RM is doing what he does best - PR and BS.. Simple as - everyone knew this statement would be coming out like this.. Predictable. Nice he defends his Pal King as well.
A small gesture by me but after about 20 years of it being delivered I have cancelled the Echo.
Fed up with their inaccuracies on many subjects.
UTB.

I have been sticking up for Ron Martin all week, but I'd like another statement to just clear up a few things that don't quite add up.
Why did they not pay Prior the small amount of £4000 that has now cost the club a further £10,000 and dragged the clubs good name through the mud.
Why let Geoff King speak to the echo in the first place, the guy is a nightmare and totally out of touch with supporters and the right and wrong things to say.
The local radio station has today said that Tilly has said that Revs was not top of his list to be loaned out. Again a contrast to what Ron has said.
Once and for all, please come out and say if we are in the doo doo financially, we suspect it, all the signs are there, we can take it, we understand it, we just don't like somebody like Geoff King giving us B.S.
Can't make it tonight for family reasons, but if someone would kindly ask any of these questions, it would be much appreciated.
It's true our defence isn't great.
What I think will be interesting is seeing Herd play at left back on Friday. He can't be anywhere near match fit, at least for a L1 game, so will probably look great for 10 mins or so and then understandably fail badly for the rest of the match.
I hope our fans do not get on his back and I hope Tilly isn't looking for an excuse to say 'I told you he wasn't ready for first team football'.
Does Tilly's interview confirm Herd will start then? I assumed with Herd out of favour our defence tomorrow would be either:
RB Sankofa
CB Francis
CB M'voto
LB Barrett
or
RB Sankofa
CB M'voto
CB Barrett
LB Francis
the Prior stuff would be good if he could explain why it took an Echo article for him to stump up the cash.
beefy you know ?@?@ all bout anything - herd looked out of depth when ? Half fit centre back ? Are you available for orient ???i know. How dare we question anything we're told, eh?
Personally i'm not going to take as gospel any document which describes our defence as "good". We have one centre-half who is half fit, one who has one league start in his career, a midget left back who has been frozen out this season and who looked out of his depth last year, a narcaliptic right back and a much maligned reserve right back who has also been frozen out all season. I doubt even fbm could defend that lot ;)
lb herddoesn't really mention the match. I presume that herd will start so that francis can stay on the right and barrett can stay in the middle.
Had Ron Martin stuck to calmly answering the posers put to him, it would have been a valuable statement. He does blot his copy book with over defensive bordering on paranoid vitriol against the Echo clearly aiming to harm their sales with SUFC fans. Why this could be is not for me to say. It may just be he is a vindictive person.
The Revell business is valuable information, the Prior stuff would be good if he could explain why it took an Echo article for him to stump up the cash. But his credibility will inevitably be subtracted in the eyes of rational thinkers by the attack on a newspaper which, whatever people may believe, has done more than its fair share of promoting the club in the community over the years. Finally, the Martin McNeill comment was untrue and unbelievably childish.
McCormack - no comment.
Overall, the statement does clear a couple of things up, so it's good he came out and said something.
What the 10k Prior promised to pay to Little Havens from his share of the proceeds of a testimonial, even though the takings on the night were only 4K.
The 10K which Ron has kindly paid out of his, or the clubs (same thing really) pocket?
The money for Little Havens which was a deal between Prior and the charity and, shouldn't have had anything to do with Ron or the club?
The only thing the article made Ron do is a good thing. Obviously he has managed to recover something lost through GK's terrible comments, if indeed his words weren't taken out of context, but I wouldn't begrudge him that and, I'm sure neither would Little Havens.
Contractual obligations to Prior not Havens.So how come Geoff Kings response was to admit that monies were owed to the hospice and the club had an obligaton to pay ?
I find your comments bizarre!
A newspaper attacks the management of the club and their integrity and you don't expect a response?
RM has also said that there was no arrangement between the club and Havens to pay them money and the benefit match accrued only £4,000. He pays £10,000 as a gesture, well over the match proceeds, and you say the Echo made him stump up the cash?
You obviously haven't got a clue what the club already does for charity and the community. An unbelievable posting.
