Why the protest has to be aimed @ PR......

Tue Mar 02, 2010 1:42 pm

If the chants ring out "sack the board" they will all close ranks, Guy,Hall etc won't give a stuff what we think about their actions, the riddler on the other hand will take it very personaly if it's head on the plate the fans clearly want.

Malaysians allegedly still want PR removed before they invest further, it has to be the "Ridsdale out" on Saturday the board will see the pressure mounting, PR will see its his head on a plate the fans want, something has to give!!!.

Ridsdale out!! Ridsdale out!! Ridsdale out!! Ridsdale out!! Ridsdale out!! Ridsdale out!! Ridsdale out!! Ridsdale out!!

The only single, tiny little doubt in my mind about this whole thing is we want PR out. That's pretty much the bottom line of all this. But, cast your mind back a few years and all the clubs who want their chairmen removed and how long it took them, years in some cases. I'm thinking Doug Ellis and Peter Swailes. I just hope that our saga doesn't drag on as long as those two did and we can get a swift conclusion

Ridsdale hasn't put a penny in our club, atleast Ellis,Swailes had invested,Paul Guy can remove PR with the likes of Borley,SH backing him, that's if they can see the pressure mounting.

OR shall we all just sit back & do fook all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Why do you believe that the Malaysians want Ridsdale out? Annis has said so, on the information from Borley, but has Borleys actions backed his thoughts? No they haven't, so I really don't see that there is any truth in the rumour. As stated many times, if the board wanted Ridsdale removed, they could do so quite easily. As they haven't then, they are obviously backing his chairmanship. The board are just as if not more guilty than Ridsdale, he is just an employee and mouthpiece. The parasitic board must be removed, either through new owners or administration. I fear that the latter will become a reality.

Freddie, in two posts you have ably demonstrated why many are not comfortable with the protest.

Ridsdale is the spokesperson for the board; The board, unlike the fans, are united in their approach to the current problems.
Are there really Malaysian investors? Would you invest at this time?
"Ridsdale out, Ridsdale out", not while the board is united.

Fair enough with the protest, but realistic expectations should be set. I doubt anything will happen while the clubs debts are so high. The club is trying to put on a steady, considered and calm approach to mantain confidence with its creditors. Could the protest damage this confidence and thus encourage further creditors to seek further winding up orders etc. Potential investors may also be discouraged.

I genuinely have no answers but we're so far down the slippery slope I fear some serious casualties are not far away!
