There you go again, diminishing the opinion of others and naming them “the problem”
In some cases it’s not necessarily “just because you don’t like him” though, maybe Carter has materially cost them.
In a case such as that it would stick in you craw to hear everyone heaping praise on him, wouldn’t it?

My analogy is
If you got robbed by someone and knew it was them, I’m sure you’d be quite vocal if all you heard from others was how honest the robber was!

So maybe people should stop shoving how virtuous the old owner was down everyone’s throats then vilifying those who won’t have it!

Right, time to move on!

Errm no.
Lots of ifs there.

But if someone had robbed me, I would accuse them of robbing me, and be able to back it up, rather than create stories about other things he's done to turn people's opinion.
THAT is the problem.

And I think you have it the other way round. The only time anyone says "he saved our club" is after someone has had yet another dig at him.

And I'm certain Minards hasn't done anything that could be in the category of your analogy but it doesn't stop people making stuff up just because he sat next to Carter.

Expect this will be a popular one for the Member Shareholders.

"Good afternoon all, please note the next Shareholders meeting is Wednesday 04th October at 7pm in the Rollin Shack.

John would like to introduce Matt Ellis to the members & a discussion with him will follow."

I’m very interested to see how things progress once this takeover is hopefully sorted.

The coaching team and recruitment/salary manager and set up will obviously be the first to be sorted.

There is actually some reasonable pick ups looking at the out of contract superleague list who could do a good job for us in the championship so I’m looking forward to seeing who we recruit.

Would like to retain a couple of those out of contract from this year. Hopefully some news back end of this week.

There is a Shareholder meeting next Wednesday where John will be introducing Matthew Ellis.
Will be good to hear what he has to say.

What a sad, inaccurate comment.
But, looking on the bright side you have new targets now to get the knife into-bet you can’t wait!
