Can someone fill me in on the animosity towards DE please.
I know he was part of the consortium that took control of the club, but left very swiftly. Genuine ignorance on the matter, I'm intrigued to know what he did though.
Where to start?
Gave himself a high paying role in the club when the consortium took over, taking money the club didn't have, whilst giving very little of it to our manager of the time, Paul Cox. When Cox then asked about receiving a wage, after realising that DE was getting a whack of it, he basically got told to **** off, so did so, leaving us with no manager.....then DE held the directors to ransom, demanded, and received, a massive payout and promptly pissed off to somewhere hot (Hell hopefully), never to be seen again.
Of course, he'd been pissing money up the wall for ages before that anyway, under the pretence of "working" for the club in the commercial side of things - because that went so well under him too....
That's it in a nutshell (and may be slightly too basic, but hey, even writing this amount is given him far too much attention)
Him, Philips, Baker, Wild Bill and all the others (with the exception of Thaea and Steve Breed) can take a massive walk off an incredibly short pier. If/when this club goes up the shitter, those bastards will have played a massive part in it.
As for GI - well they're the biggest bunch of C U Next Tuesday's going. Wish they'd just **** off, like the others did. Won't help the club, granted, but they're not doing anything to help it anyway.
