Cannot answer that WH?? Thought after last weeks' article, that he had seen the light...

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

Can;t argue with that except the immedaite future is actually only in the hands of 3 fans ?

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

He says the forthcoming directors meeting is NOT a crisis meeting. He admits money is owed to the taxman but it's more like £30,000, not the £100,000 figure that's being bandied about on here. He says the exaggerated figures mentioned on here cause more problems for people at the club.

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

The meeting was organised to ensure all stakeholder groups were being informed of everything that is currently happening and what the actual situation at the club is in regards to financing. The idea of this was for each stakeholder group to then inform everyone of any information deemed important. I for one am pleased that Peter arranged it, he deserves a good amount of credit for this, at least we are actually finding out information rather than just hearing whispers. Surely this is step forward Shakermaker?

Not when the club CEO promptly starts denying it the next day!

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

The quote in the Observer will have been made during the day yesterday to get to print today

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

Peter did it as a fan, he knows what it is like for the rest of us who are always wanting transparency and I think thats why he wanted to help keep the fans informed of developments so that at least we have an idea of what is going on behind the scenes.

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

It is plain to see that the clubs income/outgoings do not balance!

Who is to blame?

Does it really matter right now?

Do we go into admin or not?

There are huge questions to be answered

There will be huges changes to be made

The club ie:

The players and JC & JB need us fans,the staff (not counting the board or club managers) but the likes of lewis,the groundman,the other coaching staff,bar staff,cleaners etc..the people whos day to day lifes revole around helping the club in way they can need all the support they can right now!

None of these people asked for this mess nor did we fans,who ever you blame for this mess for whatever reasons do not turn away from the club.

Feelings are running so high because we care so much about our club but do not allow the off field matters cloud your love for the club,come tuesday(if we have a game) be loud be proud(you may feel you dont have anything to be proud of at min)but remember how far this club has come this is not the end we will have a club come whatever may but we will still have a club we will still be ASFC!

People may think im off my rocker(it has be said before)but i feel the only difference us fans can make at the monment is showing our support for our club.

Otherways of making our anger shown towards the mess off the field will come at the right the time at the right place.

Im still a proud stanley fan proud of the team the players the coaching staff,but shaking my head and wondering about business side of things but will always show my support for the club.

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

Rob is not going to admit to the press that we have serious issues going on, it's like Turkeys voting for Christmas.

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

Totally confused now, Dave! How could a quote about what was posted on here last night have been made during the day yesterday? Am I having one of my increasingly frequent senior moments?

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

Rob's quote wasn't about last night. It was about the rumours circulating earlier this week. It's just the timing of the Observer going to press thats put the timing out of sync

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

Right, thanks for the enlightenment. So Rob's saying rumours of our financial problems are greatly exaggerated? Then there's a meeting at the club a few hours later where it's said that they aren't?

Go figure...:rolleyes:

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

:confused: RIGHT SO YOUR SAYING PETER SHAW GAVE YOU ALL THIS INFORMATION ABOUT OUR CLUB,NOT AS CHAIRMAN OF ASSF OR AS A NOT RATIFIED YET STANLEY DIRECTOR BUT AS A FAN. SO WHERE DID HE GET ALL THIS INFO FROM IN THE FIRST PLACE THATS THE QUESTION,IF ROB HEYS DIDN'T GIVE HIM THE INFO AND HES INCHARGE OF THE DAY TO DAY RUNNING OF THE CLUB THEN WHERE.

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

I don't think he's chairman of the ASSF and he is a director, nothing to ratify, I think it just needs recording in the minutes of the next meeting

Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
 

http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/f...ors-56607.html LIKE YOU SAY NOT UNTIL THE NEXT BOARD MEETING DAVE,SO THIS STILL LEAVES THE QUESTION OF WHERE HE GOT HIS INFO FROM:confused:
