    If they were private figures then they would'nt be stated, i'm sure anyone can ask for details like that at the club and recieve them!!.

    Can't believe some of the posts on the thread today, you'd swear Nick was talking to me in private and i was blabbing everything i heard out!.

    It was a public forum, someone could have recorded it if they wanted too!!
    There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D

    Don't appreciate a lot of posts here basically labelling me a ''traitor'' for filling people in on things that were openly discussed at a public forum. As Claret said a reporter could have been there, also any PRIVATE matters were kept private like how much of the 65% wage cap we are actually at, and how much we have to spend in the window and on what players.

    He named the figures for the training/rent because there obviously open accounts anyway for all to see!!.

    It beggers belief what's posted on here sometimes!!

    Are you havin' a laugh? I don't recall anyone labelling you as anything.

    It was a public forum- tick
    It could have been recorded - tick
    The press could print waht they liked if they were there - tick

    It's just that...........well........some things are best left unposted

    Meantime chill out. Nobody accused you of anything, although you've left yourself open to a few accusations with this particular rant IMHO.

    You were a great lad to go. Now stop obsessing and get back to your x-box or whatever it is you get your kicks from.

    What are YOU doing to make it better?

    I could ahve quoted any number of posts from posters saying (roughly) ''That info' should not have been posted on an internet forum'', in other words saying i went behind the clubs back with ''top class information'' talked about openly at a public forum

    And your a great lad for not going. Now stop obsessing and get back to your Oxford dictionary and whatever it is you get your grammar from!!

    I think we are all going a bit over the top on this one .
    Now I may be wrong but I just think PA may be a little upset that people would choose to sit at home and just wait until the next day on here to see what was said than turn up for the event .
    Now I know a good few who are up in Dublin would look forward to reading in the morning what was said from last night and again people who would have been there only that other things came up and so .
    I know it's a fine line we are talking about here but I do beleive we all have the Club at heart and none of us are out to stick the knife in .
    Now if in future if something is said before a meeting well I think we would all be happy to toe the line and I must say I didn't hear Nic say anything about putting things on the internet and if he did I have to say that I have a second hand hearing aid for sale if anyone is interested .
    Right I will get back to my book , "The spy that came in from the cold " which is a good read I must say .

    No-one said that you were a traitor, gilberto. You were providing a good service by posting the key points from last night here.

    Claret, you are correct. Many United supporters are based in Co. Galway, throughout Ireland, and abroad. It is only proper that they should have access to the same amount of information about GUFC as those based closer to Terryland.

    However, United supporters should still be mindful about posting potentially sensitive information regarding GUFC here. My motto would be "If in doubt, leave it out".

    Well maybe Jeff or Nick should have considered this motto before relying on fans to keep information from a public meeting private.Who is to say it was strictly GUFC fans in attendance?

    Just goes to show you can't win.

    From some quarters they're hammered for not listening to supporteres and not taking their views on board. Then when they make themselves available, they get hammered for not being clear about the ground rules. Meantime they're supposed to keep us afloat and stave off relegation. Jeez, I think Brian Cowen has a much easier job than the two boys in the hot seats last night.

    So do the press not read the 'more appropriate' GUST site?

    I didn't attend because I was working. Does that mean that I am not privy to public information. It was a public forum and if anyone wants to post a ver batim script of what was said they are fully entitled to do so.
    If YOU are not part of the solution,
    YOU ARE part of the problem

    No one hammered them and there were'nt any ground rules.

    No personal club information was given i.e transfer funds, wages to players etc.....

    Fair enough Pa

    Jeff confirmed Ian Foster as his assistant manager/physio. His last position was as physio for Kidderminister. He also stated that Shane Tracy would be returning from Limerick on July 1st, and that Shane is currently injured. Jeff will be available as a player from July 1st.
