O/T:- S****horpe

[Elite_Pie]

maybe he is uttering soundbites to hide what pie his fingers are in .

If this is about the weird Stags fan, I don't want to be one of the six.

So apparently S****horpe's owner has 4 different names and has served time according to the Athletic. This has seemingly been confirmed by the man himself on S****horpe's official Twitter feed. How screwed are they now?

On another note, Alan Hardy sure can pick them! Turns out he sold Ilkeston to this chap and tried to sell us to that fraudster Alex May or whatever his name was, is he some kind of magnet to these types?

He didn't sell it to him did he though?

Not all bad news for Scunny today - their game against Buxton, which was abandoned after 96 minutes with them losing 2-1, will have to be replayed in full:

I don’t think Hardy was all bad, he did more than most to get bigger crowds in, he can maybe claim a bit of credit for the increase we’ve had.

His recent spat with Adam Summerton on xtwitter though was one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever read. The bloke’s clearly an arse.

[uysapie]

Fair play to the bloke. Tell it like it is, get it all out there. "Judge not less ye be judged" as my old Mum used to say.

He denied everything for months and it is only the article which has dragged the truth out of him.

[Chicken Balti Pie]

He didn't sell it to him did he though?

This chap was a silent partner who took over Ilkeston, he then took over fully later

If I was a Scunny fan I would be more worried about this guy sounds like he already wants to get out already, he’s a chancer at best or still up to old tricks at worse.

Seems the thot is plickening. Why it's on the Fishy posted by a Bury supporter, well, no idea. Other than Dave did once try to "buy" Bury.

Certainly one strong view from a Bury fan below, listening to the interview last night I fear the worse for them and we all know what it’s like to be tricked by a fraudster, what is wrong with these people?

“
So now you know some of the truth about David White Wright Mellors Anderson Hilton.
Also known in Bestwood, Nottingham as Blockhead, also known in Nottinghamshire as Dodgy Dave.

We at Bury did our homework and figured him out very early. Now S****horpe fans need to get rid of him before he kills their club for good.

Some fans may think yesterdays news was bad, to be fair it was very well known to anyone who cared to look, it just took a professional journo to put it together, but there is worse to come.

Dodgy Dave has no money, fact. His net worth is zero, he has never made a profit legally in his life.
His Proof of Funds to buy the club were fake, he is a convicted fraudster after all. And he will either have to show them in court, committing fraud again or make an excuse before the court date and quit the club. No doubt blaming others.

His so called depression and suicidal issues are fake, he used them to get sympathy from some serious people he owed big money too, now trying to gain sympathy, low beyond belief.

He was not purchased any new land, and never will.
He has not paid players, staff and pensions.
A new ground would cost around 30 million, York's new ground cost 44 million, he cant pay the bills at GP, CCJs stacking up.

Current players are already having serious doubts and concerns, wages paid from personal accounts, NI and PAYE not paid, pensions not paid, Hilton hijacking the players WhatsApp group shouting at them to stop asking questions.

So were has the money come from? Dodgy Dave is not a serious drug dealer, his dad is not a convicted money launder ( he is a taxi driver ), Dave has borrowed it from a coupe of ex players and its now all gone.

Get prepared for him to leave, blame others and change his name again, claim health issues and that he was pushed out.

He had no money before the crash of 2007, and no money after, he is a career criminal and will not accept the blame for anything.

He will kill SUFC, and blame others, then change his name, check his history he done it 4 times already.”

I've not looked into this beyond a few comments here and there, but at least a few of their fans still seem to want the shape-shifter to stick around purely on the basis that he isn't Peter Swann.... and that will probably translate to a reasonable percentage of Scunny fans overall, which could make things extra unpleasant if they do now have a dividing fan base.

Regards Hardy and crowds. He brought gates up to a level which isn't much below what they are now, though it could be argued that the additional support we enjoy today was in fact largely thanks to Sven-Trembling's efforts with the highly dislikeable and self entitled Trews then driving up to 5/6 thousand semi to regular attendees away and then waiting to return when they finally sodded off. Inevitably the crowds dropped again with relegation to tier 5 and the current owners have had to take steps to win them back once again, their regular offers doing a lot of the overlooked heavy lifting I should imagine.
