Perhaps you may understand if I cut it short. He owned Farnborough at the time and was the self appointed Chairman and Manager. He switched the Arsenal tie to Highbury, got the money, paid himself back the money he had invested in Farnborough and did a runner (that is part of the reason that the FA will not allow a Club to switch their FA Cup tie any more) and Farnborough went bust. Before he left he released five players as not being good enough, he took over Stevenage and signed these players for nothing as they were out of contract at Farnborough. The last time we played at Farnborough their main stand was being propped up to stop it falling down.

Now if Stanley were to be drawn away at Man United in the FA Cup and made lots of money and Ilyas Khan took the money as re-payment of all the wages he has paid and Stanley went bust. Would you pat him on the back and say well done I don't think you have done anything wrong.

People like Westley and especially Evans should be in jail.
