Re the first bit thank god. I have been posting since day 1 of it's introduction that it could never work .

Re the second bit because of that mistake RL is now in the hands of 5 people ie the guys who run Wigan Wire Saints Leeds and Hull.

Richard Lewis's appointment was a suicide note for RL and I will never forget the lies he told on Granada TV just before licenscing was introduced.

If this is true, then this is the best news ive heard for ages..
known Mr DB....from his days at Hilton Park
Must be 22 years ish

Time to celebrate his arrival

welcome back Derek you have my full support as always

We can now get back to running the club as a business instead of a charity!

I will comment when the club make an official announcement.

I think PNE is out of order for starting the other the other thread. I think the club need to make an announcement on the situation (players wages & the return of DB.) as soon as possible.

Only Martyn Sadler in League Express mentions DB briefly. This is several pages after Dave Parkinsons piece which was clearly written and submitted before the post match presentations.

Well from what I have seen and read on here then I would be very happy to support a new board that had Derek, Andy and Maurice on board. One thing I know for sure is that to make this thing work then you need boundless energy and enthusiam and it seems to me that these three guys have these qualities. I think Trevor has done a great job in difficult circumstances and he must be commended in keeping the Club going through some very dark days. However maybe the time is right for some new blood and I would certainly support this new regime if it should come to fruition.

Maurice has just exploded



2 out of 3 ain't bad

When did it happen Demon ?

I have heard about these sort of things happening but this must be the first time for a Leyther.

I could do with exploding to shed a few pounds but to sit on the board you must have the time and money to do the job well, I have neither at present but will throw in a few grand if its right and help in the areas I can add value if required

I believe no take over has taken place yet

if true welcome back Derek . top bloke always had time for a chat

Is it a take over, or just a replacement of the board with existing shareholder(s). At least there could be light at the end of the tunnel, just hope it can be achieved/explained quickly. Sounded like there are alot of positive vibes coming out of post match and I am still annoyed I chose to go home.

I wonder if Centurions TV will be carrying an interview with DB, or maybe they'll let Ryan and Riddy loose on him
