No, no - I fully comprehend what he said before and after. He's under no illusions things will be tough financially. Its a hard league and it may not be the kind of league for a load of youngsters but thats what theyre gonna have to do. If they achieve a 5th from bottom finish its something everyone...

I manages to listen and I particularly recall the part near the end where he claims a 5th bottom finish should probably be considered a 'decent season'.

Hows that for getting the juices flowing...

If you look back through a couple of posts very close to his departure you'll see I actually as near a damn suggested he should go, purely for the reason of getting him off the wage bill. He's a grown man, fully entitled to go where he likes. The fact he denied going to Barnet 12 hours earlier was e...

Still no. I am not convinced the club will survive the full season before collapsing..... If I go - it will be pay on gate..... Ditto * To date, the current owners been negligent to the extreme in getting the club to where it finds itself now. 2 years of over budgeting and overspending ALL on littl...

People seem to ignore the fact that whatever his so called motives were, if that’s even a thing… John and his backroom staff leaving actually HELPED and POSSIBLY saved the Football Club. I was in the big hall talking to him at almost 11pm that night and he insisted he wasn’t close to signing anythin...

Almost half the people that's voted arent getting season tickets - whether it be not renewing, never buy, or want to but too costly.

God help the club if there turns out to be a similar trend outside of this forum.

The plea doesnt exactly seem to have attracted much sympathy from the Conference forum

"We're busy actually right now signing up even more players on top of the existing commitments we have, but can you pay for it for us

10/10 for pisstake value."

No intentions to renew - at this stage.

I see someones listening...

The 5% originally offered back to members has been quietly increased to 5.5% - being the same amount not taken up by Dave Ward.

Now if that 5.5% can just be returned to members at the same price (c. 70k) then I may start to believe certain intentions.

Brian East clearly stated their bottom line wish was for the club to remain as is/was. Care to explain how this particular interview was the 'most sanitised' ? It appears to me any suggestions (highlight the word ‘suggestions’) of outside investment were only put forward as the club were seemingly h...

I believe this gives a good explanation into the East's level of participation in the path the club took - and it's exactly what I thought I had been told previously by them. http://www.fansfocus.net/dagenhamandredbridge/index.asp?stid=8324615 This paragraph would particularly seem to clarify: I pre...

I'll be updating the page soon to advise no further donations should be made and that any monies currently donated would be refunded accordingly.

In terms of how we got here, I’m sure there were many people involved in the decision making but it’s difficult to know how the Easts’ can be blamed given they aren’t and have never been decision making board members. With regards the shareholding, there is currently a clear breakdown of 74% for GH/...

I can't see how we can attract anyone any good if we can't guarantee next weeks wages. I can't imagine currie and the others were earning mega bucks but they've legged it and I don't blame them. They got mortgages to pay and probably need stability like the rest of us. I'm rather negative about the...

There was a very good post made to the FB account recently from a Simon Hanning - as follows: Interesting that the 'email' or the 'flags' are still being banded around as the main reason the club is in the situation it is. As I have said before, "Just because they say it's true, it doesnt actually m...
