I am not against GFH , my concerns are that it took so long to complete the deal that they lost all impetus and did not ride in on the wave of optimism that they would have done if they had taken over pre season. We do not know if Bates staying on was part of the deal - they have neither said it nor denied it. Also the same applies to his continuing to write his vitriol in the programme and his getting a Presidency at the end of the year. IF it is their choice then they have not judged the mood of fans properly., if it was foisted on them , then let us know - if it is subject to the confidentiality stuff then let us read it between the lines.
The price for yesterdays game - again may be down to Bates, not them- has not won them any fans. We have not yet managed to sign even the loan players let alone anyone new, albeit it is only 6 days in. I think if they had said and done things better they would have the fans 100% behind them and have given the whole place a lift - instead they are being viewed with at best, ambivalence , and at worst suspicion by a large number of match going fans Dave On Sun, Jan 6, 2013 at 6:22 PM, Nigel Sykes <[email protected]> wrote: > There's a surprising amount of anti-new-owners stuff coming out - I'm > never one to support 'The Man', but FFS, give 'em a chance!
