The pledge is going well, but i think it would be more successful if Hood walked. A lot of people including myself don't trust Hood with there £100, i have pledged because i feel i have too, but i cant belive iam helping that muppet get out of a massive hole. Obviously the club means more, but i can't stand this man.

Oh dear.

You sir have completely lost the plot.

Is a lying dishonest man the best person to run our club?'"


You would think not eh?

Adey talks about a worrying obsession with an individual. Pots and kettles spring to mind.

I do have alot of respect for Adey as a calm and reasoned poster even when he's had to respond to alot of d1cks on here (other teams fans) and put them right. And I know he's still trying to be as reasonable as possible, but there is a point when you can't defend somebody anymore. Think it's reached that point for Hood. Yes we know he doesn't get paid, and he has put time and effort into the club, but he's failed and it's time for a change.

Actually, could you clarify what libelous and unpleasant accusation these are please?

Is he a fit and proper person to run a club? No.
Is he a disgrace? Yes, quite clearly. He has deliberately lied to us all for years.

Nowt wrong with that at all, but perhaps you could put me right.

Blimey, even your usual followers are not backing you up on this issue.....

This propaganda has been pedalled for ages by the likes of Adey. As aforementioned however, even the usual club mouthpieces that back him up regardless are noticeable by their absence on this issue. It is a one man band on this one for the biggest "yes man" in history.

Only a fool would want to remove the captain when a ship is sinking.

Only a fool would want the captain to say he was going once the ship had been saved from sinking, without a respected named heir-apparent in place.

Only a thoroughly unpleasant piece of work would find making nasty personal attacks on the captain more important than doing something to try and help save the ship.

Which is what I am doing right now - off to Bullbuilder board meeting.

Are you going to clarify my apparent libelous and unpleasant accusations or not? It is ok to admit you cant. After all you cannot really look any worse than you already do on this thread.

PS, if the ship was sinking thanks to the work of the captain, I would be the first to throw him overboard in order to possibly save others. You probably loved the work of that clown off the Concordia. Only a fool would defend Hood in this case. Only a fool would happily see him stay after being outed, at best, as a liar.

PPS, you would not NEED to think about saving the club had your beloved "captain" not taken us to the brink of extinction. Did you even consider that? At all?

That's balls though, isn't it? The problems pre-date Hood. Hood has questions to answer to put it mildly, but I don't see how he has benefited from any of this.

What is Caisley (the majority shareholder?) doing? Is he putting his hand in his pocket?

Fair question. And the obvious one, who replaces Hood? Bennett? Duckett?

Maybe, maybe not. And he should do.

However I don't recall him telling lie after lie after lie during his tenure. I accept he caused some problems that Hood inherited, but the "captain" has not exactly dealt with the situation very well at all now has he?

Quote: Ewwenorfolk "there is a point when you can't defend somebody anymore. Think it's reached that point for Hood. Yes we know he doesn't get paid, and he has put time and effort into the club, but he's failed and it's time for a change.'"


Wakefield fans reached the same conclusion about Ted Richardson last January.

Unfortunately from the CLUB's perspective, the only way a change of management can come about in the current situation is through the BUSINESS entering Administration.

Yes, there's still time for a benefactor to come forward before the deadline but you need to ask yourselves how good their business acumen really is if they would rather cover all the current liabilities when they could give the CLUB a clean slate if Administrators were appointed.

As I've said on other posts, I don't like seeing the Bulls in this situation but the reality is that there is only one way to give the CLUB the sound footing it needs to have a strong future. As the saying goes "Short term pain for long term gain".

It is a situation that should be forced. The RL should not allow people like Hood to run a club. He is bringing the game into disrepute.

Sadly though, the likely outcome will be that we hold a fans forum, people will go along to have their say and come back fooled by another Churchillian speech by Medley and all will be well.
