To Kevin Ward, Editor, Worcester Evening News.
Your newspaper has asked Mr Boddy some interesting questions. He has given you NO concrete answers. Instead he's been vague and, frankly, untruthful. Is this the way for a Chairman of a city institution to behave? This club has served our community for over a century. Under his leadership he has lost half the support; half his board; the President; the website - and even the mascot!
He's stalled on presenting accounts and calling an agm. His statements on the club's finances often contradict his previous comments.
He has run his other clubs into oblivion. Many of us believe he is not to be trusted, and that the same fate awaits WCFC. Had Steve's interview been with a director of the Swan Theatre, or a funding body of the Cathedral would you have accepted his answers at face value? Or would you see that a valuable local amenity is in danger and that further investigation is called for?
As the editor of our local newspaper I implore you to keep asking questions. If Mr Boddy has the answers - fine. If not he needs flushing out (or down) before yet another facility is lost to our great City forever.
