Funny I’ve just heard the same thing. Apparently the newest consortium member wasn’t happy with signing Hopper. If true I’m not sure where we go from here.

Shivaas can shove off if that's the case.

Too many cooks strike for the first time me thinks.

I'm going to assume this is BS - and just someone messing about

I think the name gives it away as bull s**t, either that or he would of had a lot of p**s take as a kid

That Twitter account was opened in January this year. Also look at the name again…Huge Anus? He’s either a big fan of Bart Simpson or a rival fan stirring the pot

I saw that message which was copied onto our FB forum, I thought it was probably rubbish and ignored it. Here it is

What going on I looked at Twitter when I got in and there was a post from the club announcing Hopper and a quote from him, picture in the gym- no disappeared? What’s going on?
Has Mr Spreadsheet stopped it? How many millions is he putting in to fund his dream signings from his computer programme? Anyone got a line into Tom? This is becoming an embarrassing shambles for COSU?

I'm well aware the name is "comical"

I think we need a very very clear statement from COSU about how much this guy is investing to justify this behaviour? It also lays bare the utter nonsense of a cast of thousands being involved. Yet Kev takes all the stick. Urgent statement required.

That is a post from when he initially signed if you look at the date.

Shall we wait for a more reliable source than ‘Hugh Janus’ before we melt down and start bollocking Shivaas on Twitter?

IF that is true, then I guess that is the downside to a consortium?? As too many chiefs so to speak. I thought we were looking at hopper on loan tho till end of the season, so I can't see why that would get stopped, unless Colchester have asked for a silly fee

That was someone’s bad idea of a joke. It was him signing first time around.

Hopper's signature getting blocked is great. What a terrible signing.

The reason of it's blocking show us we've got a circus taking place in the background.

As far as I know there is no fee at all, we are just trying to help Tom get fixed up before his contract runs out.

Absolute shambles- how much is this guy putting in?? Kev must be pulling his hair out- all the keyboard warriors give him a hard time yet this is what he has to put up with? Can’t be true surely??
