For heavens sake is it not possible to attach any fairness or logic to anything involving the old and new regimes?
Mr Glover is not running a club with a huge debt owed to the inland revenue. A bill built up due to the faulty belief amongst all SL that they would get away with image right payments.
Mr Glover did not build the flats and the pull off the deal of the century to keep them after the CVA. Nor did he build the half decent toilet facilities we now have, or the crash barriers around the ground, or the bottle bar, the Wildcat shop, the new turnstiles and the list goes on. He also didn't pay the last time the floodlights were upgraded in 2006.
I'm not defending Richardson or attacking Glover but some perspective please. The fact is Glover has a clean slate and as yet has not had to spend any serious money at all. Lets see how enthusiastic he still is in 3-4 years time when the bills are stacking up again - and they will.
I'm not having a go at you in particular but this new messiah stuff with Glover is getting very tiresome. He's done nothing wrong, trouble is he's actually done nothing major yet. Many RL clubs especially us have been taken down the garden path before.
Untill we get definite clarification regarding our long term future especially Newmarket I'd hold fire. You only have to look at clubs like Rochdale and Oldham and many more to see how badly things can go from very promising starts.
