Methven Gone

[Chewit]

Thank you. The feller has thought we are thick northern arseholes even before day one.
I was abused as owt for pointing out in the week he washed up at safc of the calibre of people who wear tuna trousers in this country. Dig it up if anyone has too.
Nivver mind his first appearance on here where he pretended to be a “uni acquaintance “ of Charlie’s giving him a whitewash from being a toff and introduced him to the smb as a weird footie supporting man of the people surrounded by oxbridge yuppie rugger bugger types etc.
THAT thread dissapeared sharpish without any explanation whatsoever.
I’ve nivver kicked off on here or contributed in nigh on 20 yrs ( owner knows why) and the only thing I’d ever want to know is why and how Charlie’s first smb appearance was swept under the carpet.......and I know I’m not alone.
Ban me if you must.

cant stand it when people make judgements on people by what they wear... I think you have an inferiority complex. What ever your point has nothing to do with pink pants

Because we all fell for the bullshit, a year on, because of them, the club is in ruins

We didn’t ‘all’ fall for the bullshit.

Was never a fan of Methven. One of the first things I read about him was that Margaret Thatcher thing and I was never going to be onside after that.

With the news of the fallout with RAWA and these potential links with Brexit Party/Farage I’d say we’re well best with him out of the immediate picture.

 

[Barney Rubble]

did he know he was being recorded or was it a Stasi undercover type bug there mate ?

That recording isn't from the meeting RAWA was in.

Pretty small minded this damned by political alliance. I don’t care, I just want talented people to invest in my football club. Chances are the most successful wealthy people vote Tory. Suppose we can always hold a meat draw to raise funding

 

[sksk3021]

Is anyone going to post this recording?

So, in other words, it's more or less irrelevant.

How does that make it irrelevant?

 

[mag in peace]

Said you were bigger than us once so most of you loved him.

 

[Oily Oily Oily]

To summarise it all the bloke is a tool, he was ok for the first 6 months or so with his pr crack, then the digs at the fans started!

They hoped to sell up in the summer and would of flipped the club for a profit if we had beat charlton! It hasn’t worked out and now the shit has hit the fan!

They don’t have the financial capability to run the club in this league let alone the championship. Do the right thing you chancers and sell up and give us our club back!

 

[Barney Rubble]

As @Ghandi Floss has posted elsewhere - something similar was said at the meeting, amongst other things that RAWA took issue with.

 

[ilovehorswill]

Don’t forget the MD and the de facto Commercial Director both leaving and also neither being replaced...

Shambolic attempts to run a club our size on a shoe string budget

Wheels coming off ahead of schedule

Can only be a good thing for FPP and the club itself

 

[Sima]

Giving it large over a club that were (and still are) two divisions above his club was absolute weirdo behaviour.

 

[Steeeeed]

So, in other words, it's more or less irrelevant.

It shows a level of consistency in opinion and a willingness to express it.

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

How does that make it irrelevant?

Because it has no relevance to what was or wasn't said at the liaison meeting. We know nothing of where and when this recording was made, and whether it's already been commented on. In any event, to me it seems irrelevant to Methven's decision to resign.

 

[ilovehorswill]

This.

Plenty of posters had their doubts from the very beginning.

Private Eye had already slated him before he signed up to "buy" the club

 

[PtangYang kiperbang]

Not really. Makes no difference whatsoever to an accountant how a business is run when it comes to drawing up profit and loss accounts and balance sheets.

Good post. I have a very good accountant who does my books, employees PAYE etc, but he doesn’t have the first idea what I do, or what it take me to be a success in my field.

Hello that was my post about Charlie as I was at uni with him and would have a few drinks and a yarn at the Oxford sportsman’s club (Vincent’s) of which he was a member as a golfing blue. So he wasn’t pretending as it was me. I was pretty surprised and excited that a contact from the past was directly involved in SAFC. I know he has told me there is a lot of rebuilding to do at the club, no quick fixes and patience required. I think the problems were more deep rooted than the realised. If his exit is health or family related and he read this then all the best Charlie. It’s easy to hate one man for 5 years of complete mismanagement and hurt but it ain’t fair. FTM.
