keeping everyone happy in a big cup draw away from home can scientifically never be achieved.....
Steve Borley is right, we have to stick together, in a strange sort of way I am pleased that the boardroom appear to be united. If they were divided then the club would be on really shaky ground. At least with a unified board we stand a chance of coming out the other side in one piece. There is too much money invested by the likes of Paul Guy and Steve Borley for them to stand back and watch us go to the wall.
We have to move on from feeling fleeced, and quickly. Would we have bought tickets if they'd come out and said, we're skint, can you give us some cash now instead of next year? Probably most would have.
What is clear to me now is that this is the last chance saloon for Ridsdale. IF the revenue are not paid off and investors are not brought in then we can vent. Getting all shouty about things on Saturday is not going to solve anything, it is just going to inflame the situation and not contribute anything positive.
I would suggest some deep breaths. Lets focus on backing the team and manager however much we dislike what is going on at the moment. If we end up going up this year then all this is going to be a distant memory. If HMRC are not settled as promised THEN we will have cause to rant and rave because he will have proved that everything being said about him now is true.
It takes a man to rise above his aggressor and maintain dignity. And we need to show now that we are level headed individuals however raw we are feeling. Give them a final chance, they may be right. If the Malasians are still around and they can see a fan base united behind a club in times of adversity then that can only be a good message surely?
Divided we will fall. People always do. Those who unite will always pull through. Focus on the team, enjoy the game, lets dish out another 6-0 hammering on Saturday.

Not at all mate see my wording above, I caught you giving it to them large
I thought you were a great double act with the legend from Bedwas, despite the random female presenter not having a Scooby Doo about anything 
What's going to happen in the next two weeks then????????????????
