At least he didn’t make promises he won’t keep.
We’ve had 9 years of that and look where it got us.

Topics: 11Why should a man appointed by Swann write a heartfelt statement about our current situation after being in the job 2 weeks.
Swann should be the one writing the statement as he has overseen all but 2 weeks of our demise from league 1 to national league.
You didn’t want Turnbull to be Swanns puppet and I think this shows he isn’t. Swann should be the one releasing a statement.

I said Swann should release the statement not Turnbull.

Fair. I misinterpreted your last sentence.
Why would Swann do that? What has given you the impression Swann takes any kind of personal responsibility after these years of constant deflection?

Swann, Turnbull, Hill… It doesn’t really matter who they churn out. It wouldn’t sound any sweeter, even if they could get someone to write a script with words like sorry, gutted, embarrassed, hurting…

People getting on Turnbulls back after 2 weeks is very harsh. He’s not going to take responsibility for the last 3 years.

Doubt if we hear from Swann again, he’s stepped down as chairman and is just classed as owner , he can avoid being in a position where he has to make statements. He’s done with us, when or if the club gets sold I’d be surprised if he says anything then, head deeper in the sand then ever, he wants it all to go away as fast as possible.

Et tu UTI99?

All I want is a statement from the owner stating two words “ I’m sorry”
We can then hopefully go our separate ways in the near future and never cross paths again.

Narcissists are never sorry, they don’t understand the terminology, their brains aren’t wired that way. EG Donald Trump

‘Swann should be the one writing the statement’. May have escaped your attention but Swann has stepped down as Chair and Turnbull is now Acting Chair and COO. But you’re not trolling are you, so I guess you need to catch up UTI99 🤣

Would need someone with a lot of time on their hands to put that together.

I sent Lee a text last night because us fans are concerned, this was his reply “Statement had to be brief, a long winded response would not imo have been appropriate, we are all hurting! Mick, I have given our supporters the opportunity to ask what they wanted prior to the last 2 games , spent 90 minutes in the pub with the fans on Saturday, which I will continue to do, need to stand shoulder to shoulder and look people in the eyes!!!, the Fight has started and the aim is clear, get our club back on track with a clear vision and hard working people who will sweat blood” UTI

Thanks for that update Mick. I think we all need to be realistic and allow Lee Turnbull to draw at least a dotted line under how we got here. We will only get a solid line when the club has different ownership but he cannot do anything about that.
Given the current owners track record of getting deals done holding our breath on that is probably not a good idea.
It’s a long and difficult road back to credibility for this football club and team. Hopefully Lee has got a map which is something that has sadly been missing for the last four years.
I was so embarrassed by our first half capitulation on Friday I decided not to attend any more matches until new owners were in place. On reflection I refuse to give up on my club becauseof the stupidity of one man who doesn’t give a shit and will be there against Stevenage and Hartlepool. Might even go to Bradford. I will embrace the inevitable defeats, cheer the young lads on and see it as the start of a long and painful climb.
This is rock bottom (he says hopefully),

Lee’s already earned my respect staying in the pub with you for so long awaywego! Did you get on to feminist issues at any point?
