Spot on Moondog. 👍

I'm told Moondog took the precaution of banning Warfey several days ago.

It's not much better on here, WS!

It’ll take more than this to put me off my snap!

Hopefully this gets finalised by the middle of next week and those it directly affects - the club staff, JR, the players and the Trust can move on to the next stage, whatever that might be.

I think more importantly the thread ‘who do you want next?’ Needs deleting.

No it doesn't.
Wether you like it or not, it's a talking point and as long as we live in a country where we have a right to free speech that thread should stay up. It's not as if it's not been discussed when he was sat in his seat winning matches anyway.

It can be when we’ve appointed a new manager.

I'll take a look.

It would also be appreciated if folks could report any postings (hopefully the facility is working) that is thought to cross the line

Free speech has zero relevance to an internet message board. It simply does not apply.

I think he was suggesting that it’s not necessary but I could be wrong.

Because in my opinion by keeping mum on everything is doing far more harm than good! Then you moan about horrible speculation. Imagine whats going to happen at away games our players are going to get some right stick from opposition fans. I still say get it out in the open and let’s move on! Besides us fans this is damaging to the minds of our players!

Maybe we will get some flak from opposing fans but there's nothing we can do about that. In the meantime we need to respect everyone's privacy while the investigation takes place. I'm sure they'll be an announcement as soon as possible, after all the trust were quick to make a statement at the beginning of the week.

Ok,I just thought the thread was a bit insensitive considering until the investigation is over James is still our manager.just saying

We're used to the flack.
Brown envelopes, rafflegate, Turner's questionable enterprise, Ched Evans, furlough cheats, vaccine stealers etc.

So do I, will be quite amusing to see the reaction to the Woke devotees on here lose their football club to the very same.

First of all it's good to see you posting again.

You've been long term absent from the 'Personal' section where you usually play these games, so I'm pleased you're okay.

But stepping over your attempts to be some half-assed Daily Mail hate merchant, why are you suddenly echoing our friend 'Walton's' doom mongering (which of course is also just a game)? I don't remember anything nearly as critical whilst Carson and Co were dragging us through the sewers, so why are we suddenly gonna "lose our football club" now?

Here's how I see it: there's been a serious incident. A very serious incident. But instead of turning blind eyes or brushing it under the carpet or seeking a scapegoat the Club are finally doing things by the book.

Which is surely a healthy response which bodes well rather than ill for it's future.

I'm gonna sound like one of those tory MP's you champion by saying I'll wait for the inquiry. And if - IF - Rowe's done wrong I'll place all the blame on him, not the victim. Will that make me "woke" or some other word with no rational meaning? Well never mind, 'cos I'll console myself with the thought of my football club having decent standards again...
