| Nar then MM, Given the private text rants I've sent you about castor n pollux over the last 2-3 yrs, you can at least back me up when folks accuse me of sour grapes cos he's left fev!
I'm bloody glad both are out of post office road. Looks like the cukoos have found a new next.
be careful people. VERY careful....

Well... I agree 100%. Id laugh about it but remember that we 'let em in'!
We had good craic at fev. Club on the up. Put the 2010 disappointment behind us. Did well on the pitch. Made a prrofit with a genuine feelgood factor about the place. You could feel the optimism.
Then castor n pollux got involved and slowly but surely all the positivity eroded. Ridiculous business practice. Outrageous grandiose press statemrnts. Comedic comments at the club and on social media.... all combined to have a serious negative impact of the club.
feisal tweeted about fax last night.
He knows fax will encourage funding streams. .... like we did.
Gone from fev now. I sincerely and reservedly hope you send him and his loathsome sidekick packing.

I don't really do Twitter. What did he actually say?
As a matter of interest, in the time he was at Fev what did you actually get from him in hard cash?

Its not even rocket science. The guy clearly does not support one club and people rarely just give cash away for no good reason so their has to be an ulterior motive that is if there is any cash in the first place. He has been at 4 clubs now with 2 of those saying that he owes them money yet one of the clubs that he has already been at is contemplating having him back. Pure madness.
On a slightly different note I would not be in the least bit surprised if this lead to a joint bid for the Shay............

| GFB. At no point has it been mentioned that Fax are thinking of having him back, just that he has been sniffing around.
Apart from the obvious risks, getting involved with him again would, quite rightly, make us the laughing stock of Rugby League.

| I just had a quick look back at some of the comments and photo shoots from his days with other clubs such as Fax, Cas and Fev and the common denominator is as Robin says "Outrageous grandiose statements" and these pictures with the clubs shirts on stood with the fans.
You don't know whether to throw up or squirm with embarrassment, it might be I'm just a narrow minded rugby league supporter from Yorkshire.
I don't know the man I don't want to be just having a slag off but it is so completely out of my experience with the game it just doesn't sit right and your always thinking what next.
The warning light trips on and the uneasiness, you could cut it and bag it.

You've really done it with that last line! I will guarantee that it will be quoted on a certain Wendyball forum. lol

The question then is why would the club even bother setting up a meeting with him?

Well I would, just for the comedy value. I'd let him yack on about his vision for Fax and how much (monopoly) money he was going to put in and then, when he'd finished, say "you really are an utter prat, aren't you?"
My other thought was to meet him at the door and demand a cheque for £1,000,000 before we go any further and then add that he doesn't cross the threshold until the cheque has cleared.

Not a snowball's chance in Hell! I would even side with the the worst elements of the FCHT forum against that (and I don't say that lightly)

| Hang on! I thought the council HAD to sell the Shay regardless of who it was given that its a drain on the local taxpayer? But as the "wendyballers" knew/suspected, it was just a convenient argument as it was 'your' owner (who has disappeared off the face of the planet since the Shhhhh debacle) that was trying to buy it for a knock down price.
The same sensible arguments exist against private ownership of the Shay, whoever the individual it is trying to buy it!

He bought 30000 shares at a tenner apiece. Or rather Probiz did.
Over on the Fev forum, they're whinging that he didn't give them £60000 for the stand. Afraid that's a criticism that you can't level at him.

Firstly. sh** for brains, why are you wasting your time on here with the "mentally challenged" (your words) rugby lot? I'm sure you'd feel more at home with the morons on your own site, even you can feel superior to them.
Secondly, if you want to see Tony Abbott so badly try going to Fax games. He attends most of them. He is a familiar face and easily recognised, unlike Titsworth who most people have never seen.

Yeah, but he gave you £300,000.
Which would you rather have ?

Quite right Bob, Bubber and his cronies are just itching for a fight.

You really are a stupid man arnt you. The man lied about giving us 60k, he gave us it with great fan fare on the pitch at a game, took great credit from everyone, but never put the said cash in the account. How can this man ever be taken seriously again its the most disgusting / disgraceful act from any shareholder at any club iv ever heard
