Not the best reply even if the email was a bit arsey. But who wouldn’t be arsey when a vital home match was moved to a neutral ground?

Remember when George Reynolds threatened to rock up at peoples homes if they posted out bad about him on social media lol

In September 2003, then-Darlington FC chairman George Reynolds threatened to personally confront supporters at their homes following intense criticism of his tenure.
The Guardian +1
Key Details of the Incident:
  • The Threats: Reynolds stated on the club's official website that he would "find out where [critics] live and I go and knock on their door," adding that "nobody has a go at me".
  • Targeted Supporters: The threats followed a period of conflict, during which Reynolds banned several supporters, including a fanzine editor and an independent website organizer, for "inciting" fans and posting critical comments.
  • Context: Reynolds, a former safebreaker, was under fire for a lack of investment in players and for building the disproportionately large Reynolds Arena.
  • Police Investigation: At the time, Reynolds reported that his family was being harassed, while police investigated reports that he was targeting supporters.
