My Blue HeavenTrust me it wasn’t said with any agenda. I wouldn’t defend anyone doing it either.No it wasn’t. The person who asked it, dropped a brick, read the room then backtracked
All he had to say is grew up around here and went to school around the corner
number8Glad someone else has said this. I’ve spoken to him before and agreeI know the lad who said that and you'll have to trust me, it was totally just a balls up of expressing himself as opposed to any other motive as he is virulently anti-racism.
I'm taking no further questions.

Yeah, I have to admit it’s nerve wracking holding a mic in that situation and I can believe it’s easy to drop yourself in it by rambling and saying something you probably shouldn’t.
El MayorFirst was about who’d own the new stadium. I’m certainSuper HansTamTammjd2505LumbertubsTamMy Blue HeavenOr the woe over mosques
That was the first question as well, wasn't it? Sharp intake of breath time....
Am I to understand from this that the first question at the latest open house was someone whining about a mosque?
People were asked to introduce themselves before asking a question, first guy started saying he lives local, has been a blues fan his whole life and went to school round the corner etc etc...
Then said "Unfortunately that school is now a mosque but hey ho" or something to that effect.
It was tempered by adding something like 'because I'm not religious', but it had the capacity to go downhill rapidly.
Edit: Yes, the Eustace's relative's question was first. By the time the second question was asked, I imagine that they might have been questioning the wisdom of an open Q&A session.
Another edit: I have been informed by a poster that's currently not posting, but knows everything with Googling, that it was the first question. Fight amongst yourselves.
Like SHA’s version of Batman, watching from the shadows.
Checked my notes and it absolutely wasn’t.
First was someone asking them to not put a track around the new stadium, and something about the Birmingham Pub Bombings.
Eustace was third or fourth.
El MayorI don’t think he’s said something that shouldn’t be said. He’s sad it’s not a school anymore as he went there as a kid. I’m sad Cradley Speedway isn’t there anymore. If there’s a mosque there I’m not being racist to say I’m sad it’s not now a speedway trackRab C NesbittMy Blue HeavenTrust me it wasn’t said with any agenda.

It wasn’t Rab.
I took notes - over 2000 words of them - while it was going on so I know for certain in this case.
Rab C NesbittI’ll ask generalBlue on Saturday and check
You can but if he disagrees he will be wrong too. 😀

Interesting news that slipped out this week. Hertz taking a big hit on their results following their big bet on EVs
Knighthead had a massive gain on acquisition of Hertz, and their very nature as PE investors is they make big bets and some come off and some don’t
but in hindsight i wish this had been a question at the open house to TW - about whether he regrets this move into EVs and whether there were any parallels with the mis steps they’ve made with Bcfc
allright Tom? do you regret signing Andre Dozzell or buying Hertz? and what about them pink tabards. cheers mate
El MayorIt certainly wasn’t from a person who asked about the running track AND mentioned the pub bombings 😁Rab C NesbittI’ll ask generalBlue on Saturday and check
