canary cherub 1 Posted October 4, 2008 [quote user="Nuff Said"]FFS, talk about seeing the glass as half empty!1. Did anyone complain about Carl Moore funding Huck''s wages and that it showed we must be skint?[/quote]Yes indeed. Some of us complained long and loud when it eventually emerged that without Carl Moore''s contribution we wouldn''t have signed Hucks on a permanent deal even though he was the nearest thing you will ever get in football to a guarantee of promotion. The issue then was not lack of money but lack of ambition. That doesn''t mean we''re not grateful to Mr Moore, far from it. But in both cases the board''s inability or unwillingness to cough up raises serious issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canary cherub 1 Posted October 4, 2008 [quote user="1st Wizard"][quote user="crafty canary"]What a way to run a footbal club. Why don''t they just put charity boxes in every shop in the county. We could have an annual flag day too to raise funds. Our club is fast becoming an utter joke. We almost make Newcastle United look a coherently run club![/quote]My thoughts exactly Crafty, and the club actually seems proud and pleased to announce it![:$][/quote]I don''t suppose Mr Moore gave them a choice . . .

canary cherub 1 Posted October 4, 2008 [quote user="jas the barclay king"][quote]Its amazing that people can manage to criticise Moore, yes criticise the board for needing a handout just to afford a 1-month loan deal, but without Moore we would never have had Huckerby and wouldnt now have Lita temporarily![/quote]the board mantained the share issue was for the signing of Huckerby.. now its clear it was Carl Moore.. just what was the share issue for then?jas :)[/quote]The purpose of the share issue was to cover the shortfall caused by the collapse of ITV Digital in 2002. Unfortunately it also put the club in a strong enough financial position to borrow the money for the LSE land. There, I''ve said it. It was fans like me who bought into the share issue that unwittingly enabled the club to speculate in land. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henceforth I will never pay any attention to the club ever again. The point I was making (possibly badly) is that it is not the job of the board to fund the club. Any supporter is welcome to donate to the club, the board is intended to manage the PLC - two different things.And thank you for your interest in the size of my buttocks.[:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobert 0 Posted October 4, 2008 You toalk total rubbish and if you bothered to look at the accounts you would understand that Mumby and Doncaster are just employees of the club and I doubt if either of them have any more money thant you and me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
