I'll tell you how sad the situation is, I've followed Haven for decades and stood on the popularside when we have struggled to get crowds of 700 and stood on the terraces at places such as Victory Park when we've taken a hiding from Chorley, and now I find myself in the situation were I can't even bring myself to go to Blackpool for our first final.
I feel so frustrated, mad and ashamed at the treatment of our players, especially of Aaron Lester and David Seeds, not the fact they have been left out of the team as that's the coach's decision and he'll "sink or swim" by those decisions, but the manner is absolutely disgraceful, were is the man management skills.
Also what the hell are the board doing allowing Aaron Lester to just disappear without the"Fanfare" he truely deserves and would have received if there wasn't so much unrest in the camp.
I'll give you all a quote from Ian Botham aimed at the England Cricket Selectors earlier this year, "you can't fool the supporters",
and to the Whitehaven Board, "you'd better believe it".
I for one won't be back to watch the first team until I'm satisfied the club are back on track as a community club led by people I feel I can respect and trust, and believe me there are a lot of genuine supporters who stood with me in the "suffering days of the 700" who feel the same way.
