asked if were not for Gt being dismissed...would there bea challenge.

Rod said that was the past and needed to look forward.

Rod again said it needed to be about looking forward.

Alot of which was the write off of the Old Stands that previous boards didn't do because of our debt and they wanted to keep the money on field as much as they could
Completely wrong. The stands were on the books as an asset. The debt was on the books as a liability. The stands asset value was written down to zero in 2002 causing a book loss of 2.3 million for the year.

The debt issue is totally different.

For Gods sake you have a right to your views but please, the basic facts would be a start :roll: :roll:


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

This is not quite correct RW&BB. The club actually owed $3.7M to banks, financial institutions, and trade creditors. It has nothing to with the stands. We did write off the stands one year creating an enormous loss on the books. This is quite separate to actual funds we owe to extenernal parties. We have traded profitably to reduce money we owe to others.

Having said that I am not defending or slamming the current board, just correcting a misunderstanding of the facts.
