sorry to bring them up again but reading their reaction to the brilliant pictures in the Mail is shocking. They are winging about the proposed £90million saying its another Tall ships figure and not talking about the scheme as a whole and what it will do for the area.

Only one fella has his head screwed on (apart from No.6 Bus).
"Never got to the meeting last night but there is a big report in the mail about the project today.
My mother lives in Belk street and that is why i went to the meetings to start with and speaking to her neighbours today they cannot wait for the project to begin and if that means HUFC getting the ground for nothing so be it.
My mother's concern is that this fantastic project will get lost in i'll do whats best for the labour party rather than the town and the voters."


They are also making up figures saying the bowls club pay more to HBC than Pools, I want to know were they got this from?

http://www.forum.hartlepoolpost.co.uk/i ... 249.0.html

the reality is, the numbskulls on there are only a couple of dozen in total. Fuck them all to hell and they die.

Twice.

Then thrice

Actually they do. For historic reasons Pools were paying a very low rent and its not increased partly because they were always going to buy the land at sometime soon.

As for HTH, a part from the odd poster, they know the price of everything and the value of nothing.

I don't even think they are a couple of dozen, there's at least 2 or 3 of them with multiple profiles. The annoying thing is I know that some of the main contributors (not certain if they post of not) of information to the site are very well paid employees of HBC who use some of their time paid for by council tax payers to dig for and then submit information to that site. Hypocrisy seems to crop up more than hip hop these days.

I'd go further than that. One bloke has around 5 usernames.

Really! Why whats the point in that

So he makes a point with one username and then backs it up using another. Very sad state of affairs.

I dont like the last two comments on there though;

If you want to run a successful campaign then you need to win over people not make enemies of them. You also need to be a little more open about the real situation. For example, here's a few more aspects to this 'plan' that have leaked out.

According to Gus Robinson's son, the plans for the Odeon, which are dependent on HBC paying to fund a CPO, will most likely lead to it being flattened and replaced with social housing.
The same guy has acknowledged that the plans are not dependent on the football ground being 'given' to the football club and would go ahead whatever happens to the football ground.
Financing currently depends on a combination of contributions from HBC, the European Commission, Social Housing organisations like Housing Hartlepool, Government grants and funding from Camerons for a new pub- note the absence of any significant private finance.
As it stands, at the end of it all the Football Club gets the ground for nothing, Gus Robinson makes a good profit from the housing and HBC loses a valuable asset from its books and swaps it for a chunk of additional borrowing and debt at a time when it is flat broke.

Your campaign at the moment seems to consist of standing in the corner shouting at anyone who highlights the weaknesses of the plan rather than acknowledging those weaknesses and addressing them. The town outside of the football club will want to see some financial input from those who are set to gain from the plan. In addition, if HBC are to take on any additional debt then a solid case of how this can be funded from additional business rates/council tax needs to be made - otherwise it's not going to happen. You also need to take it as read that no handover of the ground will take place until the deveopment is at least underway.

Forget any nonsensical claims of £90m into the local economy - everyone is still trying to find the £26.5m that the Tall Ships was supposed to have left in town.

Actually I'm convinced one of them on there (yes him Elvis) posts things and then argues with himself to spark a discussion and to polarise people one way or another.

Of course he does. So do Tree With Hamster and Grave on here. It's comical..and a little sad.

I talk to myself on a regular bases...

serious question - does anyone know any computer hackers who could have some fun with that place??

but you need very little bait and are guaranteed to get plenty of bites

Just had a look on there and the few posters on there are anti everything.

this MK1 fella is viewing the bunker a lot and we need to watch what is said:

http://www.forum.hartlepoolpost.co.uk/i ... 66.15.html

I said it on the main board and I'll repeat it here. For the time being, leave the personal differences to one side for the time being. If you want to score points, do it here where it can't be seen.

Or, in a perfect world don't have personal differences.

Fuck, I must have lived in a Buddhist/Taoist society for too long.....

loving how they view this place as full of imbeciles!!! Irony!!!!

No they mean you are an imbecile.

So which bunkerite is popgoestheweasel on there?

I know it isn't me, and I know who else it isn't.
