    Anyway, will this meeting ever take place?
    Your thoughts and other fans thought are, and always will be insignificant to the chairman. So no point asking

    I am merely suggesting the Chairman steps up and paints a current picture of his plans, Matt Hamshaw, the transfer window in order to inform the fans what exactly is happening with our club. It's not a witch hunt but his silence each season is deafening.

    Another point, if you keep banging the drum sooner or later someone comments on it.

    You will not want to hear the truth and he will definitely not want to tell it but it will go along these lines regardless of who asks the questions!

    Some agreement will have been met for a player or 2 in the new year to come in on loan.
    Some players will be put on the market.
    It is likely that the players made available for loan will be made available again.
    Interest for our players have been noted but no one will be going out unless the right offer is made.
    The training ground will be looked at when the audit has been done.
    I am the custodian of the club and will only talk with people who I think can advance the club.
    As the manager has said, it is a year of transition and we will support him the best we can.
    The lower gate numbers mean that the investment will be reduced accordingly. We have to make sure that we don?t burden the club with more debt.
    Yes I like red wine!

    You say us fans won't want to hear the truth. Why won't we?

    All those who claim to be in the know talk in riddles and code. Its nauseating. Just say what you know or don?t say you do.

    No riddles in what I wrote.

    It was a pretend answering questions that would be what would be said by any chairman.

    Don?t look too deep into things.

    Yes he should communicate with the fans
    He won?t though and the club will keep sinking.
    As for the training ground it is clear this has been an issue for the club for a few years and therefore it is very likely a major factor on the injuries. TS promised us a training ground and a academy when he came to power, if I remember correctly he bought land for this around Tinsley, but over the years we have seen more and more desperate actions and retractions of promises. He must run the club with fear, if the facilities are that bad why does MH say it is on him around the injuries, there are ways to ensure the truth is leaked out without shouting it from the rooftops.
    The owner, the board and the senior management are letting MH, the players and more importantly the fans down.
    As for people voicing their opinions on here, good, we should welcome all voices all opinions and debate around our club. People genuinely care and love RUFC so let them share their views.

    Don't hold your breath M8. Hasn't Stewart been here 15 years and the only time he surfaces is when it's going good.

    Yep 15 years keeping the club from going bankrupt and disappearing out of the league

    15 years of paying to keep a training ground going when it doesn?t belong to the club

    People will always interpret things differently and have a different opinion but you also get those who just like to stir the pot for the sake of it. then once the manager turns things around they disappear from the forum or say. Things like. I will eat humble pie which is always followed by BUT...
    Warne got us relegated from the Championship. Don’t forget that. He didn’t steer us to the bottom of the pub league.

    Some people spotted the fact that MH wasn’t up to very early on. Other didnt but are now jumping on the bang wagon to cover up the nonsense they’ve posted on here. One of them even suggested the other week, that it might be worth considering keeping Hugill.
