Guys, dont waste your time complaining about the headlines and content of the LET. My own position with respect to this paper is based on 4 specific examples that I am happy to expand upon. Its clear that there is a deep seated pattern of unfortunate behaviour that comes through, and all we can do is focus on our own performance on and off the pitch. Lets not worry about what someone writes or does not write. the wonder of the world we live in - and the incredible transparency that is available to us all, is that we no longer rely upon such third rate journalism to inform and educate us.

The Dec petition has been well documented. In fact there was a shareholder meeting that was called, and i am on record as having apologised to the fans for the way in whcih the petition got to be gazzetted. Not only was the debt repaid, but as you will see from a separate post i have made today, we (the club) has entered a great new position.

As I say, its very sad that the headlines from a paper that is meant to be local, sympathetic and supportive has consistently been either misleading, or frankly badly written. You will recall the blaring headlines from 3 stories in the past months that were either unattributed, or plain wrong. They are entitled to write what they wish. Our job is to ensure that the facts are available to all - and the internet and other papers are only to happy to report on that basis as opposed to starting from a negative standpoint.

And anyway - does anyone care ? we care more about morecambe on saturday. We care about getting into an automatic promotion place. we care about our players and the fact we have a united team. we care about Coley and Bell sticking with the game plan.

So, as i say, dont waste time on this bulletin board complaining about the newspaper in question. its simply not important, and on this occasion, simply another example of a badly judged, badly written and ill mannered article. Lets hope that they realise their errors and can improve as the season progresses.
