    Yet there's another Nettleton posting on there as well. Who knew there were so many Nettletons.

    It seems strange that Martin Nettleton was an alias, while at the same time there's a genuine Nettleton in the same group.

    There is one Martin Nettleton on the electoral roll in the whole of the Barnsley borough. One.

    So yeah, coincidence at worst, definitely not pretending to be a known businessman with some wealth behind him. Definitely not.

    I reckon it's a consortium inclusive of Darren Gough & Dickie, the Tatty Van Man, Pat of Pats for Pants ont market, Shaun Dooley, the Becketts, owner of Wildcats and A1 Ace taxis owners.

    Is there a certain irony when my own page links through to my personal Twitter account and there’s an actual real life human visible online or on Match Days?

    Thanks for questioning my credibility, but I actually posted on here the other day that we actively approached them about the group/campaign, encouraged them to submit questions for the Q&A, asked all those questions, but when it came to a meeting the Monday night before it we were told to ‘prove ourselves’ first.

    The part that’s forgotten with ‘Martin Nettleton’ is that as much as it was criticised when it became common knowledge, it wasn’t before when ‘he’ was the spokesperson. The ‘10’ all signed up to the comms that person was putting out - where they stated they setup the Facebook group on behalf of the ‘consortium’.

    Hopeful of confirming something in the coming days. Speaking to the club regularly but just a case of getting an exact date in February finalised and agreed.

    I reckon Conway will be pre-recorded/ selected questions in advance or talking to a select few ! What’s neededis a live event so we can read his features as he avoids I mean answers questions

    If you're one for trawling the
    Sorry to say this "Troff", but you really need to stop over-thinking / being obsessed and get out more. Buying a football club takes a bit more than having "some wealth behind him". Have you checked his assets at Companies House too ?

    It stretches credulity beyond breaking point that this was a name picked at "random" or "by mistake" - someone got caught with their pants down, and it destroys all credibility for me.

    I am questioning your "credibility" ( and you're welcome btw ) there is a major difference between requesting a meeting and your garbled response above.

    Completely agree. But it’s better than nothing right? And at least is a step in the right direction? And also happens quicker if he’s not planning to be in the country for the next two weeks.

    Especially when pre-recorded doesn’t actually matter, considering it was unedited, and not a single question sent in wasn’t covered.

    I think supporters will appreciate, in the main, a rinse and repeat of the CEO interview but with Paul Conway. Just as a starting point.

    What’s that difference? Can you point it out? Considering we actually, 100%, requested a meeting and had it turned down.

    And I think it’s only garbled because it isn’t what you want to hear.

    Wasn't that what was said the Khaled Q&A would be and it wasn't. Turned out he answered everything pretty much, pretty much to everyone's dissatisfaction granted, but he answered it ........kind of.
    I'm sure if Conway attempts to vet or censor what he's asked, the Supporters Trust will tell him there's no point in the meeting.......

    He did a Podcast a couple of weeks ago.
    At the start he was asked why they bought Barnsley he basically refused to answer it rambling on about something else, when he had finished rambling she asked him the same question in another way ,again he blanked it and rambled on about other things.

    Journalists who have asked him about the non payments to the Crynes , the 750k etc
    are given short shrift and told its nothing to do with me , its the Hong Kong company

    That John Neasden that post’s on there seems quite full of himself. Slagging the Supporters Trust off. Looks like they’re gathering quite a community of a ‘certain type of poster’ that’s not conducive to having a united front. Ah well, better off out of it
