She may be invited but will she accept :?:

Looks like IL is trying to attempt to get a high profile ex R+D supporter on board to try and say look if she can jump ship you too can join the Kettrin Franchise in East Northants.

To be honest, nothing would surprise me where that particular lady is concerned.
Clearly her record indicates that she would do anything, support anyone, go anywhere if it means that she can retain - or, perhaps more importantly to her, appear to retain - a position of some influence at a club or with the league.
Plainly the words loyalty and integrity have been removed from her dictionary.
And whilst we're sort of on the subject, I have been surprised by how little criticism she has attracted as a result of her involvement in the Cousins / Beasant fiasco.
Seems to me that Thompson, Cousins, Beasant and Ladak richly deserve each other. Being Biblical for a moment - "...a plague on all their houses".

If you notice HT left after only a short time of our new owners being in charge. I have had a lot of dealing with her and she has always been a very straight lady, no the best people manager but i would always trust her.

I agree that certain people can be capable of gaining trust which they then later loose when a comparison is made between what they say and what they do.
Also when you compare what they will say to one person with what they will say to another and, in both areas, I also speak from considerable experience

"]If you notice HT left after only a short time of our new owners being in charge"[/i]

I remember that. Did she not say at the time that under their management, RDFC would be back in the Football League inside three years?
