Doughty and Arthur have been good for forest

[voice of truth]

Nigel Doughty has put more money into this club than i can believe. Mark Arthur is a shrewd man who knows exactly what he is doing with regards to press releases and transfers in the best interest of the club. The amount of abuse for the two of them on this forum is insane.

 

[Genty]

I dont get it?

 

[WatnallRed]

Doughty in a fasion! Arthur not at all!

 

[Carvel]

He has put money in. But has failed to at the right times. After the play offs and now come to mind.

 

[ianfontaine]

you only have to look at Mark Arthurs record at the cricket club. Was good for his CV

 

[Eastwood Red]

Mark Arthur... Is that you?

 

[Gary]

Mark Arthur... Is that you?

Haha, I was going to say the same thing ;D

 

[RICH1977]

29140 people £30 a pop yesterday to watch the game... £874,200 if im not mistaken, and thats ignoring people who paid extra for hospitality etc.

How much of Nigel's own money has really been piled into the club? If it's as much as we are led to believe (and I did believe for a long time) where does all out ticket and merchandise money go? Sure groundstaff, stewards and police have to be paid, as well as players wages, but that doesn't equate to nearly 900k surely? Where did the rest go?

And hows Nige going to make his money back?

I won't even dignify the suggestion that "Arthur has been good for Forest" :dry:

Did 29140 people pay £30? No.

Who would?

I think hes doing it as a general figure, when you add food, drink, programme, then i dont think he's too far off the mark.

 

[Scumbaggio]

So we have endured rubbish since the man came in.

except one season of course.

All these changes in manager and one thing has remained constant - Doughty's has been in charge

get rid.

If Notts County have managed never to go out of business then we WILL be able to find a buyer who:

a) Likes football

b) Knows what he's doing.

Apart from nearly bankrupting them that is

Ah yes, Notts County FC, the club who have had to go cap in hand to their own supporters to stay in business, who's attendances have fallen to unprecedented levels, and who's only excitement in life is trying to stay in the football league. If ever there's an example NOT to use I think you may have found it.

That is the biggest load of bull i have ever read on this forum.

Then he must not know how to spend it properly. So he's still shit. You fail.

 

[Erik]

I'm not entirely sure how to approach this one.......

Nigel Doughty has poured millions into keeping this club afloat.

That's all I'm going to say concious as I am of the laws of the land

Actually he has lent the club millions of pounds - at very good ( for him ) interest rates...

Your a mug. He doesnt expect the money back, the debts will be written off.
As for being good for the club, doughty doubtlessly, Arthur i dont know one way or the other.

 

[ShakeyRed]

What are the interest rates?

Oh you have no idea, i thought not.

BY the way the interest rate he charges means the club pay's less tax and thus saves the club millions which is good (for us)
