Sooner Tynan goes the better.
Sooner Tynan goes the better.Seems like the old guard Dawkins, Overson, Boddy and Tynan aren't happy being pushed aside!

Its all about opinions
I dont trust him and think by christmas the tide will turn against him
If it doesnt and everyones still tasting his smeg then so be it
I don’t live by the notion that King is great because he got SISU out but by his actions and I too am cautious but supportive until I have reason to not to.I’m not convinced by King - he’s started well in some respects with making the off field stuff more professional. He has however stated he wants the play offs 3/5 years - this won’t happen without investment on the pitch. I’m reserving by judgement until he’s given the tools to Robins so these goals can be achieved
we were burned under SISU - forgive us for being cautious
Have we not got a link to the interview yet?
Correct, it's about opinions and while you're entitled to yours, it does not automatically make them the only correct ones. And being vulgar about those who don't see your point of view doesn't make your position any more tenable.
I thought we'd left toxicity behind after SiSu reduced their input (if they still have any at all) but it seems some fans rely on vitriol and negativity to justify themselves sometimes.
I don’t have any idea what Overson has posted this in relation to.
Could be wrong but I suspect it's in regards to the box situation. I know a significant chunk of box holders have banded together with a view to openly complain about the price hike so perhaps something related to that.
Its a bit shitty, he knows a fair few of the players and if they see him posting cryptic shit about the ownership it has potential to be a little disruptive.He should say what it’s in relation to. Just causes people to start speculating and making things up.
He’s been a good friend to the club.

Don’t you have to be 16 to have a go on the lottery ?Saddlebrains is the kind of guy who if he won a million on the lottery he’d complain that the notes were too crumpled
Bare minimum ? Home ground secured, new top class pitch being laid, same at Ryton and refurbishment, new contracts for the management team, nearly 13000 season tickets sold already, corporate boxes sold for proper money, debt free, all since January if that’s the bare minimum i can’t wait until he gets serious and does a proper job.
Never criticise Richard Overson he put good money into the Acadamy possibly kept it afloat as a cat 2.He should say what it’s in relation to. Just causes people to start speculating and making things up.

Paid for a portaloo at Ryton but Doug King personally chucked it in the skip during the redevelopments there, after Viveash had stunk it out before training with the previous night's Vindaloo. Overson wanted his money back but King sprayed shaving foam in his face when he confronted him, so Overson emptied the portaloo all over the new pitch. They're now not talking to each other but the pitch is in the best condition it's ever been in.Overson been told 'thanks but we don't need your money anymore?'
They are all bare minimum things in reality
I guess I just want to see something positive from him. You can talk about fans doing their bit, but when we’ve had record ticket sales two seasons running I’d argue it’s the club that’s not pulling their weight here. Ultimately no matter how much Doug doesn’t want to lose money, that’s what’s going to happen due to the state of the game at this level. There’s no route to profitability at this level, you get out one way
And with it got a level of access and influence that he no doubt enjoyed.Never criticise Richard Overson he put good money into the Acadamy possibly kept it afloat as a cat 2.
*powderHas Boddy been given his marching orders then?
The other more controversial way to look at it is that these guys & others were arguably fleecing the club by paying a fraction of what they should, and are now throwing a childish hissy fit because they’re no longer getting what they feel entitled toAnd with it got a level of access and influence that he no doubt enjoyed.
it was not an anonymous donation. That’s fair enough but let’s not pretend it was a selfless act either.
At current prices that would likely net the club more money so yeah. They could then sell the other boxes individuallyWill everyone on here be happy if only half the boxes are sold? Genuine question

I don’t see why people are outraged at the price given it’s League average? The timing and communication of it is bad - but the pricing is in line with the league
Well yes. Half of 12 boxes sold at new prices we make an extra 40000 minimum. Then they can sell the others per matchWill everyone on here be happy if only half the boxes are sold? Genuine question

It possibly saved the Acadamy from which we now have Jack Burroughs, Eccles and Howley in the first team squad.And with it got a level of access and influence that he no doubt enjoyed.

Because he won’t put money of his own inListened to the Doug King interview in full.
The bottom line is, if you won't a successful football team then we're all going to have to pay more.
