In my opinion SWANN is still saying what goes at our Club and is simply pulling the strings of Lee Turnbull the puppet of the SWANNS. We supporters aren’t stupid and know what is going on SO C’MON LETS HAVE THAT PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATION TODAY, OUR VOICES MUST BE HEARD.

Another good post Bartonscorpion, following on from Ironfromafar. You’ve really summed up the feelings of the majority of supporters. We have been fed lie after lie after lie. This in my opinion is another smokescreen bringing in Lee Turnbull. I wonder who is paying his wage as well and how much. I’m sure he’s not left Peterborough for peanuts. I say regarding the peaceful demonstration BRING IT ON!!!!!

I find it hard to believe we were paying £4000 per week in interest to Swanns company, Coolsilk and that one of our directors was paid £190,000. I wonder who that was? And then we have been losing £90,000 a week. The Swanns have been an absolute recipe for disaster since they stepped foot into our Club. Please give us our land and assets back and sell up and walk away ASAP.

A very good post Sharpshooter24. It sums up our feelings towards SWANN and what he has done to our football club and also I am sure the feelings of the majority of our supporters. Until the SWANNS leave our football club for good nothing at all will change for the better, in my opinion whilst they are still here things may deteriorate even further. What a ridiculous statement from him. SWANNS OUT!!!!!!

We still need that protest because nothing has changed except that LT has been put in the firing line. Simon Elliott realised what was going to happen and in my opinion that’s why he left because he could see its a lost cause because Swann is going nowhere and we all know where that will lead.

So c’mon I feel the peaceful protest should still be on at the Mansfield match to let him know just what him and his family have done to our Club. He underestimates how devastating it is to supporters for our Club to lose its league status and the importance of it to our community. I believe with the attitude of SWANN and whilst he is still here we may never regain league status.

After reading SWANNS announcement nothing has changed except that LT will be in the firing line. Its not even worth reading it, just the same old same old!!!!!!!!!

What a joke. Is SWANN having a laugh at our expense. Nothing has changed whatsoever! It’s just the same old same old. If he thinks our youth are anywhere near good enough to survive in the national league playing against experienced physical seasoned footballers the man is utterly and totally deluded. There are teams in there better than some of the teams in efl 2. He is saying we have to be self-funding and that money through the turnstiles, season tickets etc. will fund the players. I feel we’re being duped yet again. SWANN is going nowhere unless someone is buying our club. NO MENTION OF HIM GIVING THE STADIUM AND ASSETS BACK TO OUR CLUB WHERE THEY BELONG. WHO WILL WANT TO BUY OUR CLUB WITH THE ASSETS HAVING BEEN STRIPPED AWAY. Diabolical statement in my opinion.

Depending on SWANNS statement at the weekend the demonstration should still go ahead. Please read my post on the “Swann Out At Last” header. As I have said unless there is a buyer/buyers waiting in the wings and he says he has got said buyer/buyers then in my opinion this is all smoke and mirrors ONCE AGAIN. I hope I am wrong.

After my initial feeling of exuberance on hearing the news that SWANN had stepped down as Chairman with immediate effect I now am fearful that this is another of SWANNs ploys and deceipts. Unless there is a buyer/buyers waiting in the background to take over our Club I fear nothing has changed. I have great respect for LT but he is a footballing scout/head of recruitment, never has been a club secretary or chief executive even never mind a chairman. I fear he has come here to be a frontman/puppet for SWANN, hoping that fans will spend their money on season tickets, car parking bays and return through the turnstiles to get money in for SWANN. Also to take the flak for SWANN and deter any demonstrations. I do hope I am totally wrong in what I am thinking but fearful that I am right. If I am right the SWANNS company still own our stadium, assets and land and they will not make any money available to save our Club and nothing we all will have changed. ANOTHER PLAN TO TAKE THE HEAT OFF SWANN?????

Until our Club is officially SOLD I don’t believe it as we all know SWANN cannot be trusted!!!!!

After reading Lee Turnbulls statement on the club website I don’t feel convinced. Why would a chairman who has resigned with immediate effect contact and employ a custodian of the football club. Surely the new owners would do that. Is this just another ploy to get more season ticket sales and take the heat off himself and prevent any demos from the fans.

I guess if we have a buyer or a consortium of buyers ready to take over our Club it will take some time to sort everything out, all the legal side of things with the EFL checks and other legal issues. That could be why Lee is standing in with the changeover. Let’s hope this is the case.

After listening to the podcast today Swann has proved himself what an utter loser he is. He said we are now sustainable and that’s what he wanted for our Club. So regardless of us losing our football league status he is happy about that, and he stated it makes us more attractive to investors. In my opinion he is totally dillusional and lacks enough knowledge on how to run a Sunday league club never mind an EFL Club. Several times when asked straightforward questions he didn’t know the answer and just waffled. This is why we are where we are, staring relegation in the face, because Swann is clueless and we need him gone otherwise our Club will be extinct if he stays.
