    FTAO McullochisGod and Mark Ross

    I think we all realise that you have issues with the club , the coaching staff and the Chairman and constantly have only negative opinions to post.
    Opinions are fine however tainted they may seem to the outside world.
    I'm not in a position to prove or disprove what you have said and why but can only disagree and offer a different point of view.
    However all I ask of you both is if there is anything good and positive about this club you actually like could you please post it on here.
    It would be interesting to hear if you do have something nice to say about anyone from the tea lady through to the chairman.
    Failing that perhaps if you point out all your misgivings and then give a solution on how they could resolve these short comings ....!?
    Thanks

    I hope not , as county fans I'm sure they must have something positive to say .
    But failing that they can pour out all their negativity here (who , what , where , why and when ) and then give us all the solution on how to fix it...
    Every ones a winner !

    Excellent post Pedro. You need to know I love this club as much and if not more than anyone on here. I have been coming down the Lane for many many years now. While you might not like my posts I am not a supporter with rose tinted glasses. I could see where the club was going with the Trew's at the helm and in the end proved right. The new owner came in and I'm happy he did, we could have been in trouble without him. I question his motives, that's my opinion and if you don't agree fair enough. I feel he wants to run the club like a youth team for his kids and his own ego, his advisor's were poor and the man spins more crap on social media than Trump. Yes the dressing rooms look great, he laid some astro turf upstairs, put a coat of paint here and there but look at the facts. We are bottom of the league and the academy failed its audit so in football terms we have gone backwards. I sincerely hope HK can turn it around as I want us up the leagues as much as anyone, it's just sad to see a once well run professional club in the state it is in. If that upsets people so be it.

    Ok MIG thanks for posting your reply.
    Its not one I'm going to argue with but one I certainly don't agree with.
    Good to hear that you do indeed love this club and that criteria alone is good enough for me !!!
    I'm not sure that its all about Rose tinted glasses. Its more like having faith in the people such as AH HK and the people they employ to assist them.
    It might be blind faith but faith none the less.
    If Flaws , lies , ineptitude and the like are exposed then I will digest and evaluate as required but will only entertain these if supported with 100% solid facts and not hearsay , gossip , rumour or secondary evidence such as my mates,mates mate heard it on the grapevine kind of thing ..!
    In Trump we trust !.. Sorry I mean In Hardy we trust !!!

    It doesn’t upset me, it just seems you have a personal issue with AH and have chosen our bad start to the season to take every opportunity of saying how poorly the club is being run.
    I don’t remember you whilst we spent the whole of last season in the promotion race with a squad that was relegation fodder.
    When a chairman has signed every player a manager has asked for and they have an abysmal start, that isn’t a reflection of the owner, it’s a reflection of the manager. Rightly or wrongly AH has then acted quickly to rectify the situation and has continued to strengthen the squad.
    In terms of questioning his motives, what motives could he possibly have other than wanting to build a successful football club that will in turn make him some money on his investment? He’s not a multi billionaire that has bought Notts as his play thing, but he’s invested heavily in every area as far as I can see to make the club more marketable.
    Crowds are up, ticket prices are down and bar the last six games the club has been in a higher league position than before he took over.
    He’s been man enough to admit in his first 18 months he’s made mistakes, and hasn’t once criticised players, staff or fans.
    Regards the audit, as I said previously unless you can state the reason for failing the audit it has no meaning or weight.

    We relied on Yates and Grant last year end of story. Grant's goals were the difference. As for the audit. I'm simply asking AH to publicly state Did we or Did we not fail the FL Audit. Why will he not answer? There are many reasons clubs fail an audit.

    Not, not only is that, ^^^ an excellent post. It's full of fact, rather than speculation/rumour.
