    Even their ceo thinks he is something special turned away from the boardroom for refusing to wear a tie.

    How embarrassing. Why doesn't he just follow our dress code and stop being a pretentious Twit.

    Too right, he can have any dress code he wants at his club, but should be respectful of others also.

    Even some of the forest Green fans don't even back him. If you know you are going into a boardroom of the club your visiting you accept their protocol if not tough luck your not getting in.
    He was even offered a tie but refused so sat with their supporters then complained about it.

    I have no time for outdated protocol; I also wonder if they insist that women have to wear ties.

    Im sure if our CEO turned up at their place with a bacon sandwich in his hand he would be turned away. Its all meaningless, tie no tie, bacon in bread or falfal on rye but the protocol of each club should be followed regardless.

    Yes but it’s still bad manners. it’s him acting like he’s above and special. What harm would it be for him to put one on. It was all a show for him. I do believe in some of what he’s about but he comes across as some kind of green modern age Bond villain

    I thought that their defender No.6 Rawson Farrend played well. Solid and used the ball well.

    I'm sure that women would have to turn up in what ever is set out by the club they are visiting.

    And, within reason, that's fine, providing the same requirements apply to both men and women.

    So you would think it would be fine for a male to be dressed as a women whilst visiting a club?

    I think he likes to make a stand on just about anything to me. If he didn’t want to conform to a dress code, he could quietly go and sit with his own fans no problem. Why the song and dance? He just wanted to point the finger it suited his agenda. I expect our Chair/CEO to not insult the away team’s facilities and to graciously accept whatever the norm is at that particular club.

    Whether we have a dress code or not is at the discretion of the club, not bothered either way tbh.

    Let’s remember that this is the same boardroom which was voted the best and most hospitable by fellow directors last year. http://cgceventcaterers.co.uk/success-for-bradford-city-afc-in-2019s-the-stadium-events-hospitality-awards-2019/

    The only thing was that you lot were very very mean as Kerry and Kurtan wanted to come to the game! Potential star fans there.
