Re the collection, Cleeve appealed for £50000 to fund the Club till June and was expecting his 'customers' to each stick a tenner in the 'charity' buckets being carried round by several young girls.
Apparently the name of the charity wasn't clear on the buckets so most people wisely declined to contribute. He even expected one of the girls to walk through the Scunthorpe section but one of the older ladies on the staff said NO. Quite why he thought the away fans would want to contribute is a mystery. We can only surmise as the final destination of the tiny amount collected. 3

I actually think he is a sociopath as he has no concern for how his behaviour affects others ( as is perhaps evidenced by his previous history of dodgy business dealings).
He had a pop at Greg Plummer in the same programme notes and Greg was quite upset by it as he doesnt really have any way of getting back at Cleeve. I saw the opportunity to confront him just after halftime and literally whispered a few rather industrial home truths in his ear. He is very good at handing out the crap but doesn't like it back. 4

Quinn. I got wind of the 'collection' and advised people to keep their money until they could be sure it would benefit the Club.
That is why he slagged me ( and others) off in the programme yesterday. The man is an absolute spiv and has spent the last few weeks lashing out and being as awkward as he could be. I am not actually sure people would believe some of the stunts he has tried to pull recently. Better times ahead hopefully. 5

Just about a tankful for the Bently by all accounts.
He was not a Happy Bunny. And he expected a young girl to go through the Scunthorpe crowd with one of the buckets till one of the older lady staff said NO. ![]() 6

Nemisis, I knew the reason, I just wondered why somebody should query their status in the league. Having to groundshare happens from time to time eg Gloucester when their ground got flooded. I think we played them at Forest Green's ground.

Mall, do you not think the £300K of investment for next season is sitting on that famous table of yours.
Everyone can see the man is a busted flush except the man himself who is being as obstructive as he can to those who who do actually have a chance of stabilising our Club. 11

I voted yes and have confidence in the Trust Directors to act in the very best interests of its members.
This is surely why the Trust was formed in 2009 and the opportunity is now, subject to negotiations, ours to grasp. I think Bal very much wants community and supporter involvement and I for one look forward to giving as much suport as I can. ![]() ![]() 12

Rod, I think these also apply : bears and woods, eels and buckets, sacks and monkeys.
Quite a repertoire, all in all, as Jo has discovered. 14

Certain parts of the stand have long been called 'God's waiting room'.
Lots of regular supporters sadly no longer with us. |
