Admin Ian M Posted August 16, 2005 Admin Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Reading through this forum there does seem to be a lot of misapprehension as to Colin's position at the club/wealth.To set it straight here:Colin IS NOT a millionaire.Colin IS NOT a director of this club.Colin IS a paid employee who deals with the day to day running of the clubI have no point to make other than the above, it just irks me sometimes when people call on him to put more money into the club! (Just as many get mildly agitated by the National Press referring to us as "Bristol") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can help organise a middle of the road gigLess clever at organising funding on a new standGreat at introducing the latest fan fleecing scheme... Buy a brick (to date), £1 per ticket on Debit and Credit Cards, £10 for the priviledge of buying an away ticket, £99 for a signed shirt, £40 for tacky official nomark replica kit.Not so great at returning phonecalls to supporters with valid concerns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wookey Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Madger says:Colin IS NOT a millionaire.Colin IS NOT a director of this club.Colin IS a paid employee who deals with the day to day running of the clubI agree with two out of three of these.But, how do YOU know he is not a millionaire. There's a lot of them about, some may live in your street. Keep your eyes open and be vigilant at all times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NATCHER Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Sorry to interrupt this Robins72/Dorset Cider love in, but we were in the "Middle Of The Road".It's a little known fact that Eric and Ian McCredie had a incestuous relationship and this "love" was so strong that Ian had a sex change so they could live their lives as a "normal" couple. Now this being 1970's Britain they were hounded out of public life and were exiled to a small bizarre part of Scotland, where, even then, weird was the norm.Amazingly, a few years later, Ian conceived, and after a complicated pregnancy gave birth to a daughter named Edie.............that's where the story goes cold, does anyone know what happened to Mr. & Mr. McCredie and their bonnie daughter Edie McCredie?????If so, tell me.........."What's the story in Balamory, wouldn't you like know?"

Sorry no prizes!← Intriguing OD, i'd like to have a go at this one. I'm usually pretty good on City songs from that era, but i'll need a bit of help on this one. Can you remember the original lyrics from TD/TD that the City song came from? Nothing to do with T*** & ##**, the over-rated gas duo was it?
