Quote: Adeybull "I just posted this on the T&A as my contribution to the debate expressing very serious concern at what you were clearly concerned were “poor gates”. What were your plans as Chairman (other than your proposal for a “Sky Blackout” to rectify that situation?”
“Enoch Powell once said that all political lives...end in failure. Would you agree that the same can generally be said for the careers of RL club chairmen?”
Considered answers to these sort of questions would, I suggest, go a long well to helping people better understand the club’s present situation?'"
Some excellent questions which I'd like to hear the answers to. However, if as you say the transfers of Sam and George only netted modest compensation then surely this reflects on the current board. I accept that Caisley is in a strange and untenable position but the way in which we capitulated to the demands of an 18 year old (George) is embarassing. Whilst overall I support your aim of holding Chris to account and hope (like you I think) this is the opening salvo of a battle which will bring a lot of dirty lined into the open, one cannot escape the validity of his key point - we have spent the salary cap or close to it every year and by the time of Steve Macs departure we were the worst team in the league. In a bizarre way I think the chief criticism of either side by the other is valid. Harrisgate has severely damaged the club and this has been excasserabated by an abysmal recruitment and retention policy.
Can you all get lost please?
