Really ?

Are you sure ?

Having received the two following comments in quick succession, I thought I would set out how things occurred, and nearly did.
But first of all I would ask these two individuals, if they are still members, or know the former Hon Secretary, have you asked him for his views of the position the Society was in during his short term in office..
Failing that let me know who you are and maybe I'll give you the facts privately and  personally.

Your statement is not really true as your 'coup' comment named several ex committee members and made derogatory remarks about them. To my knowledge none of those named have attacked you Fred and therefore you had no reason to attack them. Furthermore several of those mentioned served the BS for 10yrs+ and actually did an awful lot of hard work for the membership. Perhaps you should have remembered that before publicly slating them! on Confidence broken part 2

I have to say, whoever you are, your knowledge is incomplete, at least two of them certainly did. 
One on the BS forum and on a little used blog of his, and another set up an email in my name and wrote to people, but he was soon found out.
I would also ask how do you know, or who told you they did an awful lot of hard work ?

Fred, am I right in saying that all of the people you name who alledgedly tried to de-throne Mr Pope then left the BS Committee shortly after he refused to step aside? Is it just coincidence then that the BS has steadily declined since then in terms of member numbers, loss of fisheries, less magazines, no junior days etc etc.? Perhaps you under estimate the work they did put in! FM onThe Story

No allegedly about it. He didn't refuse to step down, he noted  he was still wanted on the committee, the vote showed him that.

 The trouble was that all "the work they did put in" was only showing on the surface, there is evidence that numbers appeared to be in decline since 2002 at the latest, and I can tell you how if you have the common decency to declare your interest. I'm not certain if 2002 has any significance, I'll check that out though.

I can tell you at the very least, without going into detail here, that there were serious member management problems when I joined the committee in 2008.

So an awful lot of "hard work" wasn't as effective as we were all lead to believe!

Today with the current committee, there are no problems with management, just problems to overcome with the individual members and potential new members priorities with their finances.


Up date

2002 the year the Society started up it's own Forum....... now I wonder?

He doesn't like it up him part 3

Censored

It seems a certain little person has gone to the trouble of complaining about one of my Blog entries, and
He doesn't like it up him (part 1) has been removed by Google.
Well I won't be censored by anybody, but the only trouble is, it appears at the moment that I have no way of discussing, or appealing that removal with Google.
They just deleted it!
Well nearly, I have the 22 comments still on this file.
 If anybody by any chance copied that blog entry and wouldn't mind sending me a copy it can be sent to me anonymously on the comments below. I would like a copy in order that I can reissue it. That'll save me a total re-write.
It also appears that I have no way of appealing about the contents of that other blog. So it may be that in order for me to have my say I should switch to Wordpress too.
I'm looking into both at this time, anybody who knows how to go about that, you can send a comment anonymously if you like also.
It also looks like I may have to go down the route of harassment instead so I'm taking advice on that from the police tomorrow in Grimsby.
Anybody who has seen his blog since it's inception will no doubt see I have a case.

He's now threatening to get the Blog entry about the attempted coupe removed, he may well succeed I don't know, if Google just remove stuff when just anybody complains, then people like him block any truths and make up their own version.

You only have to see what he's written on his blog in the comments under my name to see what he's like.
You may also like to make am assessment of his character, and why he is so interested in the Barbel Society and Steve Pope, bearing in mind he's not been a member for some years.
On the otherhand is may be a littlemans obsession, especially if he can get others to do his deeds for him for favours.
We shall see

In the meantime just a taster of one of the 22 comments

T'old Rumpelstiltskin comparing cock sizes again. How typical of the little runt. Trouble is his gob (or should I say fingertips) are much bigger than his bollocks

Book release


I put a lot of work into this to set it up before handing it over. It will be worth it.

My order is in.

Lee Fletcher

Following friendly contact from Lee Fletcher in respect of my previous blog of yesterday, I have decided to remove the entry and leave it in the background just in case the situation changes.

I am still upset with Lee, and have told him so.
In my view to pass on information to an individual,whom he knew to be antagonistic towards me,was a breach of trust of the highest order, especially as all our contacts have been, as could be seen by the email exchange, very friendly.
I have no wish and I'm sure he doesn't want to endanger further any friendship we may have, and no doubt we will have that fishing trip one day!
