Just saw Godden’s insta post specifically calling out overson, I’ve heard he’s done a lot for the club, does anybody know what specifically?

His last minute winner against Bristol at home when we were down to 10 men was one of my best moments supporting the club. It really showed the spirit and connection with the team and the fans. I've got goosebumps typing this just thinking about it.

Agree.
That was my lads first ever game, and mine and daughters first one back after the exile in Birmingham. Took my old man as well.

gave us the bug back that match. Incredible game and atmosphere at final whistle.

I've seen evidence that when we were at our lowest Rich was even buying the lucozade sports, water, footballs etc for training. The hotel stays and coach fees for away days. A chef so the players could eat at Ryton. Amongst a myriad of other things, that you would think were basics as a professional football club, that without him we wouldn't have survived. Quite literally wouldn't have got games on without his cash

Also Paid for the pitch at the start of 22/23 (Hyam was sold to pay the tax bill)

And Il be careful how I word it because unsure if it's meant to be known, but Mattys words of saying 'none of this would have been possible without Rich' are true. Matty Godden playing for Coventry City quite literally doesn't happen without Overson if you're with me

Modern day legend is Godden - given what he’s contributed during this period of success. Sad at him going but totally understand why.

My granddaughters favourite city player, think it’s probably down to his song, but insisted on having his name and number on her kit!
Was a great servant to the club, not a great season last year but I have some great memories thanks in no small part to ‘Super Matty Godden’ s contribution over the last few years.

Great signing, was a finisher when we hadn't had one for a while and a major part of our resurgence these last few years.
Wish him all the best, if they put the right players around him then he will bang them in for them.

What he has done as a player, is clearly inform us that we owe this Richard Overson guy a lot more than any of us knew.
And I am inclined to believe a statement from Godden on leaving, more than anything I hear 2nd hand on here.

It’s only third party ownership that’s outlawed. Would imagine if he wanted to make a donation/sponsorship gesture to the club then he can.

I am still waiting for you to provide the so called evidence on RO paying for pitch. Just in case you have forgotten

I don't doubt it but the club has now moved on.
A true gift is a gift, I don't understand why some want him turned into some guru I should worship?

I'm obviously not going to am I it's someone else's documents to share.

You want to post your bank statements on here? Ridiculous request, if you choose not to believe me I'm fine with it, but ask yourself why players like Godden, and Vik in his leaving video last year, thank Overson personally, alongside Robins always waxing lyrical about him

And….if he didn’t we would have been more in the shit than we already were. Stepped up when no one else could.

But yeah let’s not be thankful for any of that. Dare anyone show any appreciation. Odd.
