What it is

everything I post on this subject can be backed up - most often from the official site, accounts, or direct quotes from the various parties concerned. What I post on here may or may not be true - but there is nothing that is not in the public domain - on the financial side typically from the company's published accounts or from Mr Doncaster's public utterings. What I'm not going to do is post something which is my opinion but which I can't back up - whatever its nature - because it might be wrong. As far as I'm aware Ben and other webmasters got in trouble with the club for permitting posts which whilst they weren't libellous also may or not (probably not) have been true.

Personally I don't think the reason for the non-sale is that Delia can't bear to be not running the club - to me their public utterances and the way they behave flies in the face of that - how can any of us know. What i do know, because someone pointed it out on here, is that there is a financial reason why they might not want to give up control in the way Mr Cullum wanted. How can we tell if that applies?
