We didn't come to destroy football in Hereford we came to save a great club that had got into difficulties. The club was offered to HUST who didn't have any money only pledges
I know the PR when we arrived wasn't great but some people had a hidden agenda and did there level best to get us to leave and tried everything thay could even recently on Bulls News it quotes Mark Blandford was instrumental in getting us to leave
All along I have harped on about the hidden agenda and now its as clear as day. MW has gotten what he was requested by Blandford to do get rid of us they had Hereford FC waiting before we even came along.
As for is this really me yes it is I webt through seven months of absolute hell at the hands of some supporters but enough was enough I realised we were never going to win even after paying the Football Creditors we knew about obtaining the safety certificate, putting a team together and paying the council what they were owed most of the debts did not happen under our watch, Where were the investors and Watson and co have they promised to pay any of the local tradesmn they have the audacity to talk to now for sponsorship of course not its easier to lay the blame at our door and play the victim and go for the sympathy vote !!!! when are you saying the club offered to HUST? by DK or by Tommy? |

Who's that going for the sympathy vote again? Seems to me you're on here to try to make play of what's going on with MW and stir as much as you can.

Tommy spoke to Chris Williams who requested a letter saying we were not going to develop the pitch,
That was never possible as the leases would not allow it as you all know as the leases were posted on Bulls News

Not looking for a sympathy vote at all, just thought you deserve the facts
The club was offered to HUST prior to Tommy speaking to DK

That was agreed between them for the letter to be drawn by solicitor
was nonsense really as it could never ever happen anyway

DK told me minutes after we beat Aldershot there was "not a chance in hell" of him selling to HUST.

He changed his mind and never sent the letter. If you were Mr Lonsdale you would know this. |

I was with Tommy when Chris phoned him, As for HUST they were offered the club but wouldn't sign the NDA
If you had read the leases then you would also know the letter was pointless and would have meant nothing, But its easier to blame us for everything, Take a goo long look over the past year and im sure you will draw your own conclusions

Yup. Delighted to be enjoying the club without you. That's my conclusion.

The most saddening thing is to think you may have lost money. Money that has been earnt via hard graft and a long and succesful spell in business. Oh and the modelling career. |

Andy, to be honest what's done is done, it can't be changed, we have what we have, one thing I do know is, no matter what happened, what league were in I'm chuffed to bits that you have nothing what so ever to do with our future!
I do have however, a shit load of rubbish I need moving out of my garden, cheap like, you know anyone can help?

Of course that's all a red herring. The truth is that Agombar bought a club for two quid that he didn't have the money to service (and a club he was unlikely to be allowed to keep by the FA). My guess is he was fronting for someone else, but that person dropped out and Agombar was left holding the baby. Either way Agombar never had any real money, he was all mouth and trousers as they like to say in the East End. He behaved rather foolishly if you ask me. But you live and learn. And move on. |

ya know i almost feel a tiny bit of respect to andy for braving coming on here to discuss things. it just makes me wonder after a terrible week where a critical member of the board and hust comes under massive attack on his honesty and pressure to resign tarnishing the board and trust that andy pops up again. my only question to you andy is if you was all so honestly trying to make it work why did you get stuck in traffic and wait so long to appear and defend yourself?

Andy
If you're still reading this, a couple of questions if you don't mind.
1. The Bond. As I understand it the Conference asked for a bond at the AGM (or indicated that one would be needed). Initially Mr Agombar stated that that wouldn't present a problem, but then baulked at lodging it. From a few things I read at the time, it appears that the bond was to be lodged but could be drawn down to pay creditors. Therefore it was simply a sign of goodwill that football creditors would be paid. Is that correct, or was it to sit in the Conference coffers for the season. It strikes me that if Conf football had been preserved, then, albeit on a limited budget, sufficient goodwill would have been retained to service the ongoing debts and, whilst the season might have been a struggle, the worst thing would have been relegation to Conf North. I'm speaking for myself, but any willingness on my part to support Mr A dissipated at the moment he reneged on that commitment.
2. I'm still struggling to understand why Mr Agombar countenanced getting involved. You were his adviser from a very early stage, yet he pursued the purchase of a club he had no chance of being involved with as he couldn't possibly pass the ODT. And precisely what due diligence did he do?
3. One more. The security you offered the High Court in December. Minds more financially astute than mine did their homework and established that it was almost certainly worthless. Assuming you haven't cashed it in and are not now sunning yourself on your massive yacht in the Caribbean, what were you thinking?
Any correspondence we have had previously has always been cordial, so I would hope it can continue in that way. As mentioned above, it takes some cojones to post on this board given what has happened since December, so respect to you for that.

The first two questions were ones I asked last year and weren't answered. I'm particularly interested in the first one, given that Mr L seems to be suggesting that we are now in the Dog and Duck League. That particular one can probably only be laid at one person's door (unless, of course, there wasn't the money to satisfy the Conference Bond)
The third one has never been addressed. (By Mr L anyway)
and and it might also assist with understanding why we are where we are at the moment. Not black and white, but numerous different shades of grey.
