why are you still here Ted? go nobody wants you most never want to see a Richardson again

hope somebody nicks his stick and lets his tyres down on the way out..


and i don't condone any sort of behaviour like that

Do it Ted, or I'll get Bill Sykes to av ya.

Richardson, Rogerson, Maskill.. who knows who they are these days. Maybe a little muddled with all the Trillion and Javine etc... that has cropped up over the past few days.

Diane married a Rogerson, simon I think, and soon divorced. Nice fella as I remember, don't mix others up with that lot.

GO JUST GO !!!!!!

I think he should resign but think he's holding out for cash to pay his IVA. He won't leave until we have a new owner or we are in admin and well and truly done for.

if this had come out prior to Sundays match they'd have had to sell on the turnstiles only, they wouldnt have had the shop open.
Has the shop been 'open as usual' this week?

Just out of interest, and frankly I'm beyond caring - if Ted resigns now, what happens next?

I really don't know but I assume whilst he is there WT exist (in a fashion) but if he goes we no longer exist as a company just a pile of debt.

Until the white knight arrives, is it not a case of better the devil you know than nothing.

Yes Ted needs to go even if he hasn't deliberately done wrong IMHO. But before he does he owes us the time to allow others to step forward.

So for me it's yes but not until a mechanism is in place to move the club forward.

The mechanism will be administration, which will happen if we don't raise the money to pay HMRC. The white knight either appears before then, buys the club and settles the debt, or buys the club from the administrator. At least, that's how I understand it.

Fair enough, I just don't want Ted to bolt if he is still of some use.

Like all of us I don't know exactly what he has done, though to me it's not looking pucker whatever it ends up. That said, no matter how devious and wheeler dealing he has been I doubt when/if he cooked up this dodgy deal he ever meant it to go so horribly wrong. That's not excusing him, if true he deserves all the hostility he gets. However as I say if he didn't mean it and thus has some remorse, then as far as I'm concerned he needs to give his all to help put it right.

So for me I'd keep him in the hot seat until he has done all he can to rectify the situation.

It's really hard to explain what I mean, no way am I being soft on the guy (if all true) I'm just being pragmatic on behalf of what may or may not be left of the club.

Right going to dissapear for a another few month before all this brings the rash back

I don't know about not meaning it to go horribly wrong - obviously, he didn't want that - for me, it's a question of whether or not he was deliberately trying to deceive and profit from the club. That hasn't been answered, for mine, so I'm prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt until it is.

That said, yes, of course he should go, no question.

As ever you get it monumentally wrong on virtually every level. Yep it's clear to see I'm sticking up for him, the expression "Ted needs to go even if he hasn't deliberately done wrong IMHO" is an unquestionable sign of support, no really it is

People like you with your lynch mob holier than thou big hissy fit mentality achieve nothing, you just love the sound of your own voices - sadly you never learn. Shouting, accusing and abusing will not sort this mess out. If you think hanging Ted out to dry will help your wrong and even more deluded than even he appears to be.

No room for sentiment or revenge, we need to salvage what we can, and like it or not there will be an element of working with Ted involved. No point kicking a wounded dog who may still be able to bite you. Try and be grown up about it.

One more point, THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY SERIOUSLY INTERESTED PARTIES in the real world, they only exist in the over active imaginations of people like you.
