Shrewsbury Town Supporters' Parliament - Ollie Westbury reaction

Transcript

00:00I am on the terraces here at the Crowd Meadow. It's been a busy evening here at

00:06the Supporters' Parliament as Gareth Ainsworth, Director of Football Mickey

00:11Moore, CEO Chief Executive Liam Dooley have been answering questions from the

00:18Town Supporters about events that have been unfolding at the club over I

00:22suppose the last six months or so, probably a little bit less than that

00:26more kind of involving since Ainsworth was appointed back in November. All

00:31kinds of questions, so much to come from it you know I probably will not be able

00:35to kind of review it all in one video. Some of the notable things though at

00:42first before the meeting got underway Liam Dooley decided that he was going to

00:47give an update on off-field affairs rather than on-field. The meeting was

00:52specifically about on-field but he gave this off-field update about a takeover.

00:56We all know that there's a you know they're in a period of exclusivity with

01:00a new owner that Roland Whitchley has found and is looking to

01:03purchase the club but there's no there's no update on that so it's not really an

01:08update but it is an update kind of almost. So yeah that was the that's the

01:13situation with that. Questions then were put to the panel mainly

01:18towards Mickey. There's not been a great deal of opportunity for supporters

01:22to speak to Mickey so there were lots of questions kind of thrown his way. The

01:27start of it felt a little bit uncomfortable I must admit as perhaps it

01:33was just a bit it was very difficult to describe but there was just an eerie

01:39atmosphere in the room but Mickey kind of composed himself after that point and

01:44from then onwards kind of dealt with everything that was thrown his way in a

01:47reasonable time. It's actually close to 10 o'clock and he's probably stood

01:52about five to ten yards at the side of a pane of glass still talking to

01:56supporters. Some interesting lines from the town boss though, some questions

02:02about the fact that you know that the investment and the takeover is such a

02:05big reason for him coming to the football club and he was a bit vague

02:10when he was asked the question about you know if the takeover doesn't come

02:15what will he do and he was basically saying that you know he's

02:19come on the assurances that the takeover is going to happen you know we know the

02:23Shropshire Star reported it today well it will be yesterday by the time that this

02:27kind of comes out but we know that he knows who the new owner is so yeah

02:35there were lots of questions about that a few bits if you go and look on the

02:40Shropshire Star livestream you will be able to see pretty much everything that

02:42was said there were questions about recruitment about still seems to be a

02:48kind of misunderstanding of what what what Mickey Moore's role was but but I

02:51think in general to sum up it was a it was a fair evening I think the questions

02:56were firm and there was one or two moments where it perhaps was quite

03:00uncomfortable for Shrewsbury's director of football but in in the main the

03:04questions were firm but fair and fans asked their questions and got their

03:08point across in an appropriate manner we move on now to the back to the

03:14football as Gareth Ainsworth takes his side to Rotherham this weekend as they're

03:18looking to put to bed those away day woes which has seen them win just once

03:23on the road this season
