Worrying thread on BBC's 606 message board

So we gave Fedinand a contract so we could sell him as we need the cash, yet we told grant we would sell him and then turned down all offers. Contradictory?

 

[Big Albert]

I may be wrong but I'd bve very suprised if he has seen the accounts before they have been published. I thought that was illegal, but doesn't mean it didn't happen. I also find it odd that the news about Anthony Grant would feature in the annual report liklewise the signings we didn't make. Even so I'm sure they will be sad reading.

 

[Beefy]

If these things aren't true then I'm sure there are other things going on which we've not heard about which are equally bad. I'm also sure that the next set of accounts will make sobering reading, just as the last few have. I'm just not sure what can be done to turn it around.

After the last season or so, if anyone thinks that the annual accounts are going to be anything other than absolutely horrendous they are mad.

As for the Grant thing, if the club had sold him then they'd be ripped apart for offloading one of our best players; if they'd turned a bid down when we needed the money that wouldn't have been right either. There may have been enquiries but no firm bids; we don't know.

For me this is just about getting to FF any which way we can and then Ron selling.

The fact that the poster puts negative spin on Kane signing means I'll view them as a ****-stirrer. So what we expect money for a good young player?! Why's that a negative? Seems like sensible business to me.

Absolutely when you consider we've always been a selling club.

Absolutely when you consider we've always been a selling club.

And I'd rather be a selling club than a freebie club

In our current position we ain't a buying club.

Paul Simon actually but...

 

[The Late One]

Perhaps the Trust should run the club ?

They would only give it to Ron... and not tell anybody beforehand :smiles:

It is time for a poll on The Trust.,and this is not meant in a defamatory way just to gauge opinion.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Not fair to pick on Grant, most of the team have been utter guff since February.

probably last time they got paid

 

[Onion_Bag_Dave]

Why would most of that be in 'accounts' ?
I'm not aware of any Small Scottish teams in and around Devon...
I find it hard to believe anything that Ron and anyone else says.
