newyorkcanary 14 Posted September 11, 2009 I couldn''t find how to comment after the blog, so hopefully he will read this: When Joe Ferrari called to request he not speak to the 4 players, why didn''t Lakey just say no?I hope this isn''t an instance where the club is intimidating an Archant journo to protect itself-- what we feared with the recent board appointment.

newyorkcanary 14 Posted September 11, 2009 I want to add that I don''t question Lakey''s ethics. I actually like him very much. I just don''t like the fact that club PR is telling journos who they can speak to and who they can''t. It''s a small step down the slippery slope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Absent Friend 0 Posted September 13, 2009 Pete. On the blogs home page is it possible to add the date each one was last updated (as happens for NCISA and Capital Canaries)? In the past I''ve followed 2 or 3 of the blogs and it''s nice to know when they''ve been updated without having to click through all of them every time.Absent Friend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted September 13, 2009 Not a bad idea to have a blog, but surely Chris Lakey has enough outlets now to give us his thoughts on all things NCFC, without this blog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PurpleCanary 5,562 Posted September 14, 2009 There is a very interesting , half-buried, line in Lakey''s piece today on the NCISA meeting:It''s a shame noone thought to mention recently-reported interest in the club by theBirmingham Two, the Davids Sullivan and Gold. A shame because it''strue, you see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daphne 0 Posted September 14, 2009 I saw that Purple: looking back to the meeting it''s amazing no-one asked about potential buyers..............Chris Lakey could have passed someone a note suggesting the question could have been asked - or perhaps he''s only just thought about it too!

PurpleCanary 5,562 Posted September 14, 2009 ------Daphne, as far as general questions about investment and takeovers areconcerned it may be people at the NCISA agm regarded them as havingbeen answered by Smith and Jones at the Capital Canaries'' agm on August10th.The point about the Gold and Sullivan story specificallyis that it surfaced two weeks or so after the Caps'' agm. The NCISAmeeting was the first opportunity fans had to ask a director about itin public.I posted at the time the story broke that it looked very much as if itwas well-founded and serious, and Lakey''s comment bears that out.------ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
