Unbelievable as their happy clapping for me was just taking the Pi $$ at the fans. What i also noticed at the end was the smoking zone outside the old main entrance was devoid of it''s usual occupants. Now i wonder why that was ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now i wonder why that was ?Was disappointing to see that Tilly, still some will defend it saying its all right, unfortunately summed up our boards ambition..... as for the smoking areas, i think you will find they were in the dressing room thanking the manager for his brave efforts against a top side, and telling him he could have done no more.

His girlfriend/partner stood there doing a ridiculously accentuated slow tempo clap at the end which was basically saying "f**k you we are the owners and we don''t care what you plebs say".

Chesney Hawkes 0 Posted December 17, 2016 Clearly Nephew Tim and his wife should have been booing and/or giving it the Caesar "thumbs down" from the directors box.Maybe the "fans" booing off their own team is taking the piss? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Syteanric 1 Posted December 17, 2016 We are told we can''t attract investment because there''s "non out there"....Torquay united were bought for the 2nd time in 11 years yesterday...A team with no real youth set up, a shocking ground and flit between league 2 and non league have attracted a buyer...But there''s ''no investers out there''.....

alex_ncfc 648 Posted December 17, 2016 Wasn''t there a time when they had the criteria set at they would sell or allow investors as long as they were from the area and supported the club! Ridiculous. And well there''s your answer with Nepotism Tom then. Has done absolutely f**k all to gain his position, it''s an embarrassment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JF 694 Posted December 17, 2016 The problem is that the criteria they have set out for potential investors is practically impossible to find. And they know that, It''s a deliberate ploy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Creative Midfielder 1,985 Posted December 17, 2016 So we are different to all the other clubs in the Premier and Championship in what way exactly?If you haven''t realised by now that professional football everywhere in this country is nothing but a business in which the fans that actually attend matches are very small and unimportant element then frankly you haven''t been paying attention for the last 10-15 years.

JF 694 Posted December 17, 2016 Who knows. But their criteria for new owners simply can''t be met. Not unless a fan wins this mega 2.1 billion lottery prize next week! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,509 Posted December 17, 2016 So what''s your criteria? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted December 17, 2016 I haven''t a criteria. I''d welcome any investment opportunities into the club and like to see them given equal consideration. They have already said that they won''t see the club in the hands of foreigners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alex_ncfc 648 Posted December 17, 2016 Exactly JF, and by saying that they have already cut off about 90% of potential investment options. And then the remaining 10% by saying they must be from the area and support the club. Like you say, it''s all in order to keep control and so they can make out they are trying, but apparently there''s "no one out there". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
