These two paragraphs epitomise the predicament we face.
A young girl empties her piggy bank in the hope that the contents will go some way to help.
The second paragraph sums it all up... MY OWN OPINION, but I feel the fans are being kept in the dark. Just as any parent would protect a child from the awful truths about the many awful things that happen in life.
Supposedly pointed statements from the club stating directors are going to put money in the pot.....More fundraising ideas in the pipeline.....
Over half way towards the deadline and not even 1/3rd of the money raised....
Nothing on the official website to alleviate the many concerned and worried fans...
If the present regime are SERIOUS, HONEST and COMITTED, ...In MY OPINION and moreover echoed by the sentiments of many...it's time they showed their hand, so to speak. Put the cards on the table and let's all see....
What sort of contributions are O'Neill and the directors going to make and when???? What is the true extent of the financial problems we as a club face??? What is the present regime's strategy to clear such debts ?? (Other than the tax bill,some of which we may not even know about), What IS the long term strategy???
All I seem to see in the media, seems to be point scoring between the club and ASSF. Each think they possess the best strategy to take our beloved club away from this extinction threatening predicament and on towards hopefully better things.....and still the clock ticks relentlessly towards the deadline
I wasn't around in '62, but have read (and this may be right or wrong ) that the day after the resignation was tended and accepted , somebody turned up with the money to try and clear THAT debt, in order to try and save that side, but it was too late??? ...Please correct me if i'm wrong.
There's just over three weeks to go before the deadline that threatens to let lightening strike twice...
Hyde and their fans are looking forward to making plans to play in the F.A. Cup this season and continuing in the league, after they managed to sort THEIR situation out.
Can we look forward to Grimsby away the following Friday night after the tax deadline?? Can we keep our fingers crossed for a good draw in the first round proper of the F.A. Cup and hope to see our beloved club progress, hopefully on towards a money spinning draw in the next round or beyond???
It was mentioned in a statement I ( and many others have probably)read recently, that it was felt by some that " the board was playing poker with the clubs future" and that the present board are .... "fighting a forrest fire with a water pistol"...
Well, MY OWN OPINION, I'd like the present regime to show what sort of hand they're playing this situation with ....and what "firefighting measures" they plan to use....
Preferably sooner rather than later. And hopefully not too late.
