Rickie Wallbank OUT

Post by Louis29 » Thu Jul 03, 2025 2:20 pm

How is this guy still working for the club??
Does the club really that what has been reported and come out is OK for him to continue working for the club?
What must sponsors think?
Would Mr Hornby like Wallbank saying comments to his wife? Or the players wives?
This vile man needs removing from the club imeadiately.
Is this really how the club wants to portray itself?

Disagree

I believe in rehabilitation. Deserves a 2nd chance. You never done anything you shouldnt? You believe you should be judged on it for the rest of your life

If your not happy you could always go find another club to support?

Sorry I must have missed this. What has this person done?. I know who he is but not what he’s been accused of.

I agree about second chances but not as a “ General Manager “ of an EFL league two side, Not a good look for the club and if the nationals get hold of the story they will have a field day

I agree people deserve a second chance but not as part of a club that is trying to promote itself as a family and community club.
Why should he be given a position of responsibility at our club.
From your statement you would be happy employing even less desirables just to give them a second chance.
Give your head a wobble.

Totally agree, pitch forks are out. Some people just love to be offended by something, anything

Klueless???
I take it him resigning and then being found to be in the wrong by a court of law means nothing.

😂😂 always a classic 'give your head a wobble'

Someone at the club has agreed to employ him. I have no issue with that. I never mentioned employing anyone else, this is a specific case u started to talk about which im disagreeing with

Kangaroo court?
Was he cleared by a court of law… NO
Take it you must be a mate of his.
Standards that all I ask for and expect the club to follow

He was not found guilty in a court of law. There was not enough evidence to secure a conviction given the high threshold needed at Court. This was a misconduct hearing carried out by Cumbria Police. where in huis abacence he was found guilty of gross misconduct.and placed on the register barring him from working for the police.

Done wrong and ultimately will be humiliated for the rest of his life and ruined his policing career and many relationships no doubt.

However I’d rather have him in the role he is at the club. Knowing he who is a reasonable fella in his working capacity , willing to engage , willing to listen and willing to take criticism than that absolute idiot Alisha Henry.

He does not just ban fans , he gives chance after chance and I have seen this throughout his work.

PS - We’ve still got Main stand racists painting the steps the club won’t be interested
