Tony Abbott inviting FC and RLFC fans to an open evening next Thursday.

It will end in chaos. I'll give it 10 minutes before it's abandoned judging by the retarded responses he's had so far on twitter. Classy people these FC fans.

Dont waste your time and effort Tony. These morons have no respect for you or Fax. Just buy the Stadium and change the name to Reactiv Stadium ( or The Rugby League Stadium) and let the idiots cry even more. Shame Tony is treated by these morons in such a disgraceful manner. Cant see next week being much different.

I will be there.

We need to be there in numbers but I hope that there is some security people there as I think it could get nasty and there could be violence.
I think it is a good idea let Tony tell the truth from his side and the only way that will come out is an open meeting.
I will try get down.

No matter what he says he will not be able to placate them. Fair play to him and fortune favours the brave but I can only see negatives in doing this.

Wonder if any of the FC BOD will be there, with false wigs and Moustaches on ?

How else can he get HIS and Reactiv's position over to us and the Town fans?
Provided there is control over proceedings it will be good, let us all hear it from the horses mouth as they say.
Otherwise people will just say whatever they want and there is no counter argument.
I wonder what Town's big announcement is next week?
How funny would that be if they have come onboard with buying the Shay in some kind of joint venture? What would the Town fans think then, especially Gavin Butler??? Would they still want the Council to run it???
I doubt it.

They've said cock all so far. It's obvious they don't agree with what he's doing. His other mistake apparently was not consulting with the FC club at an early stage. We don't know the background though. We don't know if he did originally try to engage with them and they told him to eff off or whether he tried to bypass them altogether. Yes - they are only tenants like the rugby club but it may have been smoother if he'd have maybe tried to get them on board sooner.

Either way it's messier than one of my creme brûlée's

This is exactly why Tony needs to bring all this out into the open, methinks some folks are in for a big surprise!

I would laugh my pert little ass off



I imagine though that they'd be tipping the wink to Gavin - so as not to make him look like a complete chump.

I think he's still in Spain although I haven't seen him posting on FB today, maybe sticky Vicky sat on him...

A bold move by Tony. I for one have been holding judgement until I hear what he has to say.

But, will he be allowed to have his say?

Here's hoping Tony can rise above the crap

Perhaps realistic shay could "out" himself instead of hiding behind his key board.

No one from shaymen.net will turn up, keyboard warriors the lot of them.

If they dont turn up though they will show themselves up given some of the posts on there.

None of us really know the full facts around TA’s proposal to the council, his full plans for the ground and how this will impact or benefit the 2 clubs, despite people’s protests on both forums. This is an opportunity to listen (hopefully) to what the proposals are, it may help people be more objective, try to find answers to some of the questions that have been raised, get some re-assurance over how the future of both clubs would be protected and possibly enhanced. It might change the minds of people on either side of the argument..

But I find it very strange that some people have been making a lot of noise on this issue and now these same people say “let’s boycott the meeting!” Here’s a chance to hear from the horse’s mouth what he proposes, put questions and concerns to him, hopefully get to know the facts and not rely on hearsay. Instead of spouting off on a forum, take your chance, listen to what he says and ask your questions. If you don’t think your questions are answered and feel the same afterwards then that’s fair enough.

The only reason some folk will "boycott" the meeting will be due to the meeting being past their bed times.

I love it, well done.

Seriously tho' lets retain our dignity if the Town Fans kick off.

I don't see how name calling or goading each others' supporters ( I know plenty of folks who support both the footy & RL clubs BTW ) into boycotting or past their bedtimes or worrying about violence or it kicking off is going to improve any impending situation quite frankly & makes one group look as antagonising as the other, I'd say for those who are interested in what the man has to say, go along & attend the meeting/forum and listen for yourselves.
Anyone who gets loud or rude or not prepared to listen needs to be ejected so that the others can absorb what is being relayed to the public, FOR THE FIRST TIME. Until now, most of it is speculation as i see things.
No i won't be there, for one, i'm on 2-10 shift and for another reason, i'm really not that bothered at this moment in time until there are further developments.

I'm glad to see that TA/Reactive still see it as a goer: www.reactivmedia.co.uk/news-blog ... aa-session

What would be the point in boycotting a meeting which seeks to give information ?

Who would know you're boycotting it ?

Or care ?

Griff even surely an accountant can recognise a joke, on second thoughts, perhaps not.

Hey - these soccer supporters are thick. Who knows what they'll do ?

Spot on, well said

And that's what we have all said.
