If the Chronny has reported that two BFC directors made emergency loans to the Club to avoid administration then yes I have a problem with that statement which is to the very best of my knowledge not true. I know the names of the two "investors" who advanced monies against their backthebees pledges and they are not both BFC directors.

 

[ChinaBee]

Does anyone else have a problem with Jim getting the facts so wrong with regards to the £200k loan that saved us from adminstration

YES

 

[Banana]

they are not both BFC directors.

does this mean that one of them is?

 

[Brickie Chap]

...was the money re-directed from the Back the Bees campaign...

 

[Gee Bee]

does this mean that one of them is?

Thats what I was going to ask.
He may of couse have meant "both not".

 

[abee]

...was the money re-directed from the Back the Bees campaign...

Yes as a short term loan

 

[abee]

Thats what I was going to ask.
He may of couse have meant "both not".

I meant what I said...... rofl

This is what Brian Burgess said. I confirm that hey are both Bees United members, they had both pledged to the backthebees campaign and they are not both BFC directors.

Yesterday we also arranged for two of our Bees United members, whose pledges are included in the seven hundred thousand to put in an emergency loan into this club so that it could pay its wages and avoid going into administration today.

 

[Mr Tree]

When have I ever "boasted" about having 'close contacts' at the club?
Do you make this sh*t up Brickie just to get a wind up going, because with every post you make more and more of a pillock of yourself.
I'm writing this against my better judgement because you're probably getting off on the fact that a hated journalist has responded to a post from little old you.
Why don't you go and find yourself a hobby instead of wasting everyone's time with potentially defamatory crap on here.

funnily enough, Streetboy never has these problems on here :scratch:

If it was you then THANKS

 

[Inappropriate Smilies Bee]

i love the chronicle, it's the only paper that gives us a decent amount of coverage.

 

[Streetboy]

Firstly, apologies, I will take the flak for the mistake about who put the vital cash injection in. Admittedly, I missed half of Brian's speech before the game as I had been told it was being given at half-time. As sports editor, I should have checked it more thoroughly.
Secondly, Mark - the administration story was on the back page was it not? Anyone who was at the game knew about it, so the newer story, ie Lloydy's interview, took headline slot, although I'm sure there are more words on the administration story. I tried to get a newer angle on that, but getting hold of people has unsurprisingly proved difficult.
There is also the fact that we have agreed not to put the boot in on certain people for a certain period of time for the good of what Bees United is trying to do. Sorry to be cryptic, I hate doing it, but all will become clear in the fullness of time.
Finally, Mark and Brickie, I can accept criticism, but why the obvious hatred of anything we do? Because you have fallen out with Jim in the past?
I have now had an official warning from my fiancee that the GPG is bad for my health!

That what it appears to me :shrug:

 

[Brickie Chap]

Oh please, dont flatter yourselves rofl


You are the local rag and in possibly the biggest story ever surrounding our club, you got the facts wrong

FFS it wasnt even a difficult story to get right rofl

The Directors of this club have f**ked things up, yet you portrayed them as being saviours. Instead of leading that without the fans once again digging deep, the club would have been ruined last week.

Maybe its just me that likes these things to be correct. The press clearly dont :dj:

 

[Brickie Chap]

Sorry, so you personally penned those words in this weeks Cronny You personally decided to print that two directors saved the club


You'll forgive me if I dont believe you rofl

 

[JimLevack]

Let's just get something straight here for the benefit of the majority of right-minded people who use this board.
1. I have never met Brickie Chap, have never had any issue with him in the past and have no wish to meet him in the future. His posts tell you all you need to know about him.
2. He has admitted to me that he doesn't have time for journalists for reasons he wouldn't go into in the past, but declined to go into details about that...I seem to be bearing the brunt for his prejudices.
3. The information that I was given was that two directors had put up the money...I now know that to be incorrect and accept it was one.
Although that is surely a detail in the overall story, it is one which Brickie gleefully pounces on to reinforce his rather pathetic assault on "the local rag".
I suggest he needs to take a lie down on a shrink's couch to get to the bottom of what is really bugging him.
If it's just me then I am rather flattered - I've never had a verbal stalker before and they say you've never really made it until you get one.
Simple solution Brickie - if you don't like the Chronicle don't read it.

 

[Brickie Chap]

Jim - lets cut the crap :dj:

Who told you two directors had put the cash up? Why didnt you check the story bearing in mind the same directors are getting so much blame for the clubs current plight?

Do I really need to go on...


PS your comments 2. He has admitted to me that he doesn't have time for journalists for reasons he wouldn't go into in the past, but declined to go into details about that...I seem to be bearing the brunt for his prejudices were put via a PM...you do understand what a PM means dont you rofl After all you boasted that I would put the details in the public domain, yee of little faith rofl

Oh dear...untrustworthy, you really are


PPS dont flatter yourself, peddlers of lies need to be exposed, whether thats within GP or elsewhere

 

[Brickie Chap]

Is it really too much to expect the club programme or the local rag to print the truth

FFS Jim Levack is as helpful as Larry

 

[Streetboy]

Sorry, so you personally penned those words in this weeks Cronny You personally decided to print that two directors saved the club


You'll forgive me if I dont believe you rofl

You can believe me or not Brickie, but it's the truth. I got to my place in the Brook Road the same time I normally do, just before kick-off, as In my view, that's when my job starts, and before then I like a few drinks with my mates like I always have. I was told Brian's speech was at half-time, otherwise I would have arrived earlier.
And believe me, I am not flattering myself. Anyone who knows me will tell you that's not what I'm about, and I think I've seen enough slagging off of the paper I work for on here to realise that people don't hang on it's every word. But it does p*ss me off sometimes that we never get credit where it's due, but the slagging comes in torrents at any prompting.
I admit a mistake was made in where the cash came from, and although not mine initially, I repeated it without checking and therefore accept equal culpability, and am happy to make a correction.
I only ask if you have some sort of vendetta as most people seem to have accepted it was an honest mistake based on wrong information given to Jim, for which an apology has been made. Mark has had his usual sly dig, but you have gone off the scale of vitriol...

 

[JimLevack]

Brickie Chap - You really are a very sad and bitter little man.
I think most people who use the GPG can see for themselves what motivates you.
You keep using this word "boasts" all the time - again, that says more about your inedequacies than it does mine.
Try channelling your twisted posts into something more worthwhile mate.
This is the last post - I haven't got the time to fuel your petty vendettas driven by some ulterior motive that only a specialist could get to the root of.

 

[Brickie Chap]

Ladies, your phones must have been red hot tonight rofl


Who gave Jim the story, it was Jim's story wasnt it Streetboy seems to have some decency, fair play to that As for Jim, well, we expect no better :dj:

Jim, you dont appear to have any recall of your request to keep our PM's P&C, I suggest that sums up exactly what type of 'reporter' you are


Anyway, can we expect the Cronny to print the correct verison, lets say, same coverage as this weeks invention, next week

 

[abee]

If it was you then THANKS

It wasn't. I was asked and refused.

Bees United needed to raise 300k ideally and they approached several of the backthebees investors to see if individuals were prepared to advance monies to save the club from going into administration. I declined as I believed that this was a problem for the CEO and BFC board of directors. This was not what I signed up to and I am sick to death of the way the club has been and is being run, the lies, the prevarications, the incompetences of the CEO and the mindnumbing inaction of the board of directors. In the event two of the backthebees investors came up trumps and hats off to them as they saved the day whereas I believed that it was time to get some feet to the fire.

I have not read the Chronicle this week but I take it that it is presented that two of the BFC directors responsible for the mess in the first place came galloping to the rescue. As I posted yesterday that report is not and never was true and it has now been acknowledged as being incorrect. That does not however to my mind excuse how the Chronny got this one so wrong and of course the word is now out that the directors did their duty so what's the problem. I am very disappointed.

 

[Hamburger Hill]

Brickie Chap - You really are a very sad and bitter little man.

That has got to be the funniest ever post on the GPG rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl

Pls pass on my regards to Mr Levack Senior

Blimey abee you're "very disappointed"...where's all the :mad1: :mad1: :mad1: :mad1:

Are you keeping your powder dry for the real villians of the piece???

 

[Bee H]

Although that is surely a detail in the overall story,

So if you get a story "sort of right" that's okay then is it ? :scratch:

 

[Bee H]

There is also the fact that we have agreed not to put the boot in on certain people for a certain period of time for the good of what Bees United is trying to do. Sorry to be cryptic, I hate doing it, but all will become clear in the fullness of time.

Okay for "not putting the boot in" in order to assist BU's negotiations but there is no excuse for portraying you know who as a super hero as the Chronicle did last week, no excuse whatsoever !

 

[Brickie Chap]

The hardest thing is saying sorry, aint it Jimmy boy

You'll all start getting nasty PM's from Jimmy and his old man is going to go :mad2: when he reads this

Dont you know, the Levacks are always in the right

 

[Mr Tree]

That does not however to my mind excuse how the Chronny got this one so wrong and of course the word is now out that the directors did their duty so what's the problem. I am very disappointed.

this is the crux of the matter Jim - whatever personal problems there are between you and other members of the board, this message came across, irresponsibly so, and needs correcting...

Dont hold your breath, Jimmy hasnt even admitted its his story. His boss, I'm assuming thats Streetboys role , has taken ownership as Sports Editor though

Jimmy has all the makings of the next great BFC Director :dj:

 

[Banshee Mildew]

don't you dare post a giraffe

oh yes - it comes across quite clearly that Jim doesn't seem to think there's a problem, and you're just being mean to him

sounds alarmingly like Larry really

 

[Brickie Chap]

Not suitable for this thread. This is too serious

Are you keeping your powder dry for the real villians of the piece???

Well I've had an email from Mr Jim Levack telling me what he thinks of me for posting that I was "disappointed" and I'm no better than Bee H or Brickie Chap. I was ****ing incandescent at what I regarded as sloppy reporting by the Chronny and to see a thread picking up on that and titled "Two BFC directors (have effectively saved the Club) by injecting £200k" brought my breakfast up. He had from last Saturday to the noon Wednesday deadline to get it right for God's sake

If you look at the time of my post it was from Gare du Nord lounge where I was catching the first Eurostar back to London and I put what I believed to be a considered response in reply to a question.

That was not good enough for Mr Levack and I walked in to check my business emails and found his very long love letter waiting for me.

I have told him and Tim Street that the Chronny can take a flying **** as far as I'm concerned.

 

[Brickie Chap]

He only had to 'tell the truth and shame the devil' :dj:

 

[abee]

He only had to 'tell the truth and shame the devil' :dj:

Do you think that there is any chance that Joe Bourke's answer on the Q&A will get any mention in the Chronny next week. What did Joe tell us......."Probably more monies needed at the end of the quarter".....(to avoid another flirt with administration.....I posted earlier that they actually needed £300k last week but could only drum up £200k to keep the wolf from the door so no surprises for my three regular readers then..... rofl )

Next weeks Chronny headlines;-

"BFC directors ready once again to step in at the end of this quarter to save club from further threat of administration".

I'm starting to understand Noades problems with Jim Levack now if he was dealing with Noades in the same manner that he is trying to deal with me.

 

[Bee H]

Little Jimmy hasn't got the balls to take on Noades, never has done and never will do - Noades shouts, little Jimmy hides !

 

[Brickie Chap]

Jimmy's dad

You need to defend the family name on here

 

[Brickie Chap]

Do you think young Jimmy reversed the charges on the call to Daddy

 

[Brickie Chap]

'dad, dad, wake up'

'hello son, whats up'

'that nasty BC has been picking on me again dad'

'YOU WHAT'

'Yeah, and his mates, Bee H and abee have put the boot in as well'

'right, let me shake off this bed spread and get online'

 

[Bee H]

:scratch: What's happened to the posts from the holidaying Baffled ? :scratch:

How embarrasing for little Jimmy to have his dad still fighting his battles for him even now ! lol

C'mon :banana:, put Baffled's post back on here

 

[Les Beeavinu]

I dunno, but I always think it's a good idea, PR-wise, to keep on-side with the press. :shrug:

Tim Street seems to have earned respect and has stated that the article was wrong so top man for that

Little Jimmy however, seems unable to admit to errors - never has done !

 

[Edmundo]

I hope that this error is going to get a prominent correction next week - as it is more than a mere detail, as Jim alleges. It makes the villains of the piece look like heroes, which they are not.
