Politiker hånar Barnet FC
Brian Coleman är ledare för Barnet Council och visar väldigt tydligt på sin blogg varför vi inte gillar honom.
Sällan har undertecknad läst något så vidrigt som det som Brian Coleman nu skrivit på sin personliga blogg. Om det fanns några som undrade varför Barnet flyttar till Harrow istället så får ni fakta nu. Här följer inlägget:
The late Enoch Powell recounted how when he came down stairs and picked up the morning paper the day after the February 1974 General Election( which he had opposed and refused to stand as a candidate in ) and saw that Ted Heath had failed to win he sang the Te Deum.
I did exactly the same yesterday afternoon when I glanced at the football results !
If I had the power I would be ordering that the Church bells in Barnet be rung this morning in celebration of the relegation of Barnet Football Club from the Football League.
I know I am not the only Conservative adding a little Champagne to my orange juice over breakfast this morning at what seems like an end to the 15 year saga of Barnet Football Club.
The Chairman claimed last week that Barnet had been "ushered out of the Borough " well now the Club has been ushered of the Football League entirely due to their own performance and not something they can blame the Council for .
Apparently the Supporters Trust wish to exlpore the idea of building a 10,000 setter stadium on the now defunct Underhill site : Not a chance ! Anyway why would you need it ?
No doubt there will be some residual issues to resolve over the future of the site ( Please can the Council have the freehold back for the £10,000 the Club paid for it ? ) but the construction of a housing estate on Metropolitan Open space and greenbelt land is not an option .
I always believed that the Chairman of Barnet Football Club was badly advised throughout the whole saga but the attempts by some elements to make the whole issue Party Political and extremely personal were always going to end in failure for the Club .
I wish the fans and players well in the years to come in Harrow in non league football , but forget a return to Barnet , no Politician of any Party or Local Government Officer and few residents are going to want a repeat of the last 15 years .
Thank you and Hallelujah !
