Maw v Ellis

[Bishops Finger]

I must start my post by saying I do not agree with Matt Ellis’ comments about Stuart and Susan Maw. I am quite surprised that he has posted something like this online as he always came across quite intelligent and sensible when I have heard him on the podcast or the radio and him posting something potentislly libelous was not on my bingo card .
Whilst I do not think Stuart is up to no good, in my opinion he is only fund raising to make himself look good. Money to the club is not good enough any more, he has to buy tickets and give them out to children for the extra kudos.
Also has to split the money he raises between the club and away travel, the away travel he uses to get to every away game to ensure a bus runs for him and his crew. I do not agree with this. Now he is warning that he may stop fundraising so that he gets lots of messages asking him to continue. it’s all about him and he has turned into an egotistical narcissist
Whilst I think there is no wrong doing
On stus part I’m disappointed with both of them, more embarrassment heaped on sufc ….and dont get me started on bell end

I don’t think he’s being nefarious and I think Matt has been stupid.I do have issues with be Stuart calling for public apologies, he’s never apologised for slacking iron fans off in the most febrile time I can remember.Each time he or others did their casts abuse rate went up ,some of it was threats etc.Just an awful time.He’s still spinning today claiming he apologised “for supporting Hilton” .He was unrepentant at the time claiming he can’t be blamed for others actions.

A sad state of affairs. Does nobody any favours.

I hope this doesn’t start causing old fractures to break again. It really wasn’t good to see the fan base having pops at each other last time.

Bring on the new year and a new start.
When you see how they weighed in on Facebook it was along old fractured lines,

I think Ellis worded the initial tweet without much though, especially if his point was that it is unprofessional to have a family member partake. That would raise suspicions.

I don’t know why it needed to get to this stage of melodrama. Surely some quiet words could have done, and the offending tweet was deleted. I don’t see what benefit this public spat Stuart is trying to bring about will achieve. Any issues with him and the Trust should be kept private in my opinion. It does create an impression of self-service and puffing oneself up.

It’s interesting how he chose to attack the trust given his fan base?
At least one who attacked me personally over this for some reason has reason to not like the trust

Not quite sure why my post has been edited by unknown forces.

No panic, thought I was starting to sleep type.

I think I get the jist of what you’re saying.

I don’t have facebook so I only hear the gossip second hand on here.

I don’t condone any shit stirring going in any direction but sadly I think it’s some people’s entertainment. Light the touchpaper and walk away, watch the fireworks from afar with glee.

There are expert anglers out there, but I try my best to not give them a bite.

Probably after the local BBC community award BF that’s being my thoughts from the start.

Did make the same remark about Stu after Susan’s 2nd win. I did question where he was getting his money from to eat at the restaurant so regular in jest, but nobody got it on here everyone was rather serious so I didn’t let on lol.

I don’t know the guy and I personally don’t think he’s done anything wrong, but I do think it’s time to pack it all in, the charity work and the self righteous lecturing on how we should all get on but on is terms, attacked the fans the other week for the negativity then had to issue an apology cos it didn’t go down well and he can’t be having that. Imo.

Agree completely with BF and 64.
I’ve seen no apology from him over his videos defending Hilton and slagging Fans off.
I have seen him hobnobbing with the Directors at away games, probably been invited into hospitality. All to fuel his Ego.

Merry Christmas to Iron fans but not the self publicists.
