Furthermore isn't it a tad presumptuous for you to assume that I even know Mr Holroyd sufficiently well enough to "have a word" at all?

You are now saying that you admit that Bates engineered the administration and the result and that you are happy about it? > You seem to > mistake a lot of > us 'pro Bates' crowd as, well, pro Bates. Why are you still pro-bates? Your original stance was that you were pro-bates to ensure we had a decent pre-season, we didn't have a decent pre-season so why are you still of the same persuasion? > We aint.

I will continue to shout scream and yell from the freeking rooftops, if that's what it takes, that I hate Ken Bates for what he has done to my club!! You it would appear are happy to be 15 points adrift at the BOTTOM of Divison Three and are happy with the administration and management that put us there - fair enough, you'll be ecstatic when we're in division four then!
