reading their forum, I really do feel sorry for them, we were in that situation not long ago, and we are now in a better place, despite what some of their fans think.
I hope they see sense and go for it on their own, they don't need all the bollocks that they are putting up with at the moment.
I know they are our rivals, and I know that sometimes feelings can get highly charged, but as fellow Northants Football fans, I feel that they deserve better 8-)
The sooner the bad guys get runn out of town, the better 8-)

I don't feel sorry for them, the hand of friendship was extended and many of them bit it (not all mind), they had their warnings & they ignored them out of choice, and continue to do so. What we're getting and doing we're achieving with hard graft and committment. I'd say the majority of their fans don't give two hoots about us.
There is still a scenario where they can save that club, but it involves tough decisions and something to give at chairman level and that's for him to give it up completely, cut his losses and run, then KTFC merges with KFC back where they ought to be, I can't see it happening just now.
IL stated on Ploppynet that the only way he could see NP as viable was if both our clubs used it, well we've put a stop to that and now if he's back it could spell their end.

I'm surprised none of them are questioning how long Beck might stick around given the recent shenanigans. He seems to have a certain amount of integrity, so might find it difficult to stick around.

It seems that it's a case of keep a minimal tenant in place until 2015 when everyone can make some money, why else would Ladak stick around, unless of course he has guaranteed the re....ah perhaps that's it as well!
They seem to be suggesting that KC turned down Jeune's business plan

After the recent statement on their OWS I think they may struggle to top 400 tomorrow evening since many, judging by comments on Ploppynet, are not prepared to line Ladick's pockets.

The following was emailed to members (WIthout the @'s and #'s):

Following yesterday’s statement from the Football Club, the Trust would like to clarify its position in relation to events at the Club.

As was widely publicised, when George Rolls arrived at the club, it was his intention to pass 24% shareholding of the club (following a successful takeover) to the Supporters Trust as reward for the work that was put into assisting with keeping the club afloat from November 2011 through to the May CVA decision.

The CVA was an opportunity we felt (although regrettable for all the creditors) to start afresh for the club and operate within its means. Mike Quinn and I attended several meetings at the Club along with George Rolls, Ritchie Jeune & Gary Graham as the club “Board” to assist with planning of events, budgets and how the club could move forward. However, throughout this period we were acutely aware that the issue of the club shareholding was still to be resolved, and Mike and I have never received any formal invitation to become directors of K*ttering Town FC Management Ltd.. However, we remained working with George, Ritchie & Gary so we could assist the club in any way we could. We were however NEVER involved in the playing side of things, and have not viewed nor negotiated a single CURRENT players contract.

Unfortunately, we were then hit with the news that George Rolls would be banned from all Football Activity for 5 years. This immediately changed the dynamic of how the “Board” should operate but Ritchie, Gary, Mike & I continued to work as hard as we could. During this period to the best of my knowledge, there was no objection from the shareholders.

The Trust was still managing all monies in and out of the Club and paying creditors etc, so witnessed first hand the hard work and endeavours put in by Ritchie Jeune to keep the club afloat and try to create success and a sustainable future. Therefore the Trust would like to thank him for his efforts for K*ttering Town FC and hope he remains in whatever capacity to continue assisting the club to move forward.

With the announcement yesterday that the Trust and Ritchie are not authorised to act on behalf of the club, it would be prudent for the Trust to no longer manage Club funds through its account and allow the shareholders to run the club as they see fit. This will re-allow the club the freedom to pay all its creditors on time and directly from the Club base and not via us as a Third Party. We were of course only administering these payments initially after the club account was frozen while the Winding Up Petition was in place.

We will continue to perform all our matchday functions as before, until such time they are no longer welcomed and continue to fully support K*ttering Town Football Club.

I trust that the re-intervention of the Shareholders will prove to be good news for K*ttering Town Football Club and that they can provide the investment that will allow our Football Club to thrive and prosper both on and off the field.

I would urge, that the shareholders will now hold a public meeting as soon as possible to inform the fans of the exact situation at the Football Club.

I'm not sure who they're trying to kid regarding their fixture tomorrow night against Hemel Hempstead..

"Supporters are asked to arrive early to avoid congestion in the car park and the turnstiles."

If KTFC was a horse it would be being served as part of a chicken curry in a Chinese takeaway by now.

I was at the Setanta Shield game against Stevenage when only 440 were there and only the PDB and South Stand were opened and it was like a morgue. I'd imagine it'll be even worse than that for them tomorrow night (even if slightly more are there).

[himynameisrob]

I saw that as well which made me chuckle a bit :-)
