Every time he appears in the media I tend to think that all of our causes take a knock.


Would you rather let Defreitas be the only voice about the stadium, Don't hear anyone else other than JF standing up for the club in the media

Not really my point. I tend to think that GTFC should have someone adept doing its PR.

Just watched the whole program. Oh dear a lot of negative comments at the end regarding the unsuitability of Peaks Parkway for a stadium. But this is the only choice, since the council stupidly put so many restrictions on the Great Coates site, that it became impossible to move there.
We will just have to see what happens now.

We could have had the whole of the York City reserve team for that money.

Ive just seen the interview, and I wonder if we really are coming to a tipping point? He cannot go on indefinitely lending us money hand over fist, and unless the stadium is built he wont get his money back, so does he stick or twist?

20 years later and we still haven't even got any sort of agreement to go ahead. I think he would get his points across better if he didn't try to speak like a politician all the time and keep trying to remember his "media training."

Back to what I posted on another thread, JF is inclined to put the stadium before promotion. I believe that promotion would justify a stadium, I don't believe a new stadium guarantees promotion.

no but all these nimbys moaning about doing the stadium when we are in the FL...we were in the FL when we got knocked back the first time, the longer we are down here the thinner the budget will be and the harder to get out, even if the new stadium comes and were in the conference, atleast we will have the ability to attract investors, and have some form of money coming in.

If he wants to state that he's propped up the clubs finances for 13 years then he has to accept responsibility for the clubs achievements (?) over that period. Where we are is as a result of a decade of questionable decisions, including some on stadium projects, league status must be the first objective, nothing less.
