Quoted from TheRealJohnLewis
Leaders don't hide away when things are going wrong, they stand up and be counted. The easy thing would be to hide, Jason isn't.

Was it really that outrageous what he said, I think it was measured and people are just a little too emotional after a loss.

'Kin 'ell, is that it?

Last week it was the price of scotch eggs, this week a perfectly rational post match comment from a fan.

Some people will have a moan about anything.

Quoted from Fillipe Noche
So, its no surprise that as a technology entrepreneur, Jason Stockwood is all over Twitter, and he enjoys giving his opinions.

He’s taken to giving his opinions on our games, results, and performances. Personally I don’t think that’s going to end well. It’s already sparking criticism and conjecture, with fans suggesting that he must have been watching another game, plus other comments.

What’s your thoughts on a Chairnan and part club owner commenting on Twitter like this. What happens when, perhaps as it should have done by now, he should be making honest comments that our form and performances aren’t good enough if he’s got something to say on there?  And what can that do to the relationship between Chairman and owner, be that Paul or any future manager?

Personally I don’t think it’s a healthy idea or situation and I think it will create a problem for Jason. Whether he likes it or not, he’s now more than just a fan.


Are you pining for the good old days when the owner used the OS as his personal message board on a Saturday night after he had drunk one too many?

I thought the players did ok .So agree with Jason's assessment . Just the lack of ambition to try and win the game that was upsetting .

Maybe he was looking for a bit of feedback on progress so far, but forgot that the level of scrutiny in the football business is not like normal life and all he succeeded in doing was opening the door to a room full of sh1t,

A different type of Tweet this time from Jason, with seemingly a different type of tact. But one that is still resulting in criticism from fans

With Wycombemariner telling him that they’ve lost the fans already.

Two things here. Firstly my original post still stands. I don’t think it’s healthy for JS to be all over Twitter. But, my second point remains the same too. That, even though fans got their wish in a change of ownership, it hasn’t changed anything and fans are already turning on the new owners and being critical of them.

It’s an interesting situation. The Paul Hurst Out brigade are at large, bigger than ever. Paul Hurst is Jason and Andrews man, so it’s natural that their frustrations with PH being in office, is essentially a criticism of the owners for putting him there and keeping him there.

I guess that the lesson here is, that it doesn’t matter who the owners are, the fans will always be critical of them and will be fickle, even to whoever they thought were knights on shining horses

Just read the tweet, WycombeMariners reply and the reply to him. Most seem to be uniting together to agree that Wycombe Mariner is a flipping idiot.
