Received correspondence from Sir Rodney saying how he is committed to getting the stadium built but has come up against various ongoing problems. His Trust application is now with the Charity Commission awaiting approval. The membership of the Trust are all to quote "highly reputable figures"

As highly reputable as him?? Or just more people fancying a slice of the pie.

I would put Sir Rodney in same category as Colin Mackie and Councillor Peter Box and other well known conmen

I would put him in a concrete overcoat but that's probably just a personal choice!

Can I mix the concrete ?

He is just an overweight and very old sad individual. Make as much stress as you can for him, make life as difficult as possible. The greedy slob will either realise he is too old and frail for the fight or nature will take it course and he will no longer be the problem.

What the hell has overweight got to do with anyone's character.

Quite a lot in these circumstances. Last time I saw him he did not look a fit individual and he is carrying a lot of excess weight. The guy is now 74yrs old. He is supposed to be a very wealthy man, so why is he willing to go through all the grief that he could be bringing on himself. He needs to ask himself 'Do I really need this at my time of life, or should I just let it go and move on'

Any doctor will tell you, being old, overweight and having a stressful life is very risky for your health,

I wish the guy would take a step back, take stock and ask himself is all this going to be worth it.

Even money that Ted Richardson is one of Sir Rodney of Bentsville Trust members

I said exactly the same a few weeks since. Where's the poster "Harrogate" when you need him?

Are you sure you used the word because you are so concerned about his health? I would suggest , in your anger and frustration, it was used in a derogatory sense. Totally unnecessary to bring in anyone's physical appearance .No way am I defending Walker, just generally object to the use of a person's physical appearance when making reference to their character.
