Accounts when reported are from previous years the COVID loan will probably show on this year's accounts

| Quote ="MOPSEY LIVES ON"this is correct BUT the trustees of 1873 are, yes you guessed it jm and mc. This apparently was done to stop anyone doing what manny did to the club, however when and if the new owner buys the club as trustees they can charge a rent for which they are asking 200 grand a year to use the stand, add to that 200 grand a year repayment to the council, the directors loans which they are realy in no position to take and I'm also led to believe we took a massive covid loan which mc said we didn't. If the new owner pulls this deal then jm and mc are left to pay the bills and as I look at the current situation we're skint.'"
You actually know nothing, you're putting 2 and 2 together to make 5. How about you just wait and see how it plays out instead of the wild speculation and shabby accusations and innuendo?

| With some of the vitriol espoused by some so called 'fans' does the potential buyer know what is in store .
The first time he does anything the falsely righteous disapprove of God help him.

| Quote ="Wildmoggy"Quite right, that's me put in my place by the morality police! Well, a few weeks ago I wondered why we had signed Hewitt for 2 weeks, and you replied with.....he's been signed in order to not play Proctor injured.
After thinking long and hard just how to reply to that, I just didn't bother. So as the seeker of truth and justice on here, could you tell me please which member of the coaching staff told you this? You seem very quick to take the high ground with anyone who 'makes things up.' Maybe i'm just p****d off with everything right now at the club, we can't get the stand finished without the politics that go with it, there's nothing at the club on or off the field without a seeming conspiracy, agenda, some hidden motive by someone, it's all one big mess and seriously depressing. I've been a fan for over 30 years, and yeah we've had to put up with mainly crap, but it never felt as bad as this. It's like the club is just slowly being swallowed up by some great big black hole......

30 years isn't long. Believe me, it's been hugely worse

Hmm. Just putting lies out and saying someone else told you is a pretty poor way of spreading lies.
Everyone who has put out details of Carter's 'evil plan' seem to have a 'reliable source'......but no one takes responsibility when proved to be untrue.

Up the Trin'"
Hear hear. This is actually exciting news and possibly the best legacy MC could leave us, having generally been great for our club and running into some huge obstacles over the years such as Wakefield mdc, yorkcourt, covid, reduced SL sky cash and the economic downturn.
He's made mistakes the last 2 years with recruitment. Or at least the club has. This sounds very promising but only on this site could there be a mixture of wild accusations, suspicions and assumptions that try to turn it into something negative. To be honest, THE worst thing about our current situation is the behavior of some of our fans...I use the word loosely, on social media and this forum

To be replaced by someone you like? Or even know? Or just wishing someone else in because he kicked your cat once. I hope he's ready.
I've never actually spoken to Carter apart from at Fans Forum...so no grovelling. But if things are said that are not true I feel honour bound to call them out. I'd do the same for you.

| Quote ="Dunkirk Spirit"Reading this has made me feel sick. I’ve always stood by MC and JM, built this is true regarding the new stand, then I feel that I’ve been made a fool of. I’ve recently bought into the share scheme believing I was helping to finance the future of the club, this apparently underhanded business of the new stand is bordering on skulduggery, and if it turns out to be true, then I really will be re considering my loyalty to this club/management. I’m paying into the commit 6, and at this moment I’m convinced I should end my payments. Any money I pay regarding Trinity, I want it to go to Trinity, not some faceless Stadium Management set up. If the current management does not come clean on this issue in the very near future, then I will not be investing any more monies into the club, Gutted'"
Take no notice of the ball cocks talked by quite a few. We don't know if this is happening at all. It's idle speculation and pretty horrible stuff. Wait till you know the facts before you draw conclusions would be my advice

Yes I obviously jumped the gun on that one. I had my ear bent a little today by someone connected to the club, they assured me most of what I had read was inaccurate and some news was due. Hopefully, we can all look more positively for the eventual outcome.

Couldn't agree more on this statement..
I do fully understand what he did in 2013. Was things financially, though, how he summarised it several times over, in 2013, I very much doubt it. The figures changed significantly over a short period of time.
His manner hasn't endeared him to a lot of fans during his tenure, not just in recent times.
This is not an attack, this is a viewpoint.
I've said before on this board, no person is bigger than the club, and that included chairmen and CEO's
Thank you for saving us, but please move on now, and let us turn to the next chapter.

| I don’t think every decision MC has made has been beneficial to the club but neither do I think he’s the total bad guy he’s being made out to be. I note that JM has also been dragged into things from hero to zero in record time.
I think those making currently unfounded allegations should keep their gobs shut until the real facts come out.

You’re right about Minards. I wondered what he’s done to be dragged into it.
How long before the potential new owners get I wonder.

But this is the crux of it for me.
Carter has a manner that some don't like.
Personally I don't want a glad hander. I want someone who can make tough decisions and take the hit if they go wrong even if those affected don't like it.
He's had to be unpopular to get things done and I'm glad he did. Clearly some have a little vendetta going and waited for the day when the team wasn't doing well to pile on.
Many posting so gleefully now were nowhere to be seen when it was going OK. Its just the way some people are.
Minards on the other hand is someone we shouldn't lose from the club. If I was the new guy, I'd keep some of the people who work at the club at least through transition.

Now i'm no particular fan of Carter & co at all and will be glad to see the back of them but they have done some good things along the way. I am interested though, exactly what have you done to save the club?
