Re: ASSF response to The Dons programme notes ...

willie. you see a trend do you ?what, of two people ? perhaps three if you are counted.

I am afraid a bulletin board is not a good place to conduct such dialogues - this is now the second time in two hours i believe you are being negative without cause. Yes, its fair to ask questions, and yes, i open myself up to being addressed in this way by coming on teh bulletin board.

Your faith in eric is laudable. You forget who bankrolled the club whilst he was in charge. You also forget that this tax bill is from his time. And oneil and eric have worked together for a while so when eric sold to oneil, I am sure they must have come to some deal which we are all going to find out about at some point.

listen Willie, if you have genuine questions about me and the offer, then ask them. If, like oneil, you wish to cast aspertions, then i cant stop you, but i can (and will) answer back. I have, over 17 yrs, made donations of hard cash. You and I may not have met, we may never be friends, but I have stated categorically that my interest is the future of the club. the fact that two people (eric and oneil) have got the club into this mess where we are going cap in hand to all and sundry is a disgrace. You choose to forive this for the fact we got into the league. perhaps you should ask eric where we got the cash to fight for the league ? or get acceptable ground standards ?

I ask for no favours, but I will not pretend to sit back and watch our club sink whilst you take pot shots. I have made an offer to put £250,000 into the club. My conditions are firstly - transparency (lets know how much we owe, and to whom), and secondly, that it be equity, not debt, and not handouts. Further, if oneil and eric make donations, with no conditions, i will match. what else do you think i ought to do ? come on willie, speak up. what do you think i ought to do ? pack up and go home ? withdraw the offer so that our club will fold, if not on nov 2nd, then a few months later ?

please answer these questions before you try to score debating points with me on this board. if you prefer to chat face to face, name the place and the time. just as i have told oneil on numerous occasions.
