He predicted Micky Moore to be appointed? Blimey, picking that one out the air he must be a bloody good source.

I wouldn't blame them tbh.. and it wouldn't surprise me one bit!

I don't want it to happen as it would be catastrophic and the club would probably fade to nothing..

Depends who it is sold to I suppose.

If it's true he is thinking of selling up then it is time for the Bluebird Trust to seek a meeting of some sort with the clubs owners.

If Casson goes, he goes, it will just be earlier than I thought it would be, what can any of us do about it.

Most people bought into his vision, but it doesn't take a genius to realise he bit off more than he could chew and didnt know the full costs etc or pressure of running a football club, also has no experience and hasn't got the people round him who are experienced, certainly not his son.

Regards the Trust, that was set up because of his line about the supporters trust and eventually getting shares in the club - mmmmm did anyone ever think that was the intention.

I want first dabs on the house they build where the Holker Street goal is. Seen as though my dad wanted his ashes placed there I'll put them in the garden lol

Euromillions is £135 million odd this week

If I win it, I'll buy the club and replace the boiler with a new one.

We have a small chance of a return to the football league with PC at the helm. If he goes we have no chance of a return.

The Trust obviously didn't believe it because I believe they've raised almost nothing towards buying these shares!

There is to be an emergency meeting called where I've heard the club will announce its been sold to the ‘Foggen Scrap’ company.

They will apparently name a crushing mill in honour of the club.

Saturday’s game against Maidstone Moor Academicals will be the last game at the Sewerage Works
Ground, sorry, Holker Street.

Who could blame him if he sold up?

He can't do anything without getting slated on here

Paul Casson bought the club and ground.
All good for the future of professional football in the town.
The large majority of fans appreciate this.
No one from what I've seen and heard has set out to cause problems to Paul Casson.
It's the promises and then change in strategy that's caused the issues with genuine passionate fans. Any funding for our club is good and we need to remember this.
There is a way around the current situation in my view. Paul via his son or better himself need to communicate the real truth of what's going on off the field from their position.
If as most suspect he can't fund as imagined for any reason then ok ......just be honest and say it. Yes it's a disappointment but I would rather hear that than porky pies.
Paul, the club needs your support to continue but meet us half way and we can go on together.
