Thanks mate...... God this thread will have a lot of comments I'm sure.

 

[TrueBlue]

Relegation “it’s the last thing we anticipated” dear Christ
Asked to apologies to the fans - he did not.
Does not think the embargo made much of a difference

 

[Tinks]

How many times does he go ermmm, ermmmm and no apology

RM will never change, lives in a world of his own, always looking for excuses when they are right in front of him, honest this man is far from.

Will be the same in the meeting tonight

After the Grimsby statement from them you would think Ron could at least apologise! Disgusting the contempt shown

 

[Chrisb]

Sorry seems to be the hardest word ....

I personally would have liked an apology and in the least some sincerity

 

[blueblueblue]

Half way through, it doesn't sound that bad an interview.

 

[TrueBlue]

Glenn has asked some good questions

 

[Tinks]

Not once has he admitted he has failed anywhere.
the club has been completely mismanaged and it would have been nice to have heard him say so and hence display some insight and awareness

 

[TrueBlue]

Don’t worry Ron will take the EFL on so we can stay up ?

 

[southendkid]

Ron started off quite calm and measured, Glenn couldn't quite get him to apologise but he was saying some positive things about meeting Stan's CEO and promising to invest next season. He did start to get a bit bitter when questions started being asked about what the fans thought of him though (whilst not professional at least he seems to care about what the fans think of him).

At about 20 minutes in is Ron implying we're going to mount a legal challenge against the EFL relegating us due to the National League not relegating anyone this season? Hopefully someone tells him it's a terrible idea, I can't see that going anywhere (why the National League not relegating anyone would mean League 2 doesn't either makes no sense, it's not like there isn't anyone coming up) and it will generate a lot of bad PR for the club.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

The Chairman's "going nowhere," I agree .Just like SUFC.

 

[TrueBlue]

“We need to remember the good times”

 

[Sherif H]

When you work out that 23 years of home and away games equates to 1300 trips, it explains our finances!

 

[blueblueblue]

Some good questions and answers. The CEO question was positive, I'm sure we'll get one.

 

[Shrimper57]

Glenn has asked some good questions

But has not got the answers. Let off the hook again.

 

[stortford]

So where do you stop promotion and relegation Ron? Does your argument mean if there can't be relegation from League 2 then Rochdale, Swindon, Northampton & Bristol Rovers should stay in League One? and Wycombe etc in the Championship? And the Premier League?
