I read the program notes - I throw the program away after each game else would gladly type some of what was said...his comments were probably aimed against this forum, unless something is going on at Facebook or Twitter that I do not know about.

I haven't seen anything too personal about families on here over the years, so not sure if his comments were 100% accurate. What I did think as I read it is that, being the Chairman of a football club is a fairly high profile position. You take such a role knowing that in the good times you will be a local hero and in the bad times....well, we all know what happens. So, if you do not like the social media scrutiny that is now part of the job, then don't take it. The thing with Social Media is that a small % of comments are inevitably harsher than they should be (some are more positive than they should be). So...its life..get over it.

I have never posted anything negative ever about the chairman, a manager, a player or any family members. I do, however, reserve the right to slag anyone off at the club as long as it is not libellous - although I do think family members should be off-limits unless they also invite media attention. I can understand why any person in a high profile position  doesn't like any negative comments...but it just comes with the territory and complaining about it almost invites more abuse.

One of the nice things about the family stand is that, generally speaking, foul language isn't a major problem. Once you open it more to away fans, then this could change.

Am I right in thinking that most of the clubs have stayed relatively solvent this year...so no chance of an AGM Cup reprieve??

If he's applied then interview him.

If he's the best candidate give him the job

I think if he applies, under UK employment law you have to interview him, else you have a potential legal suit against you. So if he wasn't interviewed I would be worried, as it may expose the club to litigation.

Whatever...I do not think he will be manager next season, not that I have any personal axe to grind against the guy.

just like watching Brasil

Some of the away fans clearly didn't appreciate watching one of the goals of the season judging by their reaction !!

Wouldn't be too surprised if they shock us all by bagging 3 points at Barrow and then the tone of ll the posts will change again

Unlikely I guess, as I never get a good feeling about a trip to Barrow....but this is Alty

Ha Ha. If I had $100m, I would buy Alty and throw a cool $1m or $2m at the squad.

Don't hold your breath though - the reason I am working in Nigeria is because I don't have $100m and I still have a mortgage to pay
