Not many libelous statements in that last page !!!!

Screenshot taken and passed on !

Indeed. Given that people don't seem to realise the trouble they could get themselves (and more importantly me) into, I'm locking this for now.
I'll have a think about sanctions, in an after the horse has bolted kinda way.

Okay, I assume we'll get some sort of indication one way or the other in the next few days - so let's give it another go. A reminder of the following parts of the AUP:

1.2. Messages that are in contradiction with British law, or that promote any act that’s against British law, are prohibited on this site.
1.2a. Legal action
* This covers posting anything that is libelous..., or which risks legal action being taken against the site.
* Under British libel laws the burden of proof is on the defendant – truth isn’t even always a defence.

Cool !
Its going to be very interesting what happens now,Neil back this weekend i believe from his new year break so announcement next monday perhaps ?
Given that the CEO was out with Mr Larvin at the weekend and that other well known "workers"have been texting all and sundry re "out with the new Rovers owner"i think we can say its nailed on,just my take on things mind.
I hope we use the 3x £5M wisely and build a club that can be stable and powerfull with this fellas financal clout.
Hudge and Co arent daft and will do the due diligence to the max,that im confident in and as long as we dont panic spend we SHOULD come out of this better and stronger.

I wonder if he will carry on with his uncouth Twitter account once it is announced , or maybe he will take some lessons in how to conduct oneself as the head of a sports club in the public eye...

Or maybe he will let all his players use the social internet sites to post what they want....Oh wait a minute that never went down well the other year did it...

We can all wonder lots of things,all he is guilty of in my eyes is being a tad over excited !!

If i was splashing that sort of cash into Rovers i would possibly be a bit gobby tbh,afterall he is a fan just like most of us !

If he carries on with twitter so what ? No law against it as far as i know !

No I quiet agree it is his choice and no law against it, his comments regarding his tricks with his wife were particularly classy, not what you expect from the head of a sports club are they ?

Personally I hope he keeps the account, as an opposition fan it will be a constant source of amusement

Haha if you read that as him being him and serious then you need a sense of humour,ever heard of jokes at christmas time ?? No,well you are an fc "fan",all the best for the coming season !

defending it as 'legal', suggests to me that even you aren't completely sold on it either (?). It is, IMO, a little bit unbecoming - though I guess I have to admit to having a pretty low embarrassment threshold.
And if we're going to be relying on his judgement as well as his money, then as first impressions go it is sub-optimal - IMO. Not horrendous, I suppose, and if this were to be the 'price' of financial security, then - well I only have to look at Salford's current plight and I suddenly feel a bit less precious about it.

If it happens, I'd like to see the current coach and squad given this year to develop. Scrambling to get players in at short notice would likely backfire. If we can afford some top-end signings for [i2014[/i, then brilliant. With only Welham and Lovegrove counting as club-trained in 1-13 squad places, a continued focus on youth is crucial if we're going to build depth - hopefully if we're better resourced there'll be less risk of too many repeats of the Scott Taylor situation.

edit

I do have a sense of humour, however if he is to become a high profile member of your club one would like to think he will understand he will be a role model to both young and old supporters and not all supporters appreciate uncouth comments

Unless of course he thinks uncouth and tacky suit the image of your club...

@BET

As the saying goes, you can please some of the people some of the time but you cannot please all of the people all of the time.......


Your displeasure seems more to do with it being connected to RED`N`WHITE... and the fact it has got under the skins of just about every black`n`white supporters makes it all the better....

As for his twitter...... people are saying that he is not setting a good example etc.......... people need to remember that he came from common roots and still has the common in him as demonstrated on twitter. yes he could be more tactful ,yes he could be more guarded, yes he could be more professional and yes he could be less honest...... but guess what he ISN`T..

We will all have to wait and see how it all plays out further down the road, if after it is announced that he becomes as secretive as the rest then so be it.. but i would welcome some more upfront dealings from the club..... however only time will tell..

Personally if I had won the euro millions and i was injecting large sums into rovers, then I think I would be more outspoken and less tactful than him. I'd also probably buy Hull FC and make them our feeder team in the national leagues

He must be seriously wedged if he's going to blow £15m on rovers without any prospect of getting it back or is he just the front man for someone else?

The similarities to the wilby situation are remarkable

Well reading certain RL press Hudgell is awaiting £5000000 hitting rovers accounts before anything is signed over.

With Mr Larvin been a Hull KR Fan and notably not of Irish decent it has no similarities to the Tim Wilby situation.
