Methven Gone

[Spartan]

Stewart needs a new hype man

James Hunter at the Chronicle:

BREAKING: Charlie Methven has resigned from the board at #safc for personal reasons. He will officially leave the club next Thursday. He will retain his 6 percent stake in the club

Personal reasons relate to his family - he and his new wife Helen are expecting a baby in the New Year - and also his other business interests. #safc

profits in the Colliery Tavern will be down

 

[Freddie the Greek]

Ellis Short is in the U.K. as well. Probably unrelated.

They Fooked up a promotion that's all....no need for the shoite

I happen to think he’s also been quite incendiary, patronising, dismissive and arrogant in his communications with the club’s supporters and sometimes interviewers too.

Surely this cements the quick flip theory. Didn’t come off so he runs away to his mansion in the Home Counties to wank over videos of Orgreave and leaves his mate SD (who is seemingly alright, maybe just because he is in so much deeper financially?) to clean up the mess. Never trust a Tory boys and girls.

It's obvious the Yanks will be taking over eventually.

 

[philFTM]

See ya Charlie , won’t be missed

 

[Steesafc]

Hope it's the Americans swinging their chopper. Much needed to switch shit up because we're absolutely rudderless at the minute

 

[Black Cat Gypsy]

I never seen a business that has had so many people quit, resign or taking a break for personal reasons than us. This is the third person since October who has had "personal reasons".

 

[Roker Mackem]

Davison, Methven, looks like Donalds empire is crumbling around him

I think they will all be gone soon enough. Lets hope the yanks are happy to run the club.

 

[Smiler]

I think they will all be gone soon enough. Lets hope the yanks are happy to run the club.

Or at the very least find people who didn't fail after spending millions at a non-league club

 

[Confucius]

I think they will all be gone soon enough. Lets hope the yanks are happy to run the club.

I'm hoping so mucka, I'm also hoping it was Methven who was instrumental in bringing in Parkinson, hyping his CV up, whilst others didnt want him. I know, I know I want all of my birthdays at once

 

[hank williams]

Got a new job.

Boris Johnson PR man

Or prince Andrew

It doesn't imply anything either way regarding a quick flip like

He's keeping his stake. Whatever the reasons, bust up, personal, can't take the scrutiny/grief, whatever it is...... he's just not involved day to day. Means nowt beyond that.

And there it is.

? Think this might need expanding on like mate.

My dick's bigger than yours and such like...

but a quick flip was what they hoped for

 

[gardni]

Using his terminology, he was a parasite. Knew all the wrong things to say at all the wrong times. Good riddance.

Only they turned down bigger offers for themselves to stay longer and have now taken out a loan where the risk is on them? Aye, right mate.
