The party starts when he leaves the Holding company and no longer has anything do do with the club...

Pathetic attempt to step out of the firing line and put someone else there. We're onto you, John. As long as you're here you'll be blamed and hated.

“I have been MD since the beginning of 2006 and there have been massive changes at the club during that time.''

He could've fooled me, the spot looks like the land that time forgot since them lot took over. The only changes there has been is in league position moving the wrong way.

As per the secret conversation thread from mid July. This idiot really hacks me off that we have an MD who is that thick us punters can predict exactly what he is going to do. God help us......

Interesting that he states in a newspaper.

Nixon said: “I have moved everything out, apart from the day-to-day material regarding the running of the club, which I have left behind for Phil [King] and Suzanne [Kidd].

Carlisle United property (IP) taken out of the club?

Thing is, he is still going to be at the club. He will be a director of the holding company and also liase between the manager and the operational side of the club..

Smoking mirrors, he will still be pulling the strings of the two puppets who have the unenviable job of putting his policies into practice. We really are in trouble.

This man will still be pulling the strings for AN, he will be giving orders to the puppets for the day to day running. Our football club becomes more fragile by the day he is still associated to it.
The time has come for would be investors or owners to take over or invest and have him removed.
I fear within 2 years there will be disaster at CUFC if the status remind the same.

Investors can't just invest, nor can buyers just buy without the shareholders agreeing to sell their shares, or allow new shares.

I for one think he's done a tremendous job

In alienating the club from the fans and turning everyone against him.

Thanks for the commitment JN, but we all know it's in the "best interests of the club"

The fella just remind me of the John Major puppet on spitting Image in his outlook and the general apathy he has spread around the place.

A couple of points:
1. I highly approve if a lady (or is that a laddy) being in a highly responsible position. Genuinely, I wish her the best and hope she does well for the club and herself
2. Yippie, I won't have to read JN's 'effing' programme notes ever again. Man, they were inane and made feel like topping m'sel even before the result.
Onwards and upwards. Quiet expectations eh?

Hi, just a point of clarification. As a moderator should you be expressing such sentiments given the need to promote a 'neutral' and all inclusive discussion board ie neither Lapping v Nixon nor Trust v 'non' Trust , for example. Might just sway people not to contribute if sentiment is against them. What d'ya think?

I think all users are entitled to their opinion, whether they're a regular member, a moderator or an administrator. A moderators job is to ensure posters abide by the forum rules. Having a negative opinion about something or someone related with the club is not against the rules. Providing moderators and administrators are not themselves breaking the forum rules, I don't foresee a problem.

I appreciate your opinion and thoughts though, I would hope it won't put people off posting.

Wind your neck in... he is as entitled to an opinion as anyone else. Let's try to avoid the usual PC Bullshit that makes most of these messageboards tedious to read. People will make their ownj minds up, nothing Deano says will have much impact on that.

I think that was aimed at mouldy for the anti Nixon comments?
I don't mind that as I agree with them and can't see any problem with a moderator having an opinion (even if they were a lunatic with pro Nixon comments) so long as they don't delete/ban posters who have a differing view.
