| Quote rpw="rpw"Interesting comments by the Bulls Chief Exec last night on local news.. mentioned a well publicised court case with a rival club as a contributing factor.. funnily enough no mention or admittance of any mis management over the years....
'"
The CEO's mea culpa was covered with the line "We are, where we are" Well that's just fine and dandy then, How much did you say you need?

| The CEO is an honest and thoroughly decent, normal young guy who I believe to be doing his best. He is basically a salaried employee. Funnily enough, he was left holding the baby yesterday as the other directors were out of town.

I'd hold back on those thoughts if i were you Adey considering where you are and who has been running the club.

| It would be interesting to find out if Bradford had put an offer in for Ellis.

| Quote G1="G1"Adey has been swallowing a lot of what Hood gives him for some time. He and I have had disagreements about the extent of what the Bulls had to pay us over Harris for some time.
I never for one second believed the figures were anywhere near those given to Bulls fans by Hood.
I wonder if he may want to reflect on our discussions in light of these developments.'"
I presume they'd want to pay there debts on the same basis as before. The "fund" would be there to provide the lifeline lost by the reduction of the RBS facility. That is assuming that the bulls aren't haemorraging money and that there plight has been the result of 2 or 3 one off drains on cash. That i cannot besure of.

The minute he opened his mouth on Look North and tried to lay the majority of the blame at the door of my club, any sympathy I had for him disappeared
Hold you hands up first to the mistakes you (as a collective BoD both past and present) have made, get your mitigation in second. Don't sound like a whiny primary school kid telling to teacher, particularly not if you're wanting to play on people's consciences to open their wallets.

Might still be on iPlayer.
To paraphrase, when asked how they had ended up in this mess the first item on his list of excuses was a long and expensive legal battle with another club, before then following on with stuff about on-field performance, economic conditions etc.

| Out of interest, did he try and argue the other club was in the wrong, or did he simply state the fact as you have done there?
If he said what you said, he was merely stating a truthful fact. Regardless of the rights and wrongs, the legal battle was expensive (not least in terms of legal fees and other distractions) and long. Was he wrong to state that?

You know as well as I do Adey that when you're in PR mode it's not what you say, it's how you say it.
By putting it to the top of his list of excuses, in the minds of the casual viewer it shifts the blame onto someone else rather than the current and previous Bulls management.
He made no mention of the fact that the Bulls got themselves sued because a former Chairman wanted to get into a penis measuring contest with Hetherington, or that they've subsequently failed to cut their cloth according to their means.
