JR simply didn't have enough cash

[streatham dave]

Sick to death of the lets have a pop at JR comments such as the ego one above on this forum. What has happened has happened move on. Support TB and keep going to games and cheering the teams on. We need to be united and stop having needless digs at others who also love the club RTID.

[RobTheRover]

My sentiments entirely,  Dave. What has gone has gone.

Even though a number of people saw the VSC as fair game over the past 18 months for doing what the Trust was set up to do and ask the questions no need else was prepared to do,  the recriminations have to end and as supporters we need to return to our core purpose.

There will be a team formulated over the next three to seven weeks to carry our standard into a 9 month battle. If we expend half the energy on supporting them that we've all done over the past 18 month then they have every chance of success.

What I find worrying is that Kevin Phelan/Sequentia were part of the backers waiting in the wings apparently on this latest TO.

Seems to me like they failed last year, they went away, got their heads together and came up with another plan to have a local celeb, LT, as the face of the campaign, to get SC in through the back door if you like?

For whatever reason, the backers apparently pulled the rug from under JR and the money wasn't there, which would explain the lack of a business plan and LT tweeting he was misled?

Maybe LT was told that JR was putting the money up, although really it was coming from SC. Maybe it was Phelan who couldn't raise the funds and so pulled the rug out from under JR?

All conjecture of course but it would make sense of the farce.

Can I ask do you know this as fact? Or is it more conjecture but from a different poster?

Fair point

Like I said, a sad, sad day for drfc. This isn't about money or any "fit and proper" tests, this whole reaction from the vsc is about gleefully enjoying paying someone back for excluding them. I find that really childish in the scheme of things.

Your entitled to your opinion based on what you have been told but the opposite is nearer the truth. JR chose to make it personal not S_M. 

After the last 12 months or more I can understand why Martin feels he's entitled to make strong comments. I wouldn't have liked to be threatened in the way he was in a childish act of retribution for something Martin wasn't even responsible for.

What you talking about DBR?I thought Martin was warned about legal action for things he posted about certain people,you and other VSC members prefer to use the term threatened,thats your choice,but in a childish act of retribution for something was not responsible for?Is there more to this that the rest do not know about?

There's a lot more that people don't know about. However what DBR states is true, I wasn't threatened for something I wrote. I've also said on a few occasions that one of these days the truth will come out.

[GazLaz]

Why hasn't it already come out Martin? SC are long gone surely... or are they?

[PDX_Rover]

Well it's been confirmed from several people that SC/Phelan were behind JR, so go figure... Just trying to join the dots up, in a conjectural way...

[silent majority]

Long gone Gaz? Hmmm.

[Dagenham Rover]

Long gone Gaz? Hmmm.

Says quite a lot that SM
 in fact helluva lot

[graemedrfc]

So it was John Ryan issuing the legal threats?

[PDX_Rover]

I doubt Sequentia's solicitor is based in Wakefield.... Ahem.

It's why I am so God almighty grateful to the FL. And I never, ever thought I'd hear myself ever say that again! They may have saved our bacon for once.
