It's not an easy environment to prosper in. I'm not saying he's the perfect custodian but he can handle himself. Yup. Must've been tough for Dave and yourself.

Fucking ridiculous this is even a thing but Ive got a strong feeling this'll go to court. Country consumed by bitterness sadly Really can't see anyone having grounds to take us to court, however if Liewell keeps opening his uneducated gub it could lead to King taking him to court !

They'll try and build it up as such and gather momentum, best thing we can do is dismiss it and don't give it credibility by engaging any further.

It is disappointing that they have attempted to influence the footballing authorities to alter its historic football honours by calling on administrators and lawyers to achieve off the pitch what its teams failed to do on the pitch. Brilliant!!They will be spewing..why..because it's true. I wonder if they will be contacting you tube to alter the footage of them losing and crying to their superior rivals.

Virtuoso 27,180 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Decent statement if it wasn't for the fact he previously claimed: Quote With regard to EBTs, I was on the board so I have to take some responsibility. ‘And I follow the logic of the argument that if we lose the tax case then we probably gained some competitive advantage. ‘I believe that, on behalf of myself and most of the board members who were with me and probably agree with me, that we should apologise for that. ‘I know that the Murray Group might not say that, because it might be tantamount to admitting it.

Ryju84 3,170 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 People were complaining that we werent making a statement. But sometimes it feels like King has to write one and run it past his lawyers before going public. It is well written and gets a good point across. And cannot be misconstrued or used against him. Whereas if it was one of us we would have went public straight away and said "the 9 in a row stands. So fuck off!" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
