Strange email discussion on 2 October 2012 between Sandy and the CEO.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Craig

Thanks for your email some parts were not asked for but if the papers have misquoted you should we not rectify

The rest I will wait to see you face to face as feelings seem to be running high on certain matters .

Just one point I have not moved page nor being influenced by anyone though some of the things that have been said are very close to what has happened .

Yours
Sandy

I said I cannot comment on what wages where offered to Ally by the previous regime however I have asked Ally to consider his wages and take a significant pay cut. I said nothing has been agreed yet and no contracts have been signed however Ally has come to the table to discuss a pay cut which is good because we cannot make him take a pay cut. Nothing is in writing but Ally is aware of his wages and the associated costs when we are playing in the division we are in. I never once said he had taken a pay cut.

Then as I have said numerous times I will give notice to the board and will stay until you find a replacement. I cannot do more than I am doing and am permanently critiqued by every side at every opportunity.
