1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Bickering and back biting
plague the board room.
Whilst Wise’s men do
the business on the pitch
matters off it are chaotic.
In-fighting is the order
of the day with the club’s
dirty linen being aired in public.
Chief exec blamed for overspend
while directors threaten
to take their ball home.
Lights have dimmed at the County Ground
as some of the power has been cut off;
another director resigns for
indulging in spot of foot in mouth.
Amidst all this fans’ groups
plot a takeover of their beloved club.
Another normal week, then?

Notes

The continuing saga of STFC – more like a soap opera than a football club!!
