Hi i hope my tweets were useful.
I have had issues with the board since our first relegation, the finances, the managers the football. To get to finally get things out in the open , to meet each member of the board and talk one to one was a very therapeutic experience.
I feel able and ready to move on, not to forget but to want my club and my connection to it back. I thought Chris Jelf and Brian came across very well, DC annoyed me a bit in how he disusses and blames JW but he is passionate and dedicated.
I left feeling very positive about the stadium and deapite some of the crap spouted by some of the board at least they fronted us out and its a start.

The Tweets were excellent Dins - thank you.
It was good to hear that some of the other Directors are slowly putting their heads above the parapet.

Good work dins, agree it was a rite of passage moment.
I hope Jelf and BSS come more to the fore as felt they were more the real deal along with Darrel. Hopefully Ken won't be hosting again and nick and boycie are just dead wood. Nick said as much and I must admit to having a smidge of sympathy with his situation but being unable to walk away despite trying. But his defensive attitude took all that away! Couldn't make tony out but will give him benefit of the doubt on basis of his tough stadium talk
Most of all I hope it is the start of us fans being shown some respect. No more ignoring letters / emails please. That's just lazy

No worries you are my forum family :-)
Ps Ken Masters !!!!!!!!!! What a ......
Other then that they all cane across well, Higgs has a short fuse but then so do i. The short of it was uwe will happen, then we can break even.
We went down because the board trusted JW too much. Lennie Lawrence gave out contracts that left us in financial trouble for years and apparantly nobody wanted to be chairman despite Nick offering to resign.

If you came away from it feeling better then it must have been a positive evening. Was there any indication when the UWE will actually start?

Wbat a ringing edorsement by the board of the man with a PR and Media company He's clearly a better communicator than you as your last para makes absolutely no sense to me! I don't get why LL is getting so much criticism tonight, he helped take us to Cardiff & Wembley along with promotion and the eventual sale of Lambert.

Maybe the sarcasm didnt come through

The board said lenny left us in a financial mess. I think he was referring to contracts. Sprouts post is what Nick said. Nick stated we need a good pr man, someome said Brians a pr man and nick said we need a better one.

The wages we offered are what gave us the bad rep. I think it was incredibly unsustainable. Not that 2 relegations is but, blizzard for example was on a fortune.

Nick seemed quite bitter and angry tonight, although I do sympathise with him on some things. Watolas answer on relegation typified the arrogant reaction that's alienated fans. Chris Jelf came across very well.
Impressed and confident with DC. The question about how long he would get was unfair, that isn't a simple answer.
It does come across like he is trying to blame JW but from what has come out that is appropriate.

Dins _ I honestly don't know what makes you tick if you thought that was very positive. The only very positive was that there was actually a meeting and we could see the whites of their eyes. there were many disapponiting aspects which I will happily write about tomorrow.
One thing for everyone to consider - there was no question on the club's Internal Review !! I wonder what everyone thinks about this - do you think there was ever one conducted ?
Best Wishes

Best Wishes I suppose it depends upon what form you expect the review to take. If it was someone making an indepth and detailed report on every aspect of the club then I suspect that it wasn't if it was the board meeting very regularly looking at each aspect of the club with straight talking about mistakes etc then those meetings took place and Nick offered to stand down. No- one however wanted to be chairman
