Just so you don't put the mockers on Friday for me and stop me grabbing the £63million or whatever from Euromillions Dancing …….. let me say I did hate the man for years but if I bought the club the biggest guarantee you would have that nothing bad would ever happen to it again would be me. First off old AC clearly serves his master and I'd be making sure he knew who was buttering his bread now and how bad an enemy a suddenly enriched fan could be as owner of the club and his boss. Second every time things go quiet for Chesterfield FC a skeleton lurches out of the closet. Even a well-motivated rich owner like me might struggle with something I knew nothing about. Carson knows where any remaining bodies are buried and the story behind them. I'd rather have him close and dependent than off in Spain sipping Sangria. Third, wherever they've come from, his pieces on the website have been the first things ever to hit the right note. And fourth wouldn't it be just wonderful to have him working towards a model of a supporter-owned future for Chesterfield so that I could relinquish my control safe in the knowledge that the club was now something like Union Berlin and that it would be impossible for it ever again to fall into single hands or malign hands? Running more than one team, having a proper development programme, excellent training facilities, great relationships with fans and the entire community and an assured income stream sufficient for the club to live within its means and debt-free. And Carson? He could retire and look back on his career and think wow I was involved with that, instead of waking up every morning knowing every Chesterfield fan was waking up disappointed to find he'd survived another night.
