Pools would have folded within a matter of months if they'd got their hands on the club.

Even the name they chose for their made up company showed what absolute feckin chancers they were.

There were some very good threads at the time of this takeover and as much as we highlighted the dodgyness there were still some that critisised this place.

Fair play to Ken for pulling he plug.

I still have nightmares seeing Green smiling like a Cheshire Cat in background to Harris' interview.

Just for my sanity. Why exactly do certain people mock the trust?

Are they mental?

Who brought them to pools again?

It's their hobby, that's all. You don't ask why some people like stamp collecting, do you? It's just that, once you start you can't stop. Apparently

I am guessing here, but was it that Gus Brown fella, so loved by a few deluded pools fans?
