We’ve got our own Massimo who turned up and made a mess of Leeds.
Everyone at the club knows it was Abdullatif who pulled the plug on the JCH deal, I was told this by an employee of Peterborough as well.
11th December I said the owners son had stopped hotel accommodation for the Crewe away game and our management was upset……….prior to this I said we had no one to take training because Mangs and Whelan had walked out, Whelan did first.
Abdullatif offered Robinson, Monk and promised Mangs the job, the latter is why Whelan downed tools, false promises.
Finely comes out publicly to the media and says the manager needs help with his own team.
Matt Taylor had to beg and move heaven and earth to get Jamie McAllister in, he’s cheap as well!
No Head of Media at the club, cut back on this wage. We’ve interviewed people from Div1 and 2 clubs, messed one individual around, we are talking proper minimum wage stuff and he said no!
Businesses asked to move to 90 days credit account terms, I know this for a fact. I knew this when I left the forum, I am glad Gasehead81 has exposed this now on the Chris Martin thread.
Chris Martin protected himself last night, he has a wife and young family. Let’s not blame Gorringe again, he’s now a glorified PA.
Matt Taylor said he thought the deal was done, he’d have asked about Martin on Monday when preparing his side. Let’s not kid ourselves, he knows what is going on. That was a professional subtle dig last night, remember how DC did it, same situation.
Everything at the club, a pot of Nescafé or a new door handle has to be signed off by this new regime.
Bridgwater Gas will come on and say I’m making it up again, Radio Bristol and Dan Hargreaves also know what is going on.
I hope the media start to do their jobs properly, when statements are made about us going to the Premiership, simple questions need to be asked like, how? targets years?
…………….”we may spend a little this window” on the way off his Premiership statement, alarm bells then. 24th Jan, nothing, manager publicly admitting he doesn’t know what is going on, we’ve got our own Cellino running the club now. (4 players left us as well this window)
BTW, banter/abuse about me posting again, don’t waste your energy, I just want Abdullatif Al Saeed to feel some pressure and to start running this club properly. Conteh was just about to sign, again his Cellino style has let in Ipswich, Blackpool and Peterborough now, we had the deal done.

Worked at the house of a manager who was reported to have been interviewed for the job after Barton’s sacking. Said he didn’t even apply which shows how much the post actually know but the worrying part was that he had no interest in the job as he said the whole back room was an absolute farce. Arguments between wael and the new owners because they wanted different things and no one really knew who had the final say

If true this is Worrying. My last call to the club asking to speak to somebody in office, I was told nobody there and they’d get someone to call me back. People either off that day or there is actually nobody there to help!? Still no call back?

Looks as if a Wael consortium to buy back the club he just sold has to he put in place.

It's extremely alarming.
I'll take a lot of the above with a pinch of salt, not because I don't believe you - and I truly believe at the very least you believe it - but I don't know these people and so it's all rumours. That doesn't mean for a minute I can't see everything you say being 100% true, I just try not to get sucked in unless I'm the person being told the news directly and, even then, it would have to be someone I know would know, and not just have heard a rumour themselves.
Like I say though, I can certainly imagine everything you've posted being 100% on the money. It's extremely alarming.
My worry is that - even ignoring your post - there are things that don't sit right that don't even require rumours - we can see them with our own eyes and hear them with our own ears!
- New stadium plug pulled almost immediately (maybe all fair enough, but most agreed we needed a new stadium with new non-matchday income opportunities to progress)
- Redo of Mem; all hot air at the moment - no verbal or architectural plans/mock-ups
- JCH fiasco (not a conspiracy theorist, but surely something went on there - not buying we missed it by 15 seconds [or whatever it was] having been reminded by Posh about the extension!!)
- Players heading back to clubs this window and yet no-one in the building yet; including officially tying up Martin that should have surely been sorted pre-January so on the 1st it was announced!
- The appointment of Taylor; complete fiasco - took an eternity and only ended up with a manager who became available a few days before; clearly no plan
- Have they signed anyone yet? I see people mentioning the fee paid for Taylor, but was that when Wael was still in charge? (genuine question, I can't remember)
- No real info on these guys; possible explanations for this (private culture etc.) but still a bit odd and unusual
- No skills or expertise in the footballing world, no choice but to muddle through and make it up as they go
- No improvement on infrastructure whatsoever since they took the reigns; surely we all agree a club at this level needs some sort of viable business plan to have any chance of success (or continued operations...)
All in all, a complete f**king mess.
Worried doesn't come close.

Pulled the plug after hearing those wage demands.
I’m in full agreement with the guy.

We are told the son Abdullatif was a board member at the Kuwaiti football club Kasma Sporting Club, but when you look at the list of Directors (see below) he is nowhere to be found. I thought maybe he could be on the list for the clubs Governing Council or Club Committee, but again isn't amongst the names. What did he do at Kasma SC I wonder, if anything? Kasma SC Directors - kazmasc.com/%d9%85%d8%ac%d9%84%d8%b3-%d8%a7%d9%84%d8%a5%d8%af%d8%a7%d8%b1%d8%a9-2/ |

Surely all to do with money? He's probably looked at the cost of installing a proper recruitment network and thought can't the management team not just do it?
And I agree with Gashead81 on the other thread about low balling Grimsby with a bid for Conteh rather than just triggering the release clause, which now seems to have alerted other clubs to his availability
Shambles

Sadly all true.
This fella is running us into the ground at a very quick rate.
Someone needs to get hold of the bloke and give him a good shake. Anyone who spends time around the club can see the massive strain staff are under and why the morale is so low.

I thought the days of Liam Scales were over now playing in CL against likes of Madrid. Oxford coming in now for Conteh apparently, he’s so rated in the game, Taylor must be on his knees, he was going to start last night! |

Losing to Exeter last night further reminds me that as time goes on the more I see fan ownership as the perfect fit for our club. Hate all this reliance on random moneymen.

This is a depressing read.
... and I wasn't exactly in the best mood before given our January results (LLLLDL) :-|
Could definitely do with a few signings to get everyone excited again.. otherwise our attendances are going to drop right off..!
