See, that's what I don't get about many posters on here. You are sure it's 'petty', but you haven't a clue really, you're just name calling in the playground, to look like billy bigboll1cks. The time to slate the chairman, is if and when the reason is made public, and it is indeed petty, bet a dollar, you wouldn't apoligise for your massive over reaction!
ps...I never said the club was wrong, it's how you have interpreted it!
