Yes in fairness he put his money where his mouth was, nobody forced them to put money in and nor did they force them to give another £20k during Operation Promotion. I understand that that Twitter sage didn't help, but there is no way to prove or disprove that his account was hacked. Did I miss something on legal action? I seem to remember some carryings on last year.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Quoted from Mrs Doyle
Lets just say the Mullins never needed to put any money in a football club the fact is they did and it helped us get promoted back to the league should not be forgotten.

I never met them or know what happened between Fenty/board and Lee Mullins (don't really want to) but hold no grudge against him he was lucky enough to win a lot of money good luck to him can think of a lot better investments than a football club.


The GY curse strikes again!

I am not going to complain about somebody who was good enough to help with putting money into the club and op promotion, he didnt have to do that. Gave a decent gesture of helping with funeral costs for a town fan as well didn't he (might be mistaken, seem to remember something like that). It would be more easy keep their money than give to these causes, so fair enough.

Heard a rumour of Gowling and Disley to Alfreton but oddly nothing about Macca and Mullen . Also heard Barrow offer a good lump of wages to Pearson compared to his current deal , shame if he goes as I thought he's been quality this season.

Is there not some legal action taking place? Didn't Mr Mullen put out a statement earlier in the season?


Damn! You didn't fall for my trap.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Seems like we have another individual craving attention and affirmation through the medium of football.

I wonder if his wife will be bringing her own brand of skills and experience to the party too?

Well one day their money will dry up and they will be back where they was before they won the lottery, he's got more money than sense and if he doesn't invest his money into something that will make even more money then it will eventually run out

Would you mind giving me some financial advice sometime?

Didn't hear many people saying this when he bought the team suits for Wembley, paid for accommodation, helped fund operation promotion, etc etc etc.

I do think the money/attention has definitely got to him. Now thinks he's something he's not.  But let's not suddenly forget he has helped the club and its supporters out financially.


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

That's as maybe, but see that you have wisely removed your original post.


I didn't remove the original post and I'm not sure why it has been. Is it illegal to suggest someone is a racist because a disgusting post appeared on their twitter profile and I don't buy their excuse that it was hacked?

Bloody hell OJ SImpson could have field day suing the whole world at that rate!
