Chairman in road traffic accident?

[butt lane vale fan]

With him living in Leicester and there being a game on today, perhaps he was staying the night at the George hotel.

Seems the most likely reason.

 

I thought that mate, however someone has said its closed and only used for the Homeless now

If he was walking to the Crown surely you would keep to the Pavements on the Ground side.

Would Norman Smurthwaite dare show his face in Burslem on a Friday night?

 

All I’ll say is - bizarre!

[ollyandpatch]

Only at the Vale.!!!!!!!! God knows what's going on?

[Biddulph_PV]

Smells like bull**** to me. Very convenient just as a.) there’s protests and b.) the transfer window will shutting.

It was Doha on Hamil Road with a red Corsa.

I am no supporter of Norman's tenure at Vale Park but wish him a speedy recovery. However, a road traffic accident often results in a fatality for a pedestrian so Norman might be quite lucky. But I ask a question to those on here who feel that they are "in the know". Had Norman not survived, who would the ownership of our club pass to, and what would that mean for the future of our club?

 

Presume he as we all get older it would be in a will, probably his wife would be a case of could she handle the pressure if she rooked the club too - as we know there are no shortage of interest judging my the number of 50k racked up.

 

 

Perhaps sometimes lucky escapes or misfortune can make you look at something in a different light so hoping for a full recovery and a man wishing to retire & totally disappear from the football world as he causes pain to so many .

He's said in the past that Vale fans should be praying he doesn't have a heart attack as his family would have nothing to do with the club.

“Staffordshire Police are looking for a white male with a bald head of medium build and who speaks with a Yorkshire accent in relation to the incident........”

That's all right then, Aspo's a Geordie.

Someone has posted on Facebook it wasn't Smurthwaite knocked over but he was a passenger in the car. No idea if true

[Iron Curtain]

If injured in the incident then I hope Norman is ok.

 

It does not however change the fact that he is a sh*t chairman who is Killing our club and is trading our existence for his pathetic ego.

Will Smurthwaite sack Aspin via a text message now. Then at a later date blame the medication he was having after his accident?

[vp4ever]

Staffordshire police have confirmed the car involved wasn't damaged

Saw spray paint markings today in the entrance to synectics. Looked like the four corners of something car shaped. Something must have been going in or out of the car park or turning in the entrance. At what speed I don’t know.
