    Oh right, wasn’t confidential then! I heard this rumour two weeks ago. Plus had confirmation from one of Julian’s curious neighbors. It is on here somewhere.

    Yes and employ a cleaner or two. The ladies toilets in the Main stand was a disgrace on Saturday, those toilets hadn’t seen bleach for weeks. Washing hands area was disgusting!

    I hope Rahic uses this consultant more than the last !

    Mixed feelings on this one. Would’ve been nice if he was replacing Rahic, or even joining the board but consultancy without a timeframe leaves me a bit uneasy. He could quite easily walk tomorrow or they could ignore his advice and cancel the arrangement.

    I hope this is the first step forward on a long road back and we can get back to supporting the team and talking football again.

    I definitely see this as a step forward. Im very very far from being fully convinced yet. I want them to show progress through actions like bringing Rhodes in but I don't fully trust that his ideas will be listened too. Time will tell. I don't think we should stop the rahic out stuff as whilst I think this is a good thing I still am very hesitant when it comes to rahic. I hope that we can try and use this as a way to get fans back in the stadium as without fan support it will be even harder to climb our way out of relegation. Although to those who are still sticking to there principals of staying away until rahic leaves I won't say anything bad about. I don't trust rahic one bit so it will take a lot for me to not be insistent on him leaving.

    Why would we need to pay compensation? Anyone is entitled to leave a job. I’ve done it myself, took a new job then left after a week and went back

    First step in the right direction. But it changes nothing, Edin out!

    Both Rhodes' were present at the Board meeting when the companies' accounts were agreed and approved by the entirety of the Board without any qualification. It shouldn't be beyond the wit of intelligent and savvy businessman who should have understood their responsibilities as company directors to ask the basic question 'How if our company isn't making any profit can we be paying ourselves a dividend?'. It beggars belief that they expect people who lost a lot of money because of their negligence to accept what they said.

    And yes they could have buggered off - not as Richmond did because he was effectively sacked as a director by the Administrator in Admin 1 - but it didn't suit their purpose. Had they buggered off, they wouldn't have been able to watch the Administration unfold, see the debts to the banks and leasing companies which they had accumulated be written off and watch their creditors take the financial hit. They couldn't have then come in at the 11th hour, a matter of minutes before the club was to be liquidated by the Administrator and buy the club back, its assets, its players etc at a fraction of the costs which had been written off.

    If Richmond was sacked by the Administrator presumably as they thought he was responsible? If JR and Prof were culpable why weren’t they sacked off as well?

    He was sacked during Admin 1 by the Administrator, not because he was solely culpable but because he was the chairman at the time of the Administrator taking control of the club. From my experience, it's rare that the entirety of the board is sacked. Some continuity is required for the Administration to be handled properly.

    Rahic out then Canvey Bantams back. Until then I'm not falling for it. Too big a smell of BS.

    I think I understand where you are coming from. I can’t get my head round that you say they sat on £4 million whilst putting their house up as surety?

    Are you for real @Park bantam@Park bantam, you're suggesting Julian has been onboard since these two clowns purchased the club, if that was the case which it isn't, then why would we expect any changes now it's known he is officially doing what he did before unofficially, there is certainly something in the sea air in Whitby.
