You miss the point, as snowie says he hasn’t fallen out with anyone it’s just fan fatigue.

Don’t use this to pints score, three directors and 4000 fans are not always going to see eye to eye, there will always be fall outs.

I know big al and his fallout was a shame but he’s moved on. I also imagine 6 years on MC would have handled things differently but we all learn.

The present is all that matters for now.

I don’t miss the point at all, I get where he was coming from, regarding volunteering, and that’s why I brought up Al and Broughie, and I get what you’re doing, but nobody is point scoring.

I think regarding Al, your getting mixed up with big Al, who used to post on here. Two entirely different people.

Out of curiosity, how is Big Al these days? Does he stil watch Wakefield?

I spoke with him earlier, he no longer watches them, and has no intention to either, following the falling out he had with the club

It's impossible to fall out with "the club". Probably more accurate to say individuals. If I was in that position I would prefer to be like one or two on here, carry on watching the team but simultaneously hating said individual's guts.

Born a Trinity fan die a Trinity fan.

Quite possibly, but in all honesty, I don’t know what kicked off, and I don’t tend to get involved in other people’s disputes.

I don’t think he’s the first, or won’t be the last one, if so, to fall out with someone at the club.

What is the target again?

22 people have paid which is one more than I expected.

Yes we have, I think it may be about £50 under the amount but the club was always happy to make up any shortfall.

So it’s a goer, no idea what the flyer will be like and living where I do I won’t be getting one so just post on here if you get one I’d love to see how it looks.

Yet you claim to know him, interesting.

Well I know him though it’s been quite a while since we have communicated.

He didn’t fall out with the Trinity, he objected to something imposed by the management and it got out of control. It was poorly handled by the directors at the time imho and I suspect it might of been handled differently today. That is just my opinion so I could be wrong, I tend not to get involved in other peoples disputes.

Bigal is a rare individual, a man of principle and just as I thought MC, another man of principle didn’t handle it well, Bigal didn’t exactly make it easy imo.

In fairness I don’t know either of them that well but I would say Bigal was very stubborn on this one. Again that’s just my opinion, as I’d of let it go with the blink of an eye but he just wouldn’t. Right or wrong though you have to admire his resolve it’s rare these days but then you could just as easily admire the clubs resolve. It was subjective at the time and still is.

Anyway there was probably a period where it could possibly have been sorted but that’s long gone and Bigal has probably found better ways to fill his days.

As I say as far as I’m aware he hasn’t fallen out with Trinity but he won’t be back whilst MC is in charge, though imho he probably won’t be back regardless now. These things happen, it’s called life.

Like Bigal, MC probably doesn’t think he was wrong and I’m assuming it was him but who knows as I wasn’t there and I may be completely wrong. If it was MC he probably doesn’t even remember it, why would he, he has to balance the interests of thousands of people and he simply can’t please them all, it’s called leadership.

Of course you’d know all this being involved with the club for years, as you often remind us and also apparently being in touch with Bigal. Still as you say you don’t tend to get involved in other peoples disputes.

Also surprised you didn’t know after all I’ve just said that it was about a bottle of coke, wasn’t a secret even at the time.

Re: Mail drop details : Sun Apr 04, 2021 10:11 pm  

boy you do know how to waffle on vasty

yes EW it was a bottle of coke that he had brought in and got out of control when he was told the club had banned bringing in drinks as the club wanted you to purchase theirs in the ground, I was present at the time it happened, Al had a meeting with them and they chose to part ways

Didn't this all stem from the worry by authorities that bottles of anything were a terrorist threat at public meeting places? Remember similar stances at airports back at the same time (2014/15????)
