I really wouldnt if i were you.

Mind you your lot are not harbouring a violent racist thug anymore so its all ok.

Untill Keef gets there

Shouldn't Gleeson be taking action against his best mate for suppling the pills

I reckon Long has a squeaky bum at the moment

Love the way some people are turning this into some kind of personal glory thread, haha.

Plenty of people doubted Kath, Agar and Rule. Is everything they did wrong or bad? No of course not they had some successes and some failures. As many fans have said for some time changes were required and now they have been made we should be looking forward.

Still if some egos are in need of a boost....best get those socks out.

I am sure I will get shot down in flames for this..and have to say I don't necessarily take the view myself.. but while we are now painting a picture of Rule as some sort of pariah going to any lengths to somehow save his own ass as CEO of the club is it just possible he wrongly got involved because he just wanted to save somebody's career after a total cock up?

How nice of Pookie to take this discussion out of the playground and post an interesting comment. The trouble with trying to pull the wool over the eyes of an official body like this is that generally, the truth comes out eventually.

Aye. When you deal with spin as routinely as he did, the lines get blurred I reckon. It looks like incompetence and maybe arrogance to me, rather than malevolence. Honesty and straightforwardness have come to be seen as for the naive and old fashioned in certain quarters. Spin works, but if you go too far, even for reasons you believe to be good, you can still come a cropper spectacularly. Blair and WMD, while obviously on a massively different scale, being the prime example of the malaise. IMO.

Largepants - It's difficult to know if the truth generally comes out. We don't ever know about the undetected lies.

There is more bad news to come for your "great" club in the next week or so, should be very pleasant reading for the red and white half of the city! All the best

It's fair to say that his actions actually scuppered any chance of self-preservation rather than saved his skin.

As was asked a few times last night, 'Why do it?'. There was nothing to be gained. If he was looking to save his own skin, he'd have fed Gleeson to the wolves. The only motivation I can see was that the board saw Gleeson as paramount to Agar's 'resurgence', Rule decided to try to protect him, and it all went mammaries up.

Either that or others were complicit, which would open a whole different black hole.

Hmmm, really?

I suppose its our turn after what your lots have been up to.

Hows the credit rating this coming year?

Let me guess, we cannot afford a new North Stand, East Stand Extension and require £1m to buy our club from King Tut (so we can afford to pay our players)

Hope that its not that, otherwise I would cry.

I've been told they cant dig the foundations to the east stand, there is a protective covenant on it put in place by Morgs......
