    The Chairman speaks out

    I bet this was penned weeks ago.....

    Too right it was, then edited as necessary Brin. Maybe a month ago. As far as I am concerned it is due to what is being said on the likes of here and probably many other places, may be even in public.

    It is repetitive, and short on content. Whilst I generally advocate a keep it in house approach, the situation warrants more, without naming names or at least a “we know now what to do - and this is it, XYZ.
    Otherwise, how can we possibly take him and intentions seriously, in the manner of trusting for the god knows how many times, “we have learned, etc”

    The script may be longer than usual, but it is much the same as always.
    We supposedly have asked a man about how to run the organisation, well, we need someone who actually knows football.

    Yes, I believe we should know what transpired during the discussions of hamshaw going, into why they thought it necessary to change at such a late stage of the season, again without doing so in an unseemly or illegal way. Just let us know what comes next, we can work out why when x gets appointed.

    And he could have started or ended the paragraph about supporters spending hard earned money on our relatively high ticket prices by now GOING BACK A SEASON ON PRICES. He acknowledges it, he should do something about it. How about it Mr. stewart?
    The squeeze on player wages is to come, so lets have the “rebate”.

    Too much is swept under the carpet. Clarke, he says he knows what more is wrong, well tell us what needs doing if you can’t say fully what he has found.
    My guess with last night’s heart rendering chat he won’t be asked to stay.

    If you want the same results, keep on doing what you are doing. I’m sorry, but I just don’t believe you Mr. Stewart, not any more.

    And bitterly disappointing it is to have to say it.

    There's not only TS to blame. Rotherham public to start with didn't back us enough 10 years ago to get the grounds capacity increased then we would have had more chance of competing in the championship.

    This season it's down to Scott & Hamshaw. Their signings sent us down. Need a new head of recruitment but then it's down to the manager to have the final say on who we sign.

    Supporters. We want communication from the club
    We get communication Supporters I don’t believe it.

    Don’t know why he bothered. He can’t win.

    Agreed. I?ve just got in from work and seen the chairman?s message. Then I came here knowing exactly what the reaction from some might be.

    He?s not going anywhere so we have to trust him.

    You dont have to trust him at all. His decision making has been awful. People should acknowledge he's financially propping up the club though.

    We've got one idiot thinking he's owed a rebate on his season ticket. Maybe the main sponsor is due one as well? The saving grace for our old Tony is he (his son) owns the ground. Seems to have let everything else get out of control.

    What I said was put the season ticket prices back a season, quite obviously. Not a rebate of what we paid this year, so idiot yourself.

    Many people think lowering prices for D2 is more than fair. Stewart admits we have been short changed this season.

    if you are referring to the owner then he hasn?t been bothered all season . It?s been piss poor and the buck stops with him , he hires and fires .
