Ah but he did say at one point he'd be making monthly statements didnt he?To be fair, Ron never said there would be a statement. It was just some bloke (Tweeting?) that FvW said bla bla bla.
Not fussed tbh i get enough ear pie from the wife.

He did indeed say he'd update us more often, but that stopped prettyuch before it began. At the end of the day, does it matter? When he doesn't say anything, it's bad and when he does say something it's rubbish.Ah but he did say at one point he'd be making monthly statements didnt he?

and if we win no one cares what he says and when we lose people care even less!He did indeed say he'd update us more often, but that stopped prettyuch before it began. At the end of the day, does it matter? When he doesn't say anything, it's bad and when he does say something it's rubbish.

Is the write up online somewhere please?
Very unlike Ron.A few times during his tenure he has said he will make regular statements to inform the fans. It's something he has never kept to. So I just ignore it now, it's an empty promise.

@Lord Football is in the process of doing so.
I was present too, and Ron was certainly candid with an acknowledgment that communication will be better going forward. Will leave it to the write up before commenting more.

Does want a CEO, and we will have one. Doesn’t want one when we are failing as we want someone to take us forward.
haha so Ron wants to improve communication but then asks for things he says at a open meeting with fans to be kept secret
There will be a lease on the new ground, in the same manner as Roots Hall. There has been no rent charged and no rent paid. Nothing will change. Objective is to write off all debts when we move. However, if the team came into a windfall, such as a massive transfer fee, consideration may be given to easing the rent write off
Rent isn’t going to charged just as now. He is just going to build up an inter company liability in the books so that if a massive transfer fee comes in or a big offer to buy the club then there is the opportunity in those circumstances to recover rent not charged. In the end however you wrap it up he owns the club and will own the stadium whether via the club or otherwise. This sort of arrangement is just good business sense even if we just want things gifted in all circumstances.Hugely discouraging.
It's all well and good saying no rent has been charged but this doesn't protect the club going forward. It might be an objective to write off debt but it was also an objective to try and get promoted this season and we're going to fall well short.
Even after the stadium has been completed we're going to have no protection against Ron (or a future owner) running out of money or falling ill. With rent being charged we just aren't a viable business.
Fair enough. Tbh it was the worlds worst kept secret before the meeting but you are right not to include- would be a great encouragement for future “openness”No, because it was specifically requested that that particular but of info was not made public. Not sure who has done so via a WhatsApp message, but they shouldn't have done.
