Not sure what your comment about FPS hiring Hartley is about, I've already said that, and that it would have cost a bit to do that. As for those two thinking fans were on their side, I'm afraid that doesn't surprise me, knowing one of them as I do. But if you're calling both of them out as rogue operators, then that's fine. Apart from DF still being a director at DFCSS, is that correct?

Any truth in the rumour DCFSS were forced to act to sell shares and get out the way because of this thread
One of the two you mention is a large part of the reason I felt I had to leave the DFCSS board, not because he's necessarily a rogue operator though. I barely know the other one so wouldn't know if he was a rogue operator or not.

The comment about Hartley is that it was John Nelms that hired Hartley thus incurring any cost of his pay off which you are claiming was part of the £800,000.You really can't blame Forbes and McDonald for that - you can blame Gardiner to some extent however because he hired him despite it being obvious he was never the man for the job.
