Gavin Carter "It's a long-term project"

Just to give a view on Gavin Carter, I was being a mouthy fucker on twitter (shock horror) and he direct messaged me explaining some of their rationale around the scarf fiasco and what felt like a polite "is there any chance you can turn it in" message. 

Obviously not much has changed, and I didn't, but, I'll always slander people who I think are due it. That said, I don't think he's a bad bloke, he comes across sound, and there are bigger problems than him. 

I don't think he has much influence compared to some other players at the table, but I don't get the impression at all that he's a toad etc like how I feel about a lot of people that have been associated with the club.

Carter nothing more than another chancer in my opinion. We need a total clear out. 

Genuinely fascinated by opinions like this, what are you basing that on?

Just how I feel about it tbh mate. Just looks to me to be another bloke benefitting from a ludicrously complicated ownership structure that is offering absolutely nothing positive to the club currently. Couple of interviews have got people on side, but actions speak louder than words, and there's been very little done. Keep hearing he's a fan, but didn't the last rogue mob have a 'fan' in their ranks too?

I could be wrong of course. Basing it off my gut feel, nothing more. Said my opinion to be sure I wasn't trying to pass it off as anything more than just that, my opinion. 

How does he benefit?

What's the difference between a non-exec chairman and a shopping trolley?
The shopping trolley has a mind of its own but you can get more food in a non-exec chairman.

Gates up, retail up, hospitality up which is all good and yes you'd expect that after promotion.  I wonder if we'll see hard figures as in a previous directors brief (hopefully not missing out a financial year.

Steady progress and no grand promises.  I always prefer under promise, over deliver to the alternative.

"progressive" signings in the window doesn't tell us much so as ever WIOTOS.

Interesting to see some of the opinions from just over a year ago. Not a dig at anyone in particular, just very enlightening I think to see just how much has changed and perhaps how much we didn't know or blamed on the wrong people. And I do include myself as one of those who was pointing fingers in the wrong direction somewhat 

Yes, some "interesting" takes for sure,

... and some absolute shockers.

All well and good but they have to invest in the squad to stay up….otherwise we will be back in the shit League One with a big drop in income 

Which was mentioned

Almost like people just spout off rubbish without even listening to the video...

Reminds me of when Mary Whitehouse (yes I'm that old) back in the 70s campaigned to stop an Andy Warhol documentary being aired. When asked had she seen it she replied "No - I'm not watching that filth". Not surprisingly it had a huge audience when it was aired but disappointment for this spotty faced teenager when the only thing vaguely pornographic was a 3 second shot of a bare breast.

Mary WhiteHouse got her breast out?!!😳😳

It would have been a challenging wank indeed. 

From Gavin Carters' long term project to speed Wanking!

But you still wore out the video so it had as many stretch lines on it as the Blockbuster copy of Crocodile Dundee and the g-string shot
