Frankie 8,663 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I enjoyed that. Very succinctly put and lots to agree with. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trublusince1982 243 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Yesterday, Dave King told us that we're going to have a tough couple of years. After the three years we've just endured, that's like warning someone who's being hauled off a sinking ship in the middle of the ocean that the lifeboat may be a little damp. quote of the year got to agree with andy but. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 0 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 A very well written piece. But I won't forget that some members of the RFB were virulently anti-Sos, UoF etc to an extent McMurdo would have been proud of. They were happy enough to see BH kicked off - I may not agree with much of what BH posts, but that should have been a tipping point and it wasn't, because members put their and his personality before the club. The only thing I want to see out of the RFB is FS co-opted as technical adviser for disability issues (I had no idea things were so bad, as usual we care little about what doesn't affect us) - that apart its history and, tbh, miniscule mandate, mean its a goner for me. Moving forward as one is a no in your eyes then? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 It would have been appreciated if the good reverend had expressed the same sentiments when I was removed but he allowed personalities to get in front of his judgement, which is surprising for someone of his calling. Tom Johnstone is an articulate, clever and thoughtful person. It is unfortunate that his location and job did not allow him to participate more in the work of the RFB. However, I have to disagree with him that the final nail in the coffin was the letter to which he refers. IMO it was the silly and provocative inclusion of Mr Leach's comments about T3B in the Minutes of the last meeting. Whoever was responsible for that effectively terminated the RFB. The reverend hated the reprobates that you championed so why would he stick up for you? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to debate with you just wondering. what's the rough percentage in your eyes,eg 50/50? what do you think the support is split on? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
