was it true

Was it true Wrathall was match sponsor for today game?

Yup, but don't forget he wasn't to blame for anything.

This news is not going well down at the farm

Don't start another Wrathallgate

Mind you if you ask GHOST, that all probably never happened either.

If the mark of the man is that he has the cash to sponsor a football match whilst people who he employed and used for his own corporate hospitality are still owed wages then he is an utter cnut and lowlife.

Yes, I believe it was confirmed by pafc Twitter earlier today

When is ****wallet sponsering a match? "I'll never hear a bad word said about that man!"

Of course he should be persona non grata at Argyle. Brought back into the fold by the offer of, and therefore absolution for past sins, a pint by The Prez and the casual way he was accepted onto the Home Park pitch to welcome the teams out last season.

I'm guessing he's been around the club ever since (there is something in my mind that even Brent said he was the lesser of all the M7 evils) and it would certainly been known amongst those who frequent the Royal box.

As a match sponsor yesterday he would have certainly been mixing and glad handing the Argyle glitterati. Brent Jones Newell etc would have all no doubt had polite conversation over canapés and chicken vol au vents.

As for the man himself he could have easily absented himself from Argyle games. The absolute right to attend is also the absolute right for him to choose not to. Legend said he had to sell his Bentley after the admin anyone know what he was driving yesterday?

Anyone know who invited him

I vaguely recall the subject being mentioned before but the details are fuzzy. Someone who has a name that is so offensive it kicks the swear checker into action.

I remember that Jock. Didn't someone try to set you up for a kicking over that as well?

Someone seems determined to get Wrathell back into the fold, name and shame that man!!

Wrathell has had all the time in the world to set the record straight, but he hasn't and until he does he should be banished from the SW under a cloud of utter shame and whoever it is that would like his return should join him!

Poor little lamb. It's the new definition of poverty in Britain today - downgrade from a Bentley to a Jag, and the next stop is selling the Big Issue in New George Street. I wonder, when he's splashing the cash on sponsoring a Torquay game, does the arrogant prick give any thought to the staff who lost their homes, and are still up to their neck in debt because of the greed, hubris and incompetence of him and his mates?

None of the Board that got Argyle into this mess should ever be seen near the club again - although I see on the pasoti thread that one poster reckons Wrathall was in the Devonport for the Northampton game. I would guess that a few people will be on the lookout for him at the next home game.

Certainly did, or if you believe his story there was never any danger to anyone and he didn't call you crapping himself because I had spilled the beans

And it was never mentioned on Exeweb, so there was no need for anyone from here to ask Exeweb nicely if they would remove all trace of the names because it could have caused a high profile auctioneer a lot of trouble, despite all the vile stuff he had posted on there over the years. That's another load of shit made up by ATD'ers.

Initially though on Pasoti, Chris Webb started a thread about how Tony Wrathall was not really to blame for any of our demise, a view held by James Brent apparently, and that Chris was hoping he would see his post and he would buy him a beer at a fanfest if he turned up, and lo and behold a week or two later Wrathall does turn up, but as a sponsors guest and is walking on the pitch the old board bought and couldn't pay for, of which he was a member, and then was wined and dined by staff who had gone months without their wages, who had to do it as part of their job!

It's a funny old game.

Tony Wrathall is just as much to blame as all the other members of the nWo. I wont allow people to re write history to portray people involved in a better light

I say get as much money as possible out of Wrathall. Fleece him for all we can get however we can get it. Let him sponsor a match or go on the pitch. Whatever he likes. If I was him I wouldn't dare show my face but it is his decision. He has broken no laws and is not banned or anything like it. Get him in and rob him blind.

It would've been Torquay getting the money from him yesterday, but I understand your thinking.

He has been absolved by the President who has also passed on James Brent's view that he was the lesser of the 7 evils, but in my eyes he is every bit as responsible as the others and hardly shouted from the rooftops that anything was wrong, and certainly didn't make a fuss when the offer of Japanese money came.

Having said all of that, I think it is slightly unfair to make him watch us all the time. That should be reserved for real hardened criminals.

Of course he is just as responsible as the rest of them. That much is obvious. And he lost a bundle of money. That much is obvious too. He should have been more responsible. He wasn't. I'm not sure why I should care much about that or what difference it makes to anything. If I was him and I was eating in the business lounge I'd skip the soup though.

The first of a good few occasions when the President sought to speak for the fans and got it wrong just plain wrong. History doesn't say whether the meet up happened but if Wrathall is prostituting himself around South West professional football clubs it would see likely that their paths crossed. There can be little doubt that the proxy 'associate director' and Brent chaffer would have rubbed shoulders with Wrathall yesterday. From storming the directors box to quaffing nibbles with one of the M7 in a matter of months.

Looking at the comments on the farm I suggest that Wrathall's involvement is a question best directed at the puppeteer. It seems to me that the puppets are trying to make out that he (Wrathall)wasn't ever one of the bad guys. They hardly ever speak without being told what to say

I never believed the locals excuse that they didn't know what was going on... they were gambling ... pure and simple. My cat could understand the profit and loss goings on at Home Park over the last few years, and yet we're supposed to think these business men didn't know.
I have no problem with administrations or bankrutcy. That happens in business, but it shouldn't be the case these people exit with their own wealth intact, while the small fish and employees suffer. Where is the admission that the likes of Gardner, Todd and Wrathall did wrong ? where is the contrition

Ne'er do well 'chavs' shoplifting a few pounds of cheese are expected to pour out the contrition through the courts to the good and haughty, so why are these gambilng businessmen that cause untold misery for working people not seen in the same light ?

Just because we've got rid of those rich goons having a flutter on a parochial football club, doesn't mean we're any better off.
In fact, just google any of Brent's property comments and history with Citigroup and it's real estate gambling disaster while he was a big man there, in the US that resulted in a 50 billion dollar bail out from the US government ... and yet not a penny of guilt from the embedded multi millionaire employee of the modern global executive class, as he left the debacle to pursue his childhood dream... life's just one long hoot. Just look at some of his comments on that sort of business, and I note he says he's now into meddling with global agriculture ... something Oxfam has just said is going the same way .... " food markets were supposed to be an exchange for farmers, not a global casino for the rich and corporate".
I'm sure god will bless 'James' and Wrathall alike up at Home Park, while the feckless fans are routinely bad mouthed.

Is it?

He's obviously got enough to go about sponsoring football matches when he feels like it, and wasn't there mention that he was keen to get back on the board a little while back? Until we're told official figures of repayments, I remain sceptical (skeptical? sceptikal? euff, momentary unsureness on spelling) about how much any of the 7 actually lost.

He lost money so did everyone else that's why we went into Admin!!

pity beards cant grasp that fact

I would of thought with Wrathall eye for detail that he'd be ideal for the GasBoard. He'd certainly get a good few votes.
