Tony Wrathall set to return to Plymouth Argyle's board of directors

Either Newell and Webb have been stitched up like kippers or they have stitched up their followers like kippers.

The writing was always on the wall, it's got prepack written all over it and I doubt it will be long before Newell continues his promotion of Stapes?

Aye Newell must be pretty dumb if he expects even the most die hard Avivas to accept his Stapleton poll was purely coincidental with this news. Paving the way for his eventual return you'd think.

The post was by Chris.

He also states that he is unsure of his role in te club after that post.

Basically he's putting the ball in Brent's court.

Talking to various ppl today as I understand it Peter Jones fully supported the decision for wrathal to return.

It looks to me that it's more a case of the reluctant one reneging on his promise to let the Windsor Boys inherit the kingdom, in return for their help in sidelining the trust, silencing dissidents and generally happy clapping his clusterfuck plans.
Future ownership of the club will be bought it would seem, not passed on to loyal jamboys. What did they expect ?

Yes. I think it has all been carefully orchestrated from the beginning. Webb is going to jump ship because he can see which way the tide is turning but Nool will do anything to ingratiate himself with the new owners.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Brent sell up now that the HHP plans are on the rocks. The council must be getting the jitters and the whole pack of cards is about to come tumbling down. Whether Brent can maintain his "preferred developer" status with the council is another matter - but if he can then he will wash his hands of Argyle as quickly as you can say "quivering lip".

All I can think is that the Club must be in one hell of a deep shit hole for this most unpopular of unpopular decisions having to be made.

Could it be anything to do with Nikk not now being the leading light in the take over potential and Jimmy needing a replacement?

There is no way it was purely a coincidence.

He described someone as 'vile' for even thinking it.

FFS, he brought the issue up himself using Stapleton instead of Wrathall only a matter of days/weeks ago, and bizarrely, included a fecking poll. In his comments, he gently leant persuasion towards letting these 'true' fans back into the club.

If that's not a deliberate, pre-empted PR campaign to smooth the waters, I don't know what is.

If Stapleton comes back in the future in any capacity other than a paying customer than it will be nuclear within the fanbase and i dont think Brent will want to piss off the few supporters he has left by welcoming him back.

Nool said years ago all he ever wanted from Stapleton, let alone Wrathall, was an apology.
He'd welcome them back with open arms as Board members if he could keep his little burgeoning fiefdom intact.

I'm not sure that Nool's opinion counts for all that much even among the pasoti faithful (other than his site bitch manager) these days.

It seems that Webb is now out of the Brent loop and if Nool isn't yet then he soon will be, that's going to leave him in a pretty lonely place.

Stapleton back as majority stakeholder and Jimbob solely the developer to benefit from HHP?

Apparently Brent asked all the existing directors to put money into the club but they refused. So he invited Wrathall back.

Anyone think that Newell will be giving up his seat in the directors box in protest against sitting with Tony Wrathall?

Somehow... I doubt it.

I guess him passing around Stapleton's mobile number was to force an apology i guess lol

I'm guessing that Jones is only interested in taking out again?

How desperate is that?

The good ship Argyle is sinking...

As long as he wore a freakin Man U short. FFS. What a crock of shite this is.

Of course it wasn't coincidental HSOS. As soon as he posted it on Pisspoti, we could see right through it, That's how the weasel and his side kick/Nikkkkks secratary De-Looney work. They are mentally unstable.

Assume TW is confident the club isn't in trouble. After all, if we were on the fringe of an "insolvency event" it would be his second and he would no longer pass the FL "fit and proper person" test.

One strike against you, Tone...

Also would why would he invest if the shit was going to hit the fan again? He's not gonna just chuck another 100k away.

You'd have thought.

Just like all the shite that has gone on before - we probably will never be told the real reasoning behind this latest fuckwittery.

Confirmed by Martyn Starnes as reported by Damon

Quote :

Just returned from a Senior Greens meeting with Martyn Starnes as guest speaker.

Relevant points - all the other Directors were asked to put money in
JB has been to many others 'Anyone who would listen' according MS to try and raise money. TW was the first to come forward and offer it.
JB has loaned the club between £1.6 and £2million.

Maybe he's both very trusting and not very bright?

After all he was one who lent the most money last time and secured it against nothing. And that's what he's doing again this time by the looks of it.

Why does everything get turned to Newell and Webb? Ffs chaps this is about a former board member nothing else.

If all you care about is how Chris or Ian react then you need help.
