    Hi All

    I remember in July 2011 on the public website (according to his linked in profile) he was appointed as an Associate Director of HTFC. At the time he was with McCormacks Solicitors as a specialist in Sport Law, amongst other talents. Great signing I thought, giving us some in depth knowledge in a niche area.

    Again on his linked in profile he has put his time at HTFC tenure as 2 years and 4 months ? That's today isn't it ? Is he another departure ?

    Really careful what I say as Richard is a solicitor and I am not.

    Richard, I am only going on what is out there in the public domain. I have made no criticism as all I want to do is ask the club to clear this up.

    If a solicitor was appointed for legal matters and we failed to register 3 players, that is hard to take.

    I was just thinking about things tonight and remembered this appointment. Didn't take long to know who it was, linked in helped and I am concerned.

    If Richard, if your brief is nothing to do with transfers then I am sorry, but according to your linked in profile, you have left. I am only going on what is in the public domain and certainly no spreading rumour or gossip.

    Just pieced something together through a bit of knowledge and history.

    I will put that to Mr Weaver tomorrow.

    So he joined in July 2001 and was with Town for 2 years and 4 months? Well I'm no Rachel Riley but by my reckoning he left in 2003...

     These mistakes are easy to make! Laughing 

    Well who knows what's going on to be honest? Did we ever find out who the "long term volunteer" was that got canned?

    I will ask that question but don't you think my findings make sense ? Perfect dates, all in the public domain and someone who is a sports legal expert.

    The club said someone else left...well I aint no columbo but is just a coincidence ?

    Charlie hung out it seems.

    The one thing you have got 100% correct in your post Martin is that "you ain't no Columbo".

    Richard Crabb is still an Associate Director at HTAFC and again, another post that has no foundation, but generates negative speculation.

    And what does "Charlie hung out it seems?" mean

    Why not have asked the question this evening:roll: Rolling Eyes

    so we have a sports legal expert at the club and still fail to register 3 players.......

    so who else resigned/dismissed then ? "Long term volunteer" I believe they were referred to as.

    Who was it ?

    Don’t feel at all comfortable with this thread. It’s conversations similar to this which end up with paediatricians been confused as paedophiles and wrongly targeted. I suggest you raise this direct with Ged at this evening's meteing
