Apology retracted

[JimLevack]

It seems I may have been a little hasty in apologising to Mr Noades and now wish to retract that apology.
When I heard of his annoyance at the £7.5 million debt figure I contacted board member John McGlashan and told him that Mr Noades was issuing a furious denial of the sum stated.
John told me he had never said that figure
in our conversation and, as I have stated in another thread, I began to question my sanity, not to mention my shorthand notes.
I had not at that time read the paper - I don't see one until Saturday.
But John kindly contacted me on Saturday morning after seeing the Chronicle and has said the wording I used - "a projected £7.5 million in debt next year" - is, give or take a couple of hundred grand, spot on.
He had assumed, having read Mr Noades's diatribe, that I had talked about the club being £7.5 million in debt at this current time.
The actual projected figure is also given on the BIAS website, yet they have not been publicly slated by Mr Noades - this week at least.
Again its a question of semantics and interpretation...Mr Noades has an uncanny knack of reading things that simply aren't there and viewing them as always being critical of himself - perhaps he's just too much of a sensitive soul.
I hope that puts the record on this substantive point of his criticism, straight.

Keep up the good work Jim

So now we must face the fact that the idiot Noades can't read. We must also consider that the buffoon may have got stacks of other figures completely wrong.
And this is the idiot that is in charge of our club's destiny.
Will he give you an apology for failing to understand your article, Jim. I doubt it -mannners and Noades are total strangers.

Lets......

just GO for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Careful with your comments, lads. Mark Chapman is watching and does not like any anti-Noades comments.
The latest version of His Master's Voice.

Can anyone tell me on what basis is: "a projected £7.5 million in debt next year" is calculated. This seems a massive difference to previously quoted figures

Baffled - whilst I might agree with you about the white haired monster, I think you are bang out of order in having a go at Mark Chapman.

Would you care to indemnify this website against the consequences of any legal action?

Mark was correct to remove the earlier post. However, he is still Ron's mouthpiece and propoganda peddler.

Sorry, coz I guess I should know but why has this statement been made? How is Mister Chapman Noades' "mouthpiece"?

I tell you what, some of you should go work for the FBI or the CIA. You'll find more conspiracy theory there. Has it not ever occured to you that perhaps Mr Chapman has his own tongue???

Hello...

Mark C is the webmaster for the official site where Ron makes constant digs at us harmless supporters.

For goodness sake, Ron thinks we are thick prats as it is - please don't prove the fool right!

It is unfair to attack Mark just because he edits the official website. IT's his job, it pays a wage and pays rent, food etc. LAY OFF HIM. HE IS A FAN LIKE THE REST OF US.
