That is untrue and incorrect. I, for one, supplied the information to John Pakey at the Echo ahead of his requested deadline. You'll have to ask the Echo why they did not use it.

I would suggest the Echo and Michael Foley have to deal with this first. There has been enough disrespect towards MF on social media and the Echo/John Pakey have done nothing other than make things worse. Subject to the above post from MF being correct then John Pakey has some explaining to do. An apology from the Echo/JP and his profile posted immediately on the Echo website (as well as on social media sites) and then in next weeks edition.
To ask MF to post it on Vitals is inappropriate at the moment.

Ok, I wasn't stirring, just thought it may be of interest.
 
Well the Trust is up and running and lead by the distinguished people mentioned. I now look forward to reading their achievements in moving the club onward and upward.

Mr. Roe is absolutely correct. In the meantime, I would advise against any further repetition of an untrue and quite probably actionable statement.
