While you're not saying anything that hasn't been put in the public domain your absolute maniacal desire to twist everything into a negative either about the academy or the club means that you present it an inflammatory way.

To me what Hamilton Smith has said was easily the most damning aspect for Crewe, but when you read it without the headlines like "Crewe knew of Bennels abuse" and look at the facts it's different. Smith went to the board as he'd been told, the board asked for evidence and no one was willing to come forward. The damning part of it is that seemingly the club acted naively and rather than initiate a full investigation at that point they just decided to put precautions in place to stop it happening again.

The way you rant on about it you'd think that the club were complicit in it and practically encouraged it.
