I’m not allowed to be insulting anymore so patronising is my next layer.

Well done for noticing. (Tongue in cheek emoji goes here.) anyway you can help actually cos you first brought the resignation(s) to notice - was that announced on discord?
Every club went through covid.

Our problems started before that and remain to this day hence the discussion.
Covid period didn’t help, either

I was openly critical of Erik back then as I felt like he’d taken years of awesome stewardship and thrown it all away with the overspend which plunged us into the financial crisis and the three wise men and needing the Plough Lane Bond and Seedrs and everything crap that seems to have followed everything seeming so uncrap prior to that.

Looking back i can’t remember whether he was Club Chair, CEO, DTB Chair or any, all or no combination of those and other things. I know life wasn’t perfect back then, I know a few volunteers who felt they’d been treated shoddily, but up until that 2019 crisis things had felt ok enough at least. After that it’s anyone’s guess what the hell has happened because what we’ve ended up with now is a circus and a circus that lets money disappear when money is the main oxygen that keeps the club alive.
Surrey - the police are somewhat damned if they do and damned if they don’t in these cases - the thing is, if they hadn’t stated that it was a white British male, there’s a strong chance that there would be some Twitter accounts spreading rumours about it being a Somalian who came on a boat last week and there’d be riots in St Austell by tea time, so they kind of had to clarify that in order to minimise that risk I guess.

(to be clear, I can’t name those people, and that’s only because I can’t remember who it was, it was a good while ago, but I do remember it happening, that’s all)

There were people who slagged Erik off non stop for years (not talking about you, Trigg), but I wonder whether some of them might be willing now to say actually things weren’t that bad after all considering what has ensued….

Devon and Cornwall Police confirmed the man, who is a white British national, was arrested at an address in Newton Abbot, Devon,

would they have been so quick to say .... the man, who is of colour and is a Sudanese national, as well as being illegally in the country .... Somehow, I doubt it.
I don’t claim information accuracy here but my recollection is of feeling that Erik messed up with the budget overspend which has been a big part of our continued financial struggles since then. But… I don’t know what state our finances would have been in if we hadn’t spent that ground money on the promotion winning squad - or even if that is actually what happened. But again… all that said and done when Erik raised his hand in the meeting to say he advocated selling out, you do have to wonder whether that would have been the right thing to do at the time.

At the time I was vocally against it - still a fan owned stalwart. Maybe Erik could see the grifters who were ready to take over. Messy, very messy. I wanted better from him at the time, but time changes everything in both directions.
Even then, not sure I can be arsed, Red Kite

Erik always warned that all this stuff needed sorting out so that the right checks and balances were there for when he wasn't.

Can you ask him to come back and sort these people out good and proper?

Anyone know who the board member was that the FSA (distinct distrust of them and anyone who realies on them) wanted to take action against? Enquiring minds wanna know.
Lol that’s great news. I feel better already.
