Re: Rob Heys

I broadly think along the same lines as Doug, though this won't be my last post and I hope the one above won't be his. I don't read that post as suggesting for a moment he will stop supporting Stanley, just that he is brassed off with trying to argue a moderate line in the face of all the (understandable) emotion that flies around this message board and getting howled down all the time.

Doug knows we need to work with reality - one reality, as I understand it, being that whoever (EW or DO'N) owns that 51% of the shares could call a shareholders' meeting tomorrow and carry a vote to shut down ASFC 1968 on the spot. Although we owed the taxman money in 1962, no external body wound us up then - it was the directors who chose to resign from the League. The current directors could do the same thing. In that event, even peace-loving me might be on the side of the lynch mob. But for now, we need to sort out a sensible way ahead and if to do so requires us to leave DO'N with some shred of self-respect and Rob with a job, so be it.

Bye-bye karma.
