It’s divisive because you haven’t given any reasoning as to why.

wish I could elaborate more but unfortunately I can’t. look at Rooney Facebook post. An hour later he’s getting a phone call from the club to take it down.

Is that an assumption because they are still here or something you’ve heard?

Something I heard. It chimes with what Gimoc has been posting but presents a different narrative as to why.
As for the Overson stuff, I have no idea what's going on, or gone on, there.

But you can say that Boddy is working his notice, Robins is unhappy and King is fucking up sponsorship deals?

Bizarre...

Again, that's nonsense logic though if you're looking to prove that said post was accurate. You post defamatory untruths about my work, and I'd be telling you to take it down too, that's the natural response!

I never called you out. I'm struggling to see why you're having difficulty understanding that.
But what you've been posting is going to be divisive. What did you think would happen?

You were the one who mentioned divisions in the fan base, I merely pointed out that you've contributed, it doesn't bother me.

He's told you has he? You're close enough to his inner circle or picking up scraps off the disgruntled? I doubt our sponsor will be a local photocopying company again yet you know he's failed in negotiations. Ok.

isn’t that what happens on here? On twitter, Facebook etc… people will always have opinions. Fans are and will be divided because of actions by people high up at the club, not what I post on here

haven’t spoke to Phil or his inner circles as you put it. I know Phil and know he wouldn’t post that for the sake of it.

if sponsors were queuing up for us then I would agree with king approach but they aren’t and the ones that were interested have been told in no certain terms their business is no longer wanted.

Well people wouldn't be aware of so called riffs if you didn't post them. That's not a dig, I would if it was me and I could.
But again, it does have consequences, that's all I'm saying, and if it turns out not to be true then it's caused a lot of bother over nothing.

There's actually a bit more to the box increase fiasco that hasn't been put on this forum but I don't want to put it up and betray a confidence but it's was a bigger PR disaster than people realise so I'm certainly not taken in by King.

you could say that. like any high profile business, you will have ‘sources’ relaying info.

Phil and his lot has their own and mine different. doesn’t mean everyone is right but certainly no smoke without fire

As people keep saying though you can only judge if we make less money than before and we don’t know that yet. I get it that lots of small business owners are unhappy and don’t think there’s another sponsor/corporate buyer in town and they may be right and they may be wrong. But going off now like it’s the worlds biggest disaster in management is just making you look silly.

He was asked to remove it because he was threatening violence and he can be linked to the club in a professional manner.

You made it out like the club was silencing people who disagreed with them when in fact they asked him to a post where he threatens violence against fellow cov fans.
