It's sick.

And this morning BBC Breakfast sport ran with some tennis player wearing a blonde wig as a joke, when those 60 seconds could have aired our plight and that Brent is waiting in the wings.

I have emailed bbcbreakfast@bbc.co.uk calling on them to give us some coverage. Imagine the publicity an outdoor unit could give... if only! I expect tomorrow will be some other frivolous sports piece as we teeter ever closer to oblivion.

Several times over, I suspect. It is also an important point as, irrespective of those locally to blame, football should never have allowed this to happen.

As billy bragg almost used to put on the cover of his albums:

'capitalism is killing football'.

Rather that coming on here abusing the guy that's currently in charge of the club, why not get in touch and try to find out where the problem lies. Spluttering indignation from some of the clique doesn't really help the situation.



Garry, as one of the members of the contingency committee, I can absolutely assure you that you are wrong in what you say.

The problem is not that the group only has a limited understanding.

It is that we understand the issue all too well.

However, it is in Guilfoyle's interests to attempt to deflect blame from himself, in the event of the BIL bid not completing.

This is but one example of that plan in action.


Fair enough Peter. I did say 'some' when referring to the members, and I wasn't thinking of you, more of Ian Newell who seems to throw his toys out when someone doesn't agree with him or he doesn't get what he wants - and then resorts to abuse.
The Trust does not speak for me.

Don't forget the numerous waste of time pieces they've delivered on transfer sagas, various unimportant injuries and the 'crisis' at Arsenal. It's sad to me that even the BBC appear to be part of the media conglomerate buggering up the national game. We expect it from Sky because they started it but the BBC should definitely be taking a more responsible approach to and wider view of the national game than merely putting all their effort into promoting 'the product' formerly known as football.

“I undertook to talk with the rescue group on Saturday but some of the correspondence with it suggests they don’t understand the situation.

Interesting, but does he understand what a total fu(k up he's made of this entire process and the damage it has done? BG might be the among the lesser of all the evils that have befallen us but I'd love to know what enables him to remain so aloof and confident in himself. We should never have got to this stage and he needs to 'understand' that he's one of the reasons why the club might cease to be come Saturday.

Guilfoyle told Tony C at the Wimbledon game that it would be his last Argyle game.

Wonder now which way we should take that?

depends on the precise wording. If he "believes" and has "been assured" that it was his last game and was "working towards a scenario" that would have seen it be his last game.......then I guess we'll see him Saturday anyway.

:shock: You were referring to me Garry, well, I'd never have guessed.

Problem is, just because a person wears a suite and tie, doesn't mean I have to kowtow to the insult which he threw.

All of the CC are aware of what is needed, and once again, this man attempts to patronise those that are involved.

He's the man that has cocked up, he's the man that has not completed a meaningful due dilligence, he's the man that has allowed the passing of milestone payment after milestone payment, he's the man that has allowed deadlines to be delayed in an attempt to make his 'best bid for the creditors' nonsense to come true.

Abuse? Hell yes? Plenty of it? With lots more to come.

You deal with the loss of this club how you want, I'll deal with it the way I want, how's that for democracy.

Don't worry though, I'm sure there's plenty of time to secure your parking space these days, let's face it, when it was far more attractive, you couldn't do enough, and yet now???

As I said 'nasty'.

Plenty of Greens have come to the fore during this time, and some of whom I'd never have guessed, others have actively hidden, you're one of them, and that really didn't surprise me, as I say, not that attractive now, is it?

Is James Brent the real deal or has he been leading people up the garden path like previous people have done to the major players here on PASOTI

Can we as fans really trust this guy I think there are questions needed to be asked about him

By the way I am no pro BIL no anti this or that just feel uneasy that the Fans Trust and key players here on PASOTI trust him very quickly in the end his a business man just like Heaney and Risdale

He is a business man yes, but I don't think there's much evidence out there that he is "a business man just like Heaney and Ridsdale".
