Yes - a great article, and in a paper Oyston may actually read. Unlike the Mail (a paper I have nothing against by the way).

At least we are making the national press!
Thanks for posting and attaching this article. Not often I have access to the Guardian newspaper, so thanks for this.

My thoughts?
Blimey!
Going one step further
Karl Oyston
And to think, I was conned into buying a two year season ticket on the back of the Riga Revolution!
Just shows how stupid I am!

Good to read the last paragraph reflects just what a sorry episode by the O's this has been ...

Blackpool are nearing the end of their parachute money now, and will either sink or swim once their finances are normalised. But surely football must take steps to ensure the whole unsavoury scenario is not repeated anywhere else.

Poll: Will a points deduction by FL be this or next season?

Yes, we have probably broken the moral code for SKTY parachute payments, and in future a contract from SKY will probably have to be endorsed, so that a large percentage of the parachute payments stay within football.
Well done the O's

The name has already been sullied by the current custodians. The newspapers are only letting the rest of the world know what we have known for some time!

Just read a readers reply to the article:

...... penny pinching occurs at every level of the club and day-to-day football activities (at Chelsea in 2010-1 the Oyston's refused to pay for hot food at the ground so the players had to buy their own sandwiches from Tesco before heading back North)

Unbelievable isn't it!!

Incorrect.the players had nothing to do with this.Karl refused to pay £9 odd for a Sandwich (and I don't blame him) and asked Matt if he'd go tesco to get him one.probably saved £5 fair play.

Lasagnagate was Donny Rovers in the Cup, after which, Hendry was sacked. Didn't his late wife make it?

It would only destroy the clubs name if what the paper was saying wasn't true. Sadly, it is very much spot on. They don't need to destroy the clubs name, that is already being achieved very well by the present owners.

Wasn't the incident at Doncaster referred to as Buttygate? I seem to remember the story being that Karl refused to authorise a stop at a hotel and laying on sandwiches for the players, and as a result the late Mrs Hendry made a lasagna for them to eat on the coach. That was it, wasn't it?
