| Wake up and smell the coffee Gingy. Big presentation of a reported rubber cheque a few weeks ago would suggest he hasn't tipped that much in. Possibly tipped plenty over the bar by all accounts.

| Jesus H Christ the 'joint' statement issued by Fev is skin crawlingly creepy.
[iWith immediate effect majority Shareholder Feisal Nahaboo has announced to officials that he will no longer invest in Featherstone Rovers following undisclosed disagreements. However, the club is prepared to say that both men agreed that for the best interests of the fans that Chairman Mark Campbell continues to run the club.
The club can confirm that all Directors had been liaising with Nahaboo all week to keep his interest in the club and all had supported the ambition that saw significant changes in 8 weeks such as:
Change in coaching staff +Player extended contracts +Quality new squad additions +Dual registration +Players coming in on loan +Players going out on loan +Expenses cut by approx 200k +6 wins and an unfortunate draw in the last seconds and similarly a loss from a missed kick in the last seconds. The record could have easily stood at 8 wins. Nahaboo has given 3 years to the club as a sponsor and investor allowing the club critical funds to strengthen the squad that has seen the club win 4 titles consecutively. Nahaboo's funds helped draw in the likes of Sharpe, Mellors, Cording & Etu last year and helped the clubs foundation with an immense Centre of Excellence filled with equipment. For a multi-millionaire to show any interest in Featherstone is rare and fans should thank him for his contribution. Nahaboo has also funded the club in difficult times allowing wages to be paid, he has paid off HMRC debts including PAYE and VAT which the RFL were aware of. He has been a great servant and fans should commend his contribution and we all hope at the club that he will return if we can resolve a disagreement that has clearly upset Nahaboo. We must remember Nahaboo has generously given substantial sums to Castleford, Halifax, Wigan & the RFL. Rugby League has been a beneficiary of his generosity.
Nahaboo said "The fans need to know what the players know. I was 110% behind the region.I believe the resources being made available and the strategy deployed would have got the club into SL. The players and coaching staff believed that. As did most Directors. I've told the club subject to amicable discussions over the next 7 days I will keep door open but believe Mark Campbell is the man to lead Fev. I did my bit, the fans are with him understandably so walking when in love, was the only way. The Championship has become more difficult and fans should be patient."
Mark Campbell said "The club is proud to have had a financial supporter in Feisal. To show his commitment he left Brazil with celebrity friends to travel home to drive 6hours to Cumbria for the Workington game. He was committed to helping the club progress. Big personalities who have built big businesses sometimes don't agree with slow growth and old habits and its normal to have differences but Nahaboo is obviously offended and we respect his wishes and will continue dialogue with him in the next few days. I personally thank him for his support that has helped club reach successes in recent times. I'd also like to thank Craig in his time at fev as we've seen revenues grow across the business year on year and wish him well in the future , and hope to see him down at "the big fellas " in the future and be able to enjoy the games without the pressure of being the CEO which is a thankless job in rugby league."[/i
Have you ever heard as much waffle in your life? The ego of the man knows no bounds. What a pathetic load of nonsense that statement is, it would be funny if it weren't so embarrassing. :-[

| What gets me are these bits:
[iHe has been a great servant and fans should commend his contribution and we all hope at the club that he will return if we can resolve a disagreement that has clearly upset Nahaboo.
Nahaboo: I've told the club subject to amicable discussions over the next 7 days I will keep door open but believe Mark Campbell is the man to lead Fev.
Campbell: He was committed to helping the club progress. Big personalities who have built big businesses sometimes don't agree with slow growth and old habits and its normal to have differences but Nahaboo is obviously offended and we respect his wishes and will continue dialogue with him in the next few days.[/i
So why didn't they wait a week to see if they can resolve their differences? If they do, will there be another statement saying 'Superman is back'? It's just bizarre.

| "Spit his dummy out"..........."Threw his toy's out of the pram"..............Took his ball home because he was losing"!
Any one of these quotes could have saved a lot of time (and ink) just to explain why the egotistical despot walked away AGAIN.
Even in his leaving the fawnicators at Fev are still at it. Nahaboo must have a very, very clean ar5e with all the licking that's still going on.

| Personally I think it's now the duty of all other RL clubs in the country, ney the world, to issue a statement thanking the wonderful Mr Magoo for his contribution to rugby league and the general saving of mankind.
Also, I think you miserable lot who keep calling him should get to your dusty old typewriters and pen a letter begging his forgiveness whilst promising never to call him again. Oh and your letter should include a list of all his achievements and cash spent and should definitely include a mention about his 'celebrity friends'.
Your letter should definitely not include any of the following words or phrases:
Who do you think you are
Good riddance to bad rubbish
Egotistical maniac
Do it now please.

| So Fev had a fans' forum tonight and this is what came out of it:
(Copied from the Fev forum on Totalrl)
[iBrief summary of tonights fans forum and what was said
Some of the reason/reasons for the big fall out is -
Clubs finances werent adding up from Probiz finanacial advisor - MC enquired about this but no info received
Feisal asked Tony lumb (big fellas) and dave downs to step down for mystery investors, MC asked to meet mystery investors, excuses made not to meet them
Faisal refused various meetings with board and wont answer calls, threatening club with winding up orders, etc
Fev considering legal action or taking legal advice
As well as no investors no 60k for stands either but will be finished without the promised money - club in talks with Wakefield Football Club for their home games to be played at Fev as they have no ground but a government grant for a 3G pitch - Wakefield football club approached Fev - talks ongoing for next season (2015/16 season)
There was never any plans for an all out assault on SL and breaking into that top 4 next season - next season is/was always planned as a consolidation season to see how the new league structure works - more faisal BS based on recent twitter ramblings
Club not in major debt and won't be off loading players. No ''marquee'' signings made for next season.
Club under no obligation to buy faisal shares in club - he is stuck with them and who would you buy shares from - probiz (the shares are owned by probiz not faisal as a person) or fev rovers?
The land is fevs and the business buildings behind new stand will go ahead to generate all year round income - MC dream scenario is a few independent small firms working out of the new buildings, which will generate potential new fans and potential sponsors
Current players offered FT and PT contract will be honoured. Players all happy that everything sorted out and the pressure lifted, hopeful fans saw some evidence of that last Sunday - promises fans that they will deliver on the pitch and cement a probable 2nd place finish - Only one player not happy - Kyle Briggs who became disillouisned with the goings on at club and has fallen out of love with club and wants to leave and wishes to stay at Dews, enjoying game once again whilst at Dews and hopeful he can stay
Ken jones is the new new CEO and introduced himself, spoke well and looking to get back to old ways of when we were top dogs - encourages us to use this hashtag below all the time from the staff and players to the fans #teamrovers as thats what we all are
Slightly off topic announcement - The smoking ban at the ground to be reviewed[/i
I think Fev fans should think themselves lucky he's done one. What a slimy, nasty piece of work he is.

| So the big presentation of 60k done on the pitch was just a rubber cheque. The guy is just a slimeball. I still don't think they are out of the woods as there clearly are debts and I would be surprised if the fans have been told everything. If they have then fairplay to MC

| He started off with all the positive spin at Cas, bringing Vowles back for the day at a match, and then it all started going down hill. At the end he was about as popular as a fa*t in an astronaut suit and I was glad to see the back of him!

| Unfortunately the unfilled promises from Feisal which sucked in the club have put Featherstone Rovers back at least 18 months if not 2 years in their development. This is a huge shame
