Good old Shotsweb opinion.
Guilty when proven innocent.

Yep, spent enough time around him when he was at the club, he was deeply unpleasant to most people but his bullying of our younger players was horrendous to see and I personally called him out on it once. When the allegations surfaced, let’s just say I was less than surprised.

In fairness, he expressed a judgment of character which is generally an opinion-based thing...supershots wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 4:55 pmApart from your opinion you have no concrete proofTurnkey wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 1:01 pmYep, spent enough time around him when he was at the club, he was deeply unpleasant to most people but his bullying of our younger players was horrendous to see and I personally called him out on it once.

Re: Ex-Player & Manager News - November 1st onwards
Whilst it is perhaps risky to voice opinions quite so vigorously as Turnkey has I would say also in the vain of fairness that he is basing his judgement on often repeated stories and a wide range of varying allegations that do seem to follow JR around from before, during and after his time with us.chimpster99 wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 4:59 pmIn fairness, he expressed a judgment of character which is generally an opinion-based thing...supershots wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 4:55 pmApart from your opinion you have no concrete proofTurnkey wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 1:01 pm

The old saying goes "You can please some of the people some of the time, but you will never please all the people all the time." In fact sometimes it seems impossible to even please some of the people any of the time
Re: Ex-Player & Manager News - November 1st onwards
I have the proof of the people who were there and the witnesses to the incident that happened, it’s not my opinion. The young player involved had my full support and was encouraged to report the matter to the right people. He didn’t, but Gary knew what had gone on. I have zero fvcks to give whether you believe me or not, I really do not need your validation.supershots wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 4:55 pmApart from your opinion you have no concrete proofTurnkey wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 1:01 pmYep, spent enough time around him when he was at the club, he was deeply unpleasant to most people but his bullying of our younger players was horrendous to see and I personally called him out on it once.

Re: Ex-Player & Manager News - November 1st onwards
After the incident I received a nice threatening text from Mr Rowe (which I still have) saying he would sue me if I made the incident known. I did, and I’m still waiting for his legal letter.Richard Petty wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 5:09 pmWhilst it is perhaps risky to voice opinions quite so vigorously as Turnkey has I wouldalso in the vain of fairness he is basing his judgement on often repeated stories and a wide range of varying allegations that do seem to follow JR around from before, during and after his time with us.chimpster99 wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2024 4:59 pmIn fairness, he expressed a judgment of character which is generally an opinion-based thing...

I think that safely answers your suspicions Supershots.

He swore at me at Solihull. Wasn't even speaking to him but was questioning our football in an early season 0-0 draw. Lovely chap!
