I know just as much as anyone else on here. No more no less. Then again I only said I had an idea who. Not going to say who though.

A common theme is that the perpetrators all claim to be friends with David…
Do you really think for one minute if they we’re friends with Hilton that they would own up and say it’s them that’s behind all this ?Whoever it is behind this is only saying that from these accounts to cause instability.
Only 3 groups of people it could be, Section of cod fans up to no good, Bury fans carrying a grudge from when Hilton tried to buy them or it could be something to do with Swann potentially being an arse hole.
I can’t begin to imagine why an actual SUFC would be behind it.
If you spend time on social media looking at historic posts and screenshots, Bury fans were subjected to abuse and threats too.
I will reiterate what I said a few weeks ago, if any of your supporters are being abused or receiving threats on social media, screenshot them and contact one of the Football Liaison Officers at Humberside Police.

I don’t think those accounts are cods tbf, the parody accounts normally target our own and our club .
I think the issue is a lot of the input from our fans is from respected contributors on Twitter and even the more sensible one’s on The Fishy raising genuine concerns rather than baiting or goading Hilton ; I think most are viewing it objectively and asking questions that would be raised if it was us .
I don’t have any idea how it will work out and hope Hilton is the man to deliver on all his promises , but looking in as an outsider with the continued backtracking and U turns it’s difficult to know what will happen next.

Swann spoke well, but none of his promises materialised, was full of excuses for failure and rather touchy with criticism. He wasn’t afraid to use the legal system for dealing with fans and journalists. By the end our relationship with local journalists was at rock bottom, with them being refused access to Glanford Park.
I am not going to go into a ramble, but I think his failure was due to incompetence and ego over anything truly sinister. Some may disagree, but I think he thought he could deliver far more than he could achieve with his ability. He is a known gambling addict (now) and took that approach with us. You won’t get many coming to his defence for this reason; he gambled our future for a pipe dream. This for me makes him a bad owner and he didn’t prioritise our existence over his own high opinion of his capabilities and dreams. Plus, there was a lot of nepotism, with family members dominating the board room, including having his son as chief scout.
I doubt the IB lads will go for another Swann interview. They got enough hassle from some for not being critical of Swann enough, so will probably not bother for this reason alone.

There was never any point of an interview with Mr Swann – you only got his version and how do you challenge when you don’t know a thing.

Regardless what happens from now on, Peter Swann will be remembered for systematically ruining this football club and delivering the most miserable and toxic atmosphere we could have imagined.
On a micro level he is arrogant and fundamentally had no respect for the club or people associated with it. Speak to people like John Staff about their experiences with him.
You clearly have a vendetta against Hilton Interested Bystander and you may well be proved correct, if you are then that will be another promise Swann has broken because he stated we would be left in safe hands.

“Is the relationship between Matt Ellis, Matt Blanchard & Peter Swann still a cordial one and if it is, I would be interested to hear how Swann intends on moving this forward.”
It was as cordial as both parties needed it to be ,Matt B ,in particular, chucked in a few uncomfortable questions asked by supporters for Swann in their encounters without seemingly being disrespectful ,the other 2 I always felt hadn’t the stones .As for those who wanted him stoning at the Iron Bru cross,they make me laugh most of them like Awaywego backed Swann until the last year or so and slated Bru and Matt for being negative when questioning Swann3 users thanked author for this post.
