waytogo28 2,054 Posted November 10, 2017 You need to be well rooted Europhile to live in thriving Peterborough. After the £1 million given to Boston for extensive English Language training - Peterborough is the next most "needy" city in that respect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mudflaps 664 Posted November 10, 2017 Bratley was in post from 2003-2010 and his final Panthers blog he said: "During my time at Peterborough, I have done everything humanly possible to attract newcomers to our sport to be honest him and old sausage fingers did an awful lot to drive away quite a few fans with their bully boy tactics....

Baldyman 6,243 Posted November 10, 2017 It's an often used tactic of promotions to alienate fans and drive them away...its actually one of the few things they all seem to do very well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do hope that, as some posters suggest, Buster Chapman does read Forum comments, because this is very relevant to how he has been running KLS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crump99 4,474 Posted November 10, 2017 to be honest him and old sausage fingers did an awful lot to drive away quite a few fans with their bully boy tactics.... You and they must have done something to upset them. Never bothered me. I'm sure that they'd had plenty of private conversations about the guff I post but that's as far as it got apart from some of Bratters nice PMs when he wasn't happy, which is most of the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackadder 280 Posted November 10, 2017 (edited) Did the SCB hearing scheduled for Tuesday 7/11 take place? Not seen anything about it. Edited November 10, 2017 by Blackadder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wealdstone 3,454 Posted November 10, 2017 Did the SCB hearing scheduled for Tuesday 9/11 take place? Not seen anything about it. We are only the paying public and have a selfish interest in the survival of our club. Why on earth should we be so self centred as to expect those that hand out justice to have any interest whatsoever in us. We should just be grateful that they are so magnanimous that they are willing to take our money from time to time 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
