Thank you.

Do you have a date for your initial meeting with Liam Sutcliffe and Chris Turner?

Not much good at this finding history thing, but from memory didn't we embarrassingly miss out on a transfer deadline day signing (from Rotherham?) due to AC preferring to partake in a "cooperate go carting" shindig rather than make himself available to orchestrate the deal?

He's perfectly within his right to decline the request

More accurately would be CPS saying “signed a convicted rapist”.....he was for a period of time a convicted rapist. But not when we signed him.


At the time we signed him, his conviction had been quashed, so he was someone accused of that offence.


My issue is the club binned all morality to sign a player and take the heat for it, on behalf of the blunts for a few £££. Disgusting.


From that moment I saw the morals of Ashley Carson laid bare. Throw in all the other stuff, the Ernie Moss stewarding scandal be8ng another true show of Carson’s moral compass...... then not a penny more until they have gone, hopefully via a prison cell.


Screenshot this and show it to Ashley if you don’t mind......This is what sort of wretch your standing by. When they have gone, where does this leave your reputation?

Hear hear. I didn't attend matches or post on this board from the moment he signed until the moment he was 'cleared' legally.
These go to eleven.

Has anyone emailed the charge sheet to Accrington Chairman Andy Holt, yet? He has been critical of clubs who push the boat out too far in pursuit of promotion; quite what he would make of our last few years would be interesting.
It's nice to be able to Trust again.

As about as damning criticism as it's possiblemto get from a sponsor.....


Their successive relegations, and well documented problems off the field, became a concern for the sponsor.

Over the last three years there has been stuff that came from the football club which hasn't covered it in glory. "I'm not talking about just the relegations, stuff that's happened behind the scenes, the incident with the fraudulent raffle ticket, with the academy, a senior management's family betting on stuff. "Each time this is portrayed to the press, they've got a Tomlinson shirt on.




"It's been a hard three years for us with the club, but we've enjoyed sponsoring the club for the heart of what is in it, the day to day staff that actually run the club itself, the people on the ground. They've been fantastic to us. "From our point of view it's a real shame we're parting ways."


“We haven’t been able to come to any reciprocal agreements with regards to the owners and the senior management within the club.



As for Chesterfield FC's off-field problems in recent years, Mr Carson said GF Tomlinson did not make their concerns known to him. But he did rue the loss of the Derbyshire firm as a sponsor. I was asked if Tomlinsons would like to become a shareholder in the club. "We're a construction company, we don't deal with football, we know nothing about football. "The only thing we know about football is that they're a local club to us and they had good links with the community in Derbyshire. "We wanted to sponsor and support that."



Mr Carson was unaware of any offer of a shareholding. "I am not aware of this, there are to my knowledge no shares for sale," he said. "Dave Allen and family control the club with 80 per cent, I own just over three per cent as the next largest shareholder. "The rest of the five million shares are divided up amongst over 1,400 shareholders."
