So do we get to see the list of people who had the hidden agenda? What was the agenda? You never seemed to be able to quite say what it was previously, not in a way that made any sense, was it successfully executed? If so why not tell us how and by whom, and for what underlying reason (the hidden reason), I'm sure I'm not the only person who is curious to learn of the detail behind all of this that has up until at least today stayed away from these forums, you will get much more understanding if you avoid talking in vague riddles and produce a coherent statement that makes any remote level of sense to the masses to consider.
My money is another response containing no substance and just jibberish but would dearly love to be proved otherwise, over to you Henbury, detail please....
is that clear enough ?
it it was hardly hidden though eh ?
just once scenario for you. If say, your son or a close friend were banned and then treated like a pariah, how would you react ? Serious question mate.
Without going into the entire narrative, the fact that the ban happened meant that it could happen to anyone and it was NEVER explained nor any evidence was given to back up the ban. All that was said was that it was for consistent criticism. There are many of us that have been critical of the previous board but were not banned and it was not just a ban but the nasty and awful way that KS was not even allowed to come to a wake,that he was invited to by Roger Hardings family. It was spiteful and it was never ever backed up with any facts but was perpetrated by the inner circle of the club. There were outright lies told on the Geoff Twentyman interview and there never was any olive branch to grasp at.
Please remember that many of us felt that if this was allowed to stand that it meant it could happen to anyone and at anytime. There was nothing hidden about it and many were trying to get some kind of tangible explanation about it but that was never forthcoming. It was and still is the most spiteful thing that I saw happen at the club. I find an irony in the fact that Nick was forced to stand down because Geoff Dunford made a point of not allowing the sale to go through unless ALL former directors stood down. That, to me, smacks of karma although it really was more a case of both him and Nick being as petty and vindictive as each other.
Pluckily we now have a professional owner and people around him and there will be no need to go over this again but I think it was the single worst black mark of the previous board. They knew that it would also worry others of being banned too and that, to me, was bloody awful.
The many mistakes and gross mismanagement of the previous board will be down to history to judge but there was no hidden agenda, not as I see it. If ANYTNING was hidden then it was the reasons,that were never produced, to back up the ban itself.
