a former member of this forum I don't think the use of what a young person said or didn't say in a public forum to make a point is right.

There's other examples if you must tit for tat with all the folk that react to you.

Bitter?
Just generalising that those that leave a place of employment with comments as such usually have a axe to grind.

The next social media apprentice; here are your demographics.

Twitter: Juxtaposed political cock fights and celebrity bullshit eaters.

Instagram: Black and White pictures of trees by privileged moody teenage girls who think they're photographers and cats.

Snapchat: Dog ears and [SwearFilter] pics.

Google+: notifications from the one thing you followed 5 years ago (probably Barrow AFC).

Facebook: Wine o'clock morons and beheading footage. Live Laugh Love and inspirational quotes. Such and such sucked such and suches such and such.

WhatsApp: A medium for setting up unnecessary groups for a few beers down the pub on Friday night and sharing Simply Loveleh videos.

Barrow AFC unofficial forum: a symposium of scolared debate, informed insite and rational criticism.

Go forth and spread BAFC seed across the face of the internet...

Apparently, according to a guy I was talking to, Paul Casson still owes Brian Keen money in relation to his take-over of the club. The guy informed me that he 'knows' Brian. He's not a Barrow AFC supporter.

As I say, it's probably just gossip/hearsay; but definitely food for thought...

I heard that after cementing the deal BK kept coming back with several spurious claims that PC found a little hard to bear and eventually stopped paying up. The courts would be the next step I suppose but I don’t think that has happened.
