My point is they put extra in when it was needed, got us moving in the right direction while making us sustainable. Not an ouce of criticism at all. Just fact and gratitude for our now stable position on and off the pitch.
Our debts to JR are the elephant in the room but nothing I've seen in recent years make me worry that he'd leave us in the kind of trouble the other two have.
Tv he more j think about it, the more I think his Twitter post wasn't accidental. No one makes that mistake or doesn't notice when posting an image. If he was going to announce a sale,, what better way to get some headlines than this...
One thing I notice you do though Jamie is praise the Radfords on one hand, then leave a little barb in there after, in this case above, our debts to him being 'the elephant in the room', and that you are unworried he wouldn't leave us in a mess.
When a man has been as benevolent and kind to this club and its supporters, I believe he deserves better than a less than subtle inference about the possibility he could call it in and leave us in the lurch....but of course you aren't worried about that so we can all sleep easy.
What you and many others on here don't like is realism... When someone points out facts, you don't like it.
I'm not bashing JR, far from it, I've praised him no less. But if you want to ignore the fact that he has the clubs balls in a tight vice or use me pointing that out as a way to have a go at me, thats up to you.
Go speak to some Chesterfield or County fans about how much they loved and trusted their saviours at first when they cleared debts, paid the way to promotion, new grounds etc.. now look at them!
JR comes across as a good honest man, doing the right things in the right way. The ways he's financed it is up to him i guess, but its our club and we have every right (especially given whats gone before) to keep eye on these things, but the facts are the facts whether you like them or not. I've said clearly nothing I've seen suggests he would do an Allen or Hardy on us. I don't see anything wrong with pointing out the elephant but that its very tame and no danger, but that doesn't mean there isn't an elephant there!
JR is a credit to our club and town, long may it continue!
If you want to get into an argument about me pointing out facts then don't waste your time...

Hard working midfield sort of player they need.
Thought he was quite liked at Grimsby, surprised they’ve let him go on a free.
A club doesn't cancel a players contract for no reason something is/was wrong within the club or player..

Or maybe he was out of contract in the summer & Notts came in and offered him an 18 month deal meaning he can feed his kids for the next couple of years.

I think he's a decent signing (McCain Oven Chips) and this is clearly the last throw of the dice for them , with games against the Gimps and Vegans prior to us, it may well have knocked the stuffing out of them even more I hope.

I'd love County to win their next two and be full of renewed hope going into the game with us.
As we know from our relegation season, it's the hope that kills you.

It’s funny how things turn out, isn’t it?
