Last year's cup run is the only reason the club didn't fold months ago. It gave us a fortunate and unexpected windfall. It's mind-boggling how £#%&!ing stupid they were, but go on that Facebook page and Walsh's mates are all over it going on about how blameless he is. Even though attendances are roughly where they were budgeted (2,300 ish), they're trying to claim all this is because of the ones who've stopped going in the past year. They're in total denial - the problems go back far more than one year.

Walsh paid thousands of pounds to close personal friends for them to do a worse job than volunteers did before them, simply because they'd do what he want, never say no to him and constantly massage his ego. And when anyone objected, they all closed ranks and shouted 'bullying!'.

So we weren't allowed to ask uncomfortable questions about where our money was going and now we know why - they didn't have a £#%&!ing clue what they were doing, and didn't want anyone looking at it too closely.

It was reported that Walsh actually said at one meeting 'we'll wing it, we're FC, it's what we do' (or words to that effect), to widespread laughter and applause from his army of worshippers. Brilliant, and now winging it has brought the club to the brink of folding.

Apparently he's still swanning around the place acting like he owns it.
It's like the Soviet Union in microcosm

It has become clear to me over the last few days that my presence on the board, should I become elected, would not be to the best interests of the board continuing the work they're trying to do. A small section of our support has decided to ignore everything i've said in the q+a, in which i've been honest and forthcoming and instead decided to slander me and label me an extremist and a thief; I am neither.

I have seen very good and capable board members dragged into arguments concerning me and spending an inordinate amount of time dealing with things they should not have to deal with, this was never my intention. It is in the spirit of helping the club deal with the immediate issue of the financial trouble we find ourselves in that I have decided to withdraw . I haven't taken this decision lightly and have sought the council of a number of people, i'd like to thank those who have advised me and would also like to apologise to and thank anyone who already has or intended to vote for me in the election.

I would also like to wish the incumbent board members and those standing the best of luck in saving this club from the problems we face, be they financial or otherwise. Now is the time to get down to the hard work of saving this club and that should be our focus, the vast majority of people involved are good, decent people and it is for them that this club must survive.
Will make sure that the devious bastards will get theirs
