Your old enough to know then that it is not a wise move to accept anything the people who run WT say. I note that the club did manage to obtain some press space for the shop being closed despite it being advertised as open.
I am not going over the answers I have given many times before just look them up. I note that you are still to provide any evidence as to the amounts of money trousered by Mrs Elston. I guess the fact she was employed by the club resulted in her getting a salary, not exactly earth shattering, I suppose she may have put some of it in her trouser pockets so I guess that's what you mean.

Can we all assume that in this context Sarah Elston got paid appropriately as agreed by her employer whether you agree with the amount or not.
Let's not use the phrase "trousered" any more. It is misleading.
I'm assuming the poster who first used it meant "earned" rather than anything untoward.

If you don't agree, please don't post it on here as the allegation would certainly go against AUP.

I agree some of the posts have been somewhat unwise which I think I pointed out. I presume therefore that you are referring to your fellow moderator who chose to use this questionable phrase.

Nice one, who will be present at the open meeting? Anyone from the club?

You don't give answers, you just criticise, and yes I am old enough to know better. Seemingly then so should you be, strange then that you only became vocal so recently.
Not sure about the rest!! d040.gif

I have become vocal because of people like you who blindly continue to accept what those in charge say and do. Whatever you say about Ted he got us into and kept us in SL and AG did develop the ground more in two years than we had seen since the floodlights were changed. The current board are still to prove themselves yet you are quite happy to throw around unfounded allegations about a former employee of the club. I note that once again you provide no evidence to back up these allegations.

I can only go on what I have seen which is a large number of both the playing and non playing staff going the latter to such a degree that we cannot even operate our retail side of the business as stated. We are suppose to be encouraging the lottery but then the person at the club in charge is gone. The commercial side gone with staff resigned or made redundant. The only additional employee KH who would not invest but is happy to take a salary and for what I have not noticed any great changes with the exception that we now agree with GH and the RFL I wonder why.

That is why I remain vocal and will do so until I see something tangible, I will not accept relegation as an acceptable byproduct like many on here. We have survived worse but never with a board whose entire ethos is staying in SL would be more down to luck than planning. icon_biggrin.gifEPRESSED:

If you can't back and get behind a man who has put thousands and thousands of his own money in and worked for no financial return......clearing a defecit of nearly 500k.....avoiding us going into administration by the skin of our teeth.....and working relentlessly to clear debts and give us a bit of a decent reputation with local businesses again.....then don't shut the door on the way out....

I've seen time and time again people put the question to you....what would you do differently etc.....and as yet haven't seen you reply once in any constructive way whatsoever.....

All you do is jump on every single slight bit of anything you can turn into a negative and when anything positive is happening you are very rarely seen or heard....

It's so blatantly obvious you have a personal axe to grind with Michael it's embarrassing......it must hurt so much to see that there is plenty of positive things happening and plenty yet to come....

Yes - and whilst there is a Q&A session with MC going on, there is something much more important to present!

I'm sure there is TRB, just wanted to play devils advocate assuming Agent 111 wanted to put his head above the parapet and launch his incognito attack on MC face to face! icon_biggrin.gif
