I told everyone last year that Bill Phillips was causing us real problems , all I got was you and your ilk asking for proof which would have resulted in me breaking confidence with people who entrusted me with information. I could list a number of transfer targets but until the time is right you'll have to trust in those making the decisions. Steve Breed saved us close to six figures when he secured us a new training base, looks like he knows what he's doing to me.
We're close to signing a player once dubbed the fastest man in football, if he does sign then I'm confident we'll see results improve just like performances have.
Firstly "me and my ilk" weren't asking you to break any confidences at all. Simply saying that without knowing what you knew we couldn't have the same cast iron opinion on things that you had. I have no doubt that it is frustrating being privy to all of this kind of info but not being able to divulge it. I think sometimes you forget that most of us don't know all of these little bits of insider knowledge and expect us to respond as if we do.
Secondly, emotional rubbish is the stock in trade of football forums isn't it?
I don't think you will find anywhere that I have criticized Steve Breed and I'm sure he is doing his utmost and I will be there this season and the next and the next and the next..... to support whatever team he manages to put out.

By making this statement, you have to accept that 'these things' exist.
If they exist (as you accept they do) then we've little to fear and the hysterical ramblings of those with no idea must be dismissed as just that.
Matt.
At the risk of sounding like Donald Rumsfeld - It's one thing to know these things exist but quite another to know what they are.
And anyway, the hysterical ramblings are the best thing about this place.
