Again, you are seeking to shift the argument, having failed so spectacularly to gain any traction with your original one.
Your "soft option" comment was quite clearly referring to the recent going into administration. Not what happened 18 months ago.
I repeat - again - anyone buying a club that has had £1.3m Sky money confiscated - and who was totally uninvolved and totally blameless in the stupidity that led up to the problem - is hardly "taking the soft option".
At least, unlike so many others from over your way, you are making an effort to support your arguments. But, on this one at least, I really think your argument is unsupportable.
I'm not seeking to do anything of the sort.
I said you had chosen the soft option and that is a fact.
You seem to think that because SL saw fit to hit you with a penalty this is in some way you taking the tough option - it isn't.
You didn't choose, it was issued, you had no part in the decision making.
This (if it's about spin) is about your spin.
This was issued because SL chairmen saw through the sham.
Why else would it have been given?
Would you have chosen it if hadn't been handed out?
Of course not, I'm not looking at making this a personal attack on Bulls apologists as some have, I remember how helpful you were in suggesting help towards the trust before it got off the ground.
But it's not hard to look through all this and see a few advocates of the bulls party line.
Anything not in tow gets shot down, even from within your own support.
I posted a few days back that carvel was a test case and that others will follow, I was mocked.
Sammut has followed, and as I pointed out others will follow him.
The board is on chaos, layers want out, and people like you say "there is nothing to see here" maybe you're prolonging your own death...who knows? To be honest I've got past caring
Blind optimism is a common trait within sports supporters, but it is exactly that in many cases...blind.
I wish you no ill, I'll be narked if we suffer because of what I see as favouritism of course I will, but please don't try spinning your situation to make others seem stupid because it doesn't wash.
It didn't with the SL chairmen, it doesn't with me, I can't speak for the "RL family".
