With all the speculation doing the rounds, we could end up with upto a 12 pts deduction before we even start season 23/24 based on history of other clubs failings in past season's. If you read/listen to GC interview's it sound's like he is painting a picture of what to expect next season, he states in his assorted interviews that survival will be his main objective.
I believe next season will be a make or break season. Hopefully the upcoming meeting all the cards will be laid on the table so everyone knows exactly where we are. The last thing we want is for the club to go into administration.
My guess is JP will then and only then return to the table.

2What on Earth are you talking about? A points deduction for doing what?

3Well, there goes the prize for 'biggest load of nonsense post' this summer, and it's not even June. Not like flat 4, he's normally so positive.

4Sorry guys, do your research and look at the results, listen to the man at the sharp end in what he is telling you. When you add up the total evidence it doesn't make pleasant reading, I hope I am wrong, but I can't see any reason to believe any different.G Guest wrote: May 27th, 2023, 6:23 pm What on Earth are you talking about?

Re: Is a points deduction possible.
6That’s part of the problem - everybody hears rumours, me included. Not everyone acts on them. My one question for you - who is the man at the sharp end? If you mean GC, he has just said things as he sees it. 2 and 2 don’t make 5. I’m pretty sure that the muddy waters will clear a little after the meeting on June 13. Hope so anyway.flat4 wrote: May 27th, 2023, 7:32 pmSorry guys, do your research and look at the results, listen to the man at the sharp end in what he is telling you.

Re: Is a points deduction possible.
9Any reason to suppose there won't be? Still over two weeks away. Some people just look for problems that aren't there
Re: Is a points deduction possible.
10None whatsoever, however I do not understand why it has to be left to the last minute, particularly when the commitment for a statement was given on the 10th May “to stop damaging rumours”.excessbee wrote: May 27th, 2023, 9:55 pm Any reason to suppose there won't be?

11Statement or no statement, the topic heading is a possible points deduction. What for exactly? Why pose a question like this when no facts are available? Discussion is great and should be welcomed.

Re: Is a points deduction possible.
12Pembs that is why the Club, rightly in my view, issued a news release on the 10th May promising an early statement on the financial position to stop all these damaging rumours. The trouble is that so far they have not delivered to that commitment, and personally I find this delay a matter of concern.pembsexile wrote: May 27th, 2023, 10:31 pmStatement or no statement, the topic heading is a possible points deduction.

They also initially stated that the 13th June was to be ‘pencilled in’ as the date of the AGM, we now know that this will not be the case, yet based on that original belief resolutions were actually submitted. So what’s changed that would necessitate the deferral of the AGM, after all the finances can equally be aired in such a forum? As far as I’m aware we still don’t even have an agenda for the 13th.
With the continuation of the Trust’s mushroom management policy, I’m afraid rumour and conjecture is set to continue, possible points deductions is just one more such example. Believe me there are many more circulating, some plausible with others frankly outrageous, the common denominator being that they are all unnecessary symptoms of poor communication.

Re: Is a points deduction possible.
14Well we are agreed on one thing - poor communication by the club. If you were to start another thread entitled ‘communicating’ I would join it as like others I have my views. However, this thread was initiated about a possible points deduction. At the moment, these is no foundation to this, only rumours and innuendo. As I stated earlier, wait until the meeting on 13th and then we will have information to discuss, until then, rumours like this just damage the club.Taunton Iron Cider wrote: May 28th, 2023, 6:20 amPembs that is why the Club, rightly in my view, issued a news release on the 10th May promising an early statement on the financial position to stop all these damaging rumours.
