    Ahhh is he the same "Rupe" who used to get referenced there a a fair bit? Didn't make the connection.

    I suspect it's more a case of being comfortable enough to let the mask slip than anything else.

    But why? Thats the bit I don’t get? By giving him this attention, it emboldens him and makes him feel somewhat famous, when the reality is, he is not a nice person and should be ignored.

    Isn’t he like everybody else on X…spouting “radical” views to gain attention whether you believe in those views or not

    bit like people who go on FB to tell the world that they’ve “checked in” at a hospital purely to get sympathy from people who don’t care

    I would hate to be a young un in this cyber era

    He stood a few metres from the step and spoke with great conviction, great joy.

    “All is sh-it” he announced. “All is sh-it”.

    Surely as a "Guest" if that was the case, unless he's one of Moog's alternate aliases. :)

    Why? I’m not really sure he’d have a leg to stand on given the state of his twitter account.

    Nah, we need something to keep the place interesting during the off-season.

    Sounds like the sort of guy who would send it to himself for just a little bit more publicity.

    My favourite bit was Wendover defending the Janmaat contract extension/termination because there was insurance contract in place he “remembers reading about”.

    He genuinely once said that we weren't to know Janmaat would fall apart so soon after signing the extension...

    Whatever you think of Uncle Ron, Wendover was dreadful tonight. Making up facts, stating his own opinions as facts, while simultaneously refusing criticism of Duxbury salary because latest accounts aren’t out yet.

    No idea why he sees himself as a person that needs a platform.

    Responding in peace however if you wanted to talk on a platform I’d listen to you. I did it as I was asked to do it. I don’t need a platform. It is very easy to be critical and negative. I want harmony at the club. Negativity can make its way to the pitch, I don’t care what anybody says I truly believe this. Is it right to talk about another man’s salary? I’m not sure it is and I am right we have no idea what the salary is or was until the accounts are released. I agree, we have seen what was outlined last year which were for a year 1 parachute payment period.

    Ah, the old 'stick your fingers in your ears and start humming' approach. Tried and tested. Never fails.

    Yep, exactly this. Scott and Gino do business properly, so there’s absolutely no way Scott didn’t give himself a massive pay cut to bring his salary in line with the other execs who led their clubs comfortably to safety in the Championship.

    Haters gonna hate.

    Just to nip this new defence in the bud, of course it’s fine to talk about a man’s salary.

    It happens in all walks of life - politicians, footballers, bankers, tube drivers and yes, the CEO of our local football club which has net losses in the tens of millions.

    Was a bad choice to have this supposed good v bad spaces, although having a post space spaces (declaring Rupert the winner) then another podcast host throw a strop because they didn't lead it is simply insane.

    Yeah I think some of our fanbase is descending into complete faux AFTV madness.

    Agree to all those points. For me it was never about a winner and a loser. I couldn’t even listen to the after post spaces. The other podcast situation. I think I have cleared up on Twitter.
