Seems like you are the man ' in the know' let's meet up and have a pint, before either of the next two home games.

Oh, I almost forgot, are you not the guy who refuses to show your presence at the Crown/Wham whilst Coley is still here?

Never said I was the man in the know did I???

Whether I attend home games or not, is nothing to do with you.
 
Whilst I cant pretend its a good thing that Rob has left the club, I know nothing at all surrounding the circumstances of his departure. Without such knowedge I couldnt possibly condemn Burgess for his role. The club has long needed some 'tough love' and this may well be what Burgess's job description is to deliver.

IIRC Rob's appointment was temporary was it not?

Anyroad, thanks once again Rob for all your efforts over the years. By the way, should you be offered a third term then you'll be up there with Messrs Craney, Boco et al :-)
 
I think Rob's interim role was negated by appointing the new MD. Rob put his heart and soul into it, and was very hands-on e.g. selling season tickets himself after hours and asking fans questions in an informal marketing research way. If you are MD or CE of a small club you end up doing several job roles for no extra reward. Rob seemed a good fit as a fan on the operations side of the club, as you would have to be in order to be so dedicated.
 
lets hope we don,t end up like some clubs who,s fans are more absorbed in off the field issues than on the field ones. my lad supports stockport county and for a couple of years that,s all he seems to go on about. they employed a new CE and he started by ridding the club of fans who did a good job for the club and getting his fingers on everything including player and manager recruitment if they were not in his big plan. in the end he left before any more trouble was happening. all he gave them was grief and relagation. he had no previos football league experience but where have we heard this recently. personally I,m really worried as lightning can strike twice.

GUTTED-absolutely gutted for Rob.I may never have been anywhere near your fine town in my life, but I know for a fact how much passion and love for the club that man has. Keeping the ''wolves from the door' is never an easy thing in any business, but to do it for a footy club with a profile is nothing short of a miracle. It would be easier to juggle eggs.
I really wish him and his family well.

Rob Heyes has RED blood because he is STANLEY through and through, like many of us owd die hards!
Yes, we could argue about his 'imperfections' but he was always on the side of the fans because, being a committed fan himself, he has empathy with us all.
A sad loss, so good luck Rob and I hope that things work out for you.:thumbsup:

"Progress!........I presume?!:idunno:
 
Rob, found you to be extremely courteous when I met you a number of years back on one of my rare trips home. Delighted to hear your news and offer my best wishes in your new job.
