Lewis and Petty - 09/01/02

The facts are
that we are a third division club with financial
difficulties and our survival has been tough
sometimes, we have been through rough times but
what these two have done to us is unreal, they
are the lowest of the low, IMO!!! Kevin Johns sums it up well
in his article on Northbank Natter. He says:-
-----------------------------
'When I
left college I went to work as a minister close
to Toxteth in Liverpool and as a street worker in
the North End of Birkenhead. There I met two
kinds of 'law breakers'.
There were
those who broke the law to survive and keep their
families. Then there were the drug barons - no
conscience, no morals, they would sell smack to
anyone to make a profit. I lost count of the
times that I turned to these men and looked them
in the eye and asked, 'How do you sleep at
night'?
Now the
situation at the Vetch Field is different I
accept that, but I find myself asking that same
question to all who are involved, 'How do you
sleep at night?'
-----------------------------
So how could this
have happened? They have tried to make money for
themselves out of a club that is in dire need of
investment, but a lot of our supporters are
unemployed or don't have that much money to spend
and in reality Lewis & Petty have tried to
take from the people of Swansea, they have put
our club very near to extinction! How can they
sleep at night or look at themselves in the
mirror in the morning?
Justice will one
day come to them and I hope they are haunted by
the Jack Army singing Petty out chants. They
might as well have broken into our homes and
stole the money from us because that's what they
have been doing in their own way.
The new consortium
will not be out to make a profit, our survival
for many years to come is going to be hard, so
why can't they realise just how low
they've gone and do one good thing - hand the
club to the people who care!!!
