Quote ="Gary High"We had our fair share of defeats this year and the fan base still increased by 1000+ from last year.
You say Des may throw a few wobblies next year if we lose a few games ? Unlike Chairmen from other clubs, he would likely (as he did this year) refuse to be 2nd best and put his money where his mouth is, work his booty off till the early hours and bring in reinforcements. He may be reviled by those of you looking up at us but I can bet that you wish he was your Chairman. Slate the guy as much as you want but he aint done to bad a job has he ? Some of his decisions were questionable BUT in the long run they were the correct ones and were decisions he felt benefited the Clubs goals. The guy is no mug and if any Chairman can get us into Soopa Doopa League, he can. He may fail but judging his tenure so far as Chairman, he will fight tooth and bloody nail to get it I tell thee.'"
Hey I can assure you we DO NOT wish we had your Chairman only his MONEY.
I have never ever liked Chairmen that think they can run the club from top to bottom, meaning they interfere with team selection and who you sign etc...
What does Des know anyway he is a football man come on admit it, RL is not his sport.
He has done well for Barrow but something tells me his gambling ways will go wrong at some point as we all know that you lose out eventually when you gamble. He won't get 14 to 1 odds next season on Barrow will he???
I prefer a quiet achiever like our very own Chairman personally.
