I've read and heard that sort of apologia for Scally so many times.The simple fact is that he owns and runs GFC solely for the money he takes out of the club. He has no interest in on the field success or in developing the club other than what benefits him personally and that's the overwhelming reason we are still at Priestfield and still in league 1.

Most lower league club chairmen either invest directly in the club themselves or secure backers to do so. Scally's chosen co-directors, most of whom last about as long as a fruit pastille, have been a bunch of yes-men, no-accounts and, in the latest case, a fraudster looking at a very long prison sentence in the USA.

If you just take into account the very long list of court cases and tribunals he has got us involved with, almost all on the losing side it must be said, we could probably have bought half a dozen decent strikers out of the legal bills alone.

If it is possible for 'small' clubs like Watford, Norwich, Brighton, Bournemouth etc to have their time in the spotlight then there is no logical reason why a motivated, enthusiastic GFC supporter with good business skills and connections couldn't drive that success for us. Scally's only talents are for self-promotion and bullshit. He won't find us investors simply because he doesn't want to give up an easy pay check, not because it's an impossible task.
