... and don't forget how bad the Pasties have been The cheese pasties are bloody lovely but I wish we could go back to the old proper Cornish pastie lot. I don't know why they got rid of them but their offerings were very good and full of decent meat. The pies now are mostly like hockey pucks and I wouldn't even buy them for a pound. Bloody awful I would imagine our buffoon of a stadium manager had a backhander somewhere

Bloody awful I would imagine our buffoon of a stadium manager had a backhander somewhere I'd have no idea as I don't really know the guy but it seems a few have not got any kind words to say about him. I can only speak as I see and I've had no dealing with him other than to see him when I have done hospitality.

What I don't understand are those that are suspicious of the new guys and the court case verdict brought a few of those out. It does seem that the previous board have acted so badly that many are now just suspicious by nature. I think it's going to take some time for everyone to get on board and understand that this family really are the real deal and that they feel no need to come out and defend what was very much the problem that was created by the previous administration. I think it was a master stroke to get Watola to front up to the cameras and keep a distance from the proceedings. There has been a hell of a lot of damage done and it will not just be healed overnight but I have faith that it will happen and that we will see the damage put behind us. Right now, there are still a fair few who feel sore from the constant fight. Hoping we now give peace a chance, be patient and watch how good businessmen go about their jobs. My only concern with this board is that supporters may lose patience waiting for the UWE build to start, because it could be another 6-12 months before we know anything concrete Are you sure that it's your only concern? Having recently posted that Box 1 is now 'full of sharks' I would have thought you would have more than one concern.

NH had a majority shareholding and so set the tone, best for all for him to go. It's not unusual to keep someone of the old guard to know where the skeletons in the cupboards are, in our case TW, but when he outlives his/her usefulness is usually dispensed of.Hope you are right - and soon!

Something that eats dead or dying things I think the family did that very well don't you think

Your definition of 'shark' better fits 'person having a kebab'. Is that you meant before? You're not making yourself very clear. Can we at least agree that the club was dying under Higgs and that's what you're saying? Jolly good.

I thought this was going to be a discussion on which shade of eye shadow our new man prefers.

After 17 years of team under-performance, Club mis- management and general frustration - we only have another 6-12 months to wait? Not a problem. Blink of an eye. Only 17 years? Far more IMO so only a small wait. I'm going to enjoy the ride!

I'm glad the old board are gone new fresh breath of life is flowing through us right now. There is real real sense of optimism about everything and it is great to be part of it. Long may it continue under are new board.

The only comparison to draw between the two are the titles. The humble approach, the dignity, honesty and respect, the open approach shown so far is a much needed breath of fresh air. IMO trying to draw any other comparison is like trying to make a connection between a Porsche and a Lada.Well, Mr Porsche was a card carrying Nazi, who bought Hitlers design of the "peoples car" to fruition. Later as we know "Volkswagen took over Lada, so not a direct comparison, but a strong link
