LinkNR9 0 Posted March 6, 2006 Delia seems to have vanished off the face of the earth during these troubled times, but the local Press have not done anything to nail her down and interview her.Come on - Let''s be Having You! Why have you not undertaken this simple task and interviewed the Club''s majority shareholder about the current situation at the Club, the most serious for many years?Let''s have an answer please, plus an interview. Are all of you NCFC lap-dogs at Archant? Scared of Nigel and Delia? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oso Butch 0 Posted March 7, 2006 Did you ever get a reply, Link? If so, I must have blinked and missed it. [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpio 0 Posted March 7, 2006 And what would be gained by getting Delia to comment? If she did not tell us that Worthy was going A S A P all hell would let loose on this and other boards. She is already getting enough calls for her to go and let someone else run the club! So why the h*ll should she talk to the press? You all know she is not going to be able keep both sides of the debate happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark .Y. 375 Posted March 7, 2006 I have to admit to being puzzled by this myself. I am a fan of Delia, I had to take a lot of stick at work after last seasons outburst (even though I work in Southampton) but could deflect it all by assuring them that it was only because she cared so much and didn''t they all wish they had a chairman (chairperson ??) who was as passionate.I really thought she would have done some kind of interview lately, is she worried about letting her true feelings slip ???One last point whilst I am posting, although I am grateful that she and Michael have put lots of their money into the club - so have we, obviously not as much but a reasonable sum relatively speaking. We are shareholders (part owners) and are therefore entitled to know what our largest shareholders honestly think of the current situation.Mark .Y. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]sure, as i said yesterday, surely the current circumstances warrant that the board should canvass the supporters who put the money up for the share issue in autumn 2004 to gauge their opinion - else if they want to go it alone (as they are entitled to do so as majority shareholders) then morally they should offer to buy these shares off supporters whose opinion and support they were keen to encourage back then.

ca 1 Posted March 7, 2006 I am puzzled by her silence too, assumed shes refused to speak to the press! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheeky Monkey 0 Posted March 7, 2006 She''s not doing an interview because she cannot justify why Nogel Witherington hasn''t been sacked. Sad times at Carra Rud. The Fortress has crumbled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LinkNR9 0 Posted March 7, 2006 Butch - No, I haven''t heard back from the web team yet. They may well be trying to find out for us.City R Us - Chill out! We know that Delia and Michael currently back Worthington in public, so we KNOW that she''s not going to sack him at this point in time. It''s just that she was so high profile last season, I''d love to read what the person with most influence at the Club thinks of the current situation. Others like Roger Munby, Neil Doncaster and - I can hardly bring myself to say his name - SKIPPER have let us know their opinions on a number of issues; Delia''s silence (which could be interpreted by some as ''burying one''s head in the sand'') is only serving to cause speculation and further widening of the gap between sections of the supporters and the Board.

a1canary 0 Posted March 7, 2006 pinkun editorial staff are doing more than their fair share of stoking of the worthy out fires. it''s so blatantly obvious which side of the fence they are on. i dothink worthy''s position has become almost untenable but i try not toread pinkun anymore because i want the media to inform me, not try andinfluence me. very disappointed in you guys.

a1canary 0 Posted March 8, 2006 So Link, now that she''s made a statement, will you say that it has madea difference to that gap between board and supporters? No, thought not!She/MWJ/Board can''t win, whatever they do or say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

a1canary 0 Posted March 8, 2006 Oh dear Link, there is nothing inarticulate or hysterical about mypost, and if you think that''s having a pop, you need to lighten up abit. Suggesting i''m inarticulate is more of a "pop" but given thegrammatical standard of much of the content on this board, i wouldn''tknow where to begin if i was to respond to that! Provocative maybe, in that i took the liberty of having a go atanswering my question for you, but that''s hardly crime of the centuryand i wouldn''t do it without being prepared to be told differently. So,it''s ok, do your worst, i can take it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]I have a question for the web team - when are they going to start withstricting posts which are genuinely abusive? And protect their interests of having a message board that is free of this kind of behaviour?I first started coming on here at least five or six years ago although my post count is low comparatively - I enjoyed discussions with very welcoming people on many matters surrounding our club - never has the language and attitude of posts been so bad.Link - A1 has just returned from an absence and made some well reasoned comments and again one of you guys has lept onto it!This is making me sick. Both you and 1st Wiz are behaving like the playground bullies that have found that three people may have actually agreed with one thing you have said - now the whole world or a "majority" of it supports you both which gives you the right to abuse other posters on here.
