Simple poll a yes or no is required none of this but who else is there crap I just want the club to see an opinion rating on shrimperzone whether we want Ron Martin running/owning/destroying etc... whatever you want to call it.
 
If he had the money to run us properly Id be happy for him to be here.

I dont think he does and based solely on that the answer is a no.
 
Untrustworthy. Emotionless. And doesn't even seem to be a good businessmen. With no plan at all apart from disguising the truth.

For that reason I'm out.
 
I might as well be the first to throw some objectiveness to this. Do I want Ron at the club. Absolutely not. Would I see him walk out tomorrow though, probably not. Unfortunately, like it or not we are intrinsically linked financially with this man, before he can go there needs to be a viable replacement to step in to ensure the club doesn't sink. I want him out, but not at the expense of our club.

Edit: Not even close to being first, damn my slow typing.
 
I support Southend United. I don't support any particular chairman.

This poll is treating a ridiculously complicated situation as if it's ridiculously simple.
 
He should of gone 3 years ago more so than now when the drastic financial mismanagement of the football club first come to light!
 
To get rid of him would probably mean liquidation and re-starting in the Blue Square South.

Not something I would like to see obviously, but I cannot continue seeing my club run in such a poor manner.

If there was another option to oust him without harming the club, I would love to hear about it.
 
A comment posted by Robbie Cowling the Col Ewe chairman --- shame Martin doesn't think the same way.



"It was reported on the news that only 16% of the public trust what Nick Clegg tells them and, if I ever get to a stage where only 16% of Colchester United fans trust what I say, then I promise Bob Russell that I will actively seek to sell the club."
