even if he caused the problem himself it would not bother me if he was involved especially if he stayed away and just opened his wallet. Far better than a mr.nice guy who never missed a game home or away but gave the club jack shit.

Yeah, much better to have an owner who exploits old people.

We all make mistakes, and you don't know the full story, maybe he was provoked, maybe someone said his Stout was shit compared to Guinness :wink:

How many mistakes would you allow McGregor to make before it’s too many out of interest. The bloke is a fucking helmet, if any new owners can fund it without him that would be perfect

The same people not wanting Connors investment on board would sharp change their minds if we did a Wrexham.

Or even won 4 games out of 6.

I get the any port iin a storm argument…but in this case it would be an unpredictable risk and prone to fluctuations in behaviour we don’t need…a really boring committed owner with bags of common sense and a love of the club plus cash, would be the preferred option.
The present arrangement is unacceptable and hopefully terminated.soon.

All McGregor needs is an experienced father-figure to mentor him in how to curb his excesses while making a success of Pools.

Step forward Mr Garry Gibson...

If CMs lot take over, I would suggest that.

Pools arrange a orderly queue and time/date for his first visit.
Then those who don,t want him here, Can tell him face to face.

Good to see we’re back at the same level of zero morals desperation that led to welcoming Raj Singh despite everyone fully understanding he was a complete nobhead. Round and round we go.

Things can only get better if Radgy leaves .

Or a lot worse if he stays.

Thats the basic assessment of where we are today.

The cheers for 7 years ago has finally run its course and means jackshit now today.

Where to we go now!???

If he stays Kevin then we may as put our love for the club In the cupboard under the stairs.
The club will stagnate if he stays 100%

If fans cannot see that then Raj has THEM, Exactly where he wants them.

There are no reasons….if he’s in charge next season ….just give up.
Trouble is …if he did stay and we actually managed to win a couple of games, the reluctant critics will come out of the closet singing Hallelujah. banghead

Win 2 then pretend all is rosy then we go 8 games without a win.
Then it's the players n managers fault because Radgy in his words Always backs his managers.

Look, I don't think there's anything wrong with preferring Shelley/Herd for moral reasons. Equally I think most of us would admit that if a Conor backed consortium took over and ultimately did a really good job, we would be happy. People's moral compasses only stretch so far at the end of the day. We are all human and we all love Pools.

To be honest, my preference for Herd is more about Conor's general lack of stability than specific things he's allegedly done. The way Herd have conducted themselves, their statements and the timing of them etc, is just impressive to me. But yes, it's sort of anyone but Kim Jung Singh at this point.

I gave Raj credit for saving the club, and the fact that it was competently run as a business. Salaries were being paid on time and we weren’t facing court action for unpaid bills, so he was a lot better than many other Chairmen.

That all went out the window when he released that embarrassing sycophantic interview with Paul Frost, where Raj said that he was ready to put the club in administration when we got relegated, because essentially he was bored with it. Anyone who would consider closing the club because they couldn’t be bothered anymore shouldn’t be in any position of power at any club.

What do you mean to say that up until the interview with old Frosty the week before last- you were happy with his running of the club? stpid

Take it you've already bought your season ticket then? sctatchinghead

I mean to say exactly what I said, I don’t need you to interpret it for me.

I’ve said many times, Raj definitely isn’t the best chairman we’ve had, but he also isn’t the worst.

We’re back where we started when he took over, bills and salaries have been paid, we’ve had a few that wouldn’t even have done that, and the risk is with any change, we might get someone worse.

But that interview showed exactly how fragile his ego is, and how close he came to pulling the plug because he started failing, because of his own bad decisions that he didn’t want to take responsibility for.

So we are such a thin line away from him being the worst Chairman that we’ve ever had. We’re need to get away from him before he crosses that line.

When you say we're back where we started - we're now in debt to the tune of around £3.5m. Is that better or worse?

Pretty much the same, the club owes Raj about £1.5m according to what is in the published accounts, and the extra that has been announced recently, along with £1.18m to Sport England.

When Raj took over, the club owed £2m to Blackledge.

Raj negotiated a deal for him to pay £1 upfront and convert the £2m owed into a series of payments triggered by promotion and any incoming transfer fees. Most of which would never have been triggered unless we were in the Premiership by now.

The difference is that Raj seems to want all of his money back up front, and isn’t willing to even entertain a deal similar to what he was offered.

You mean so he can exhibit just why he shouldn't be a football club owners??

Anyway, I can't argue with the logic of CM vs keeping Raj and how horrendous the latter would be. However I would prefer the Herd option, stable, reputable, responsible.

I think most, Well more than 63% would prefer the HERD group.
The HERD group are a really private lot, May be that put some off.
Definitely not Raj.

Then those who don,t want him here, Can tell him face to face.


You mean so he can exhibit just why he shouldn't be a football club owners??

Anyway, I can't argue with the logic of CM vs keeping Raj and how horrendous the latter world be. However I would prefer the Herd option, stable, reputable, responsible.


Nothing wrong with him chinning a few if they disagree, might make some wake up and listen


Meanwhile back in the real world.....


Pools really are not in the real world as a club on the whole.

I think most, Well more than 63% would prefer the HERD group.
The HERD group are a really private lot, May be that put some off.
Definitely not Raj.

Not private...I'd say professional.

The 63% means nothing to me…..I can’t take it seriously.

I gave Raj credit for saving the club, and the fact that it was competently run as a business. Salaries were being paid on time and we weren’t facing court action for unpaid bills, so he was a lot better than many other Chairmen.

That all went out the window when he released that embarrassing sycophantic interview with Paul Frost, where Raj said that he was ready to put the club in administration when we got relegated, because essentially he was bored with it. Anyone who would consider closing the club because they couldn’t be bothered anymore shouldn’t be in any position of power at any club.


What do you mean to say that up until the interview with old Frosty the week before last- you were happy with his running of the club? stpid

Take it you've already bought your season ticket then? sctatchinghead


I mean to say exactly what I said, I don’t need you to interpret it for me.

I’ve said many times, Raj definitely isn’t the best chairman we’ve had, but he also isn’t the worst.

We’re back where we started when he took over, bills and salaries have been paid, we’ve had a few that wouldn’t even have done that, and the risk is with any change, we might get someone worse.

But that interview showed exactly how fragile his ego is, and how close he came to pulling the plug because he started failing, because of his own bad decisions that he didn’t want to take responsibility for.

So we are such a thin line away from him being the worst Chairman that we’ve ever had. We’re need to get away from him before he crosses that line.



So were you happy with how the club was being run before the Frost interview (which is what you intermated in your original message) regardless of whether you believe he's not the worst?

And secondly - have you bought a season ticket?

Two YES's will suffice :roll:
