Skynet Speaks

Quote :

there are some very informed posters on here who will give you news way before any other medium. And the club will try to gag the news- pretending everything is OK and that something special is happening to the club. It isn't. We are being taken for absolute mugs- and not by the rumours board

Straight from the rumours board. Whether you take all these things with a pinch of salt or not it's an interesting post.

This rumour paints a fairly ugly picture. And it rather feeds into the Trusts call for transparency and the answer it got or not. The question needs asking again with all the ground rules for the dialogue set out at the start and for those ground rules, the questions and answers made public. No private correspondence. No NDAs. No more tub thumping presidential essays to deflect criticism.

The attack poodles will be all over that post! Skynet's days are numbered .....

Which all goes to show.........

You can fool some of the Avivas all of the time, and all of the Avivas some of the time, but you can not fool all of the Avivas all of the time.

Brent, his jamboys and all the wannabes, have created a cesspit of self interest and misguided loyalty, from which the only cure is a fresh start. I was rather hoping that the Trust would stand as a rallying point for all fans but recent indicators are that they too appear to call for transparency then hide the truth.

I sense revolution could be soon in the air. Time to drive brent and his poisonous set up from the club and claim it back!

The only realistic rallying point would be the Trust but they have to take the lead and tell the people exactly how it is, even if it means upsetting Brent and his jamboys.
If they do this and the club ignores or punishes them, the people will love them for it. Gazebos 'outside' the ground on match days for fans to join the trust then walk away from Home Park. This will eventually bring a corrupt regime to its knees.
I'd personally donate the cost of a season ticket to the Trust, if I thought it would stand up to this odious regime.

Something Baba says makes me wonder whether Brent has a five year plan or whether he intends to bail before then, the player debt is being settled at seven percent p/a with the final fifty percent being paid at the end of five years, where the hell will he get £1.5m from? Especially from crowds of about 4k if we carry on the way we do. The only way out of this mess is to improve the football and results, top scorers at three goals each in December says it all.

So it will be welcome to ATD mr Skynet.

It really is an emotional roller-coaster ride with Argyle, one minute you get to accept the death of the club only to be chuffed when it survives, but I am once again coming to terms with the idea of the death of PAFC, Brent driven out of the club and Plymouth and the rebirth of a new club with fresh morals, principles and owners.

I would sooner feel a part of a club in the South West Peninsula League than be a detached wannabe in the lowest tear of the FL with little hope and with owners and immoral leaches sucking the puss from a half dead pox ridden corpse while stealing the pennies from desperate supporters pockets for their own self indulgences.

I said it before when he took over and ill say it again now. I dont believe for one second that Brent will own the club for that long. Maybe for another year tops.

Even more reason for the Trust to be brave enough to speak out and get the majority of the potential fanbase onside. When he does tire of the club, it will be worth nothing anyway and he's likely to hand it over to the self promoting dimwits and their poodles.
If you thought it couldn't get worse...............

Interesting from Skynet

"The club is an absolute shambles at the moment. Ward was the only candidate the board wanted to appoint, but he wouldn't commit because the remit he was given said no involvement in team selection or tactics. People only mess you around if you let them. Ward couldn't get to Bristol fast enough when he got a better offer. Now the Director Of Football will magically have a say in team selection and tactics. Weak leadership, weak management and unable to make decisions. Laurel and Hardy could do a better job than the seemingly untouchable Fletcher and Nancekevill, and the increasingly under pressure Brent appears more than ever to be not a football man. He will get his property development, but at what cost? The club is losing £40,000 week and that is unsustainable"

40k/week!

How long before skynet mysteriously finds he cannot login to his account?

I hope skynet finds way on here soon.

Skynet says with some authority what most could work out for themselves. I pleased he post as a ying to the Presidents yang albeit to a seemingly smaller audience.

Of course Ward didn't come because the T&Cs were so prescriptive. Anyone looking for a footballing job wouldn't want to take on head of paper clip procurement and Fletcher hand holder in chief.

Despite the Presidents ascertion about all the applicants with international experience rumours have it that Steve Gritt Bournemouth Youth Coach and Scout is next on the list. All these international managers must be really rubbish then. So hardly worth mentioning.

Other names mentioned today are international manager Bobby Gould, god forbid, and Leroy Rosenoir. Don't why Leroy never got a job back in football proper but wouldn't seem the type to play second fiddle to anyone.

Hey ho. In Brent we Trust (unless you are the Trust and then it's In Brent We Get To See Him Playing Silly Buggers)

Wonder Peter Ridsdale will be getting a Xmas card from the Brent household this year, doubt it somehow.

Wanted, figurehead to cover cracks with fudge, apply Home Park.

Skynet is normally pretty accurate in his posts, and has an inside line to the corridors of power.

Needless to say Webb and Newell are not his greatest fans, simply because he tells the truth.

argyle are losing 20k a week , todays crowd is i reckon 3-5k under what the club would have been hoping for.
wycombe surely will be under 5k ?

the club is nailed down now by the 'inner circle' stand by for admin mark 2 in the next 18months.....he bled green you know

the way i see it brent could pull the plug on the club hes got the land dont forget

It actually wouldn't be in Brents interests for the football side to fail. Pulling the plug, then building a hotel alongside a wasteland probably wouldn't be a commercial success.

The problem is, Brent is probably still being fed the line that success doesn't neccesarily need to be bought, and that Carl Fletcher isn't a bumbling oaf.
