12th Man Chairman Loses Plot

More abuse from the Club sanctioned fundraiser comes our way Is under fire 12th Man Chairman Andrew Helgesen really fit to run a fundraising organisation?  Should the club really continue to open doors for him given his 'customer relations' on Imps Internet Forums? Hot on the heels of his Rob Bradley gaff here he is now continuing to send banal complaints through to this website.  Having written a pro Paul Wilson share scheme piece, 'Helgy' got it wrong by arguing that the writer had suggested he was still part of the 12th Man whch indeed was not what the article had said.  He then put up a piece on the 12th Man website that he and Juilan Burley were 12th Man Founders, which is totally incorrect - both joined subsequent to Neil Hobbs meeting with Dave Roberts at Lincoln City FC.   Now the Self appointed, club sanctioned Chairman of the 12th Man, selective with the truth, sends this through: Helgywelgy (IP:xxxx) has objected to the following message: ========================================re: re: re: The Ex Imp Q & A's  -  Paul Morgan - posted by Gentleman on 12 Feb 12:41----------------------------------------Have 3 more lined up so far========================================He/she gave the following reason(s) for this:I don't like your website! lol (We have hidden 'Helgy's' IP address because we aren't that low.) Perhaps if he stopped slagging people off on forums and got on with fund raising, his cosy little club would raise more.  Out of £2,000 raised, if we take out the £900 for the share save and £300 for Billy's Bike Ride, which Billy had organised himself, he has managed just £800 since arranging the coup that ousted the editor of this site.   Meanwhile, the 12th Stag at Mansfield Town has managed to raise sufficient funds to pay ex Imp Paul Connor's wages and the Lincoln City Supporters Trust, despite diminishing membership, managed to pay for the all weather covers.  If fans want to put their money the way of our needy football club, we would suggest this.   a/ Try to drag a mate or two down the turnstyles b/ Join the Supporters Trust and lets try and get some new blood and new reps elected to break the hold that the elderly fan organisations have on the Trust.  The Trust must also be reeling after the resigination of 'Saint' Rob Bradley. c/ Buy shares directly from the club, £20 at a time.  That way you have your direct say at AGMs and shareholder meetings d/ Talk a business into helping Steve Prescott, the new CEO, up the commercial income from March when he starts his new job Perhaps if 'Helgy' spent less time arguing and patting himself on the back in public he might get further with his aims.
