136 21 May 2008 - 5:51    Sam : Being a big york city fan our club nearly went out of business, he should go ack to ****ty racing and not into football. I know someone who comes from Mansfield and have gone to field mill when York played them a few years a go. I think it could be a good battle in the conference next year but if this ***** comes in and ruins a respectable club like Mansfield then many will regret welcoming the **** into a perfectly normal club! Vote against Batchelor!!

120 13 Apr 2008 - 14:29    neil griffin : I'm another York fan. Batchelor is a crook - we're still in a chronic position due to his money-grabbing actions and those of that other liar Douglas Craig.

115 11 Apr 2008 - 15:51    kev wilson : the mans a prat ... no more no less he's a prat
114 11 Apr 2008 - 15:45    acombdave : John Batchelor was partly responsible for the demise of York City (along with the former Chairman he bought the FC from for £1) He took the club into administration whilst he himself (as he openly admits) took money out of the club. I have no links with Mansfield Town and no reason to interfere in their FC but all I can say to you is if you truly care about Mansfield Town FC do not let John Batchelor anywhere near the club. He will promise the earth and deliver nothing - except for profit he can milk from you. Good Luck Mansfield.
113 11 Apr 2008 - 15:08    Andy W :
112 11 Apr 2008 - 14:41    Plethora of Jizz : Don't let this fool anywhere near you. He knows what he's doing and he took us for fools and tried to destroy the club. I hope he dies.
111 11 Apr 2008 - 14:39    Tony YCFC : John Batchelor is a cynical money grubbing parasite. That said, he can multi-task - he can obviously type and wank at the same time as he's proved by signing this petition. All this attention an publicity gets JB very excited. Hope he doesn't get hold of the stags. Good luck with the petition.

107 11 Apr 2008 - 7:50    Andy Dearden : I'm a York City fan, but you really want to avoid this man. He has no ideas and will make no contribution to your club.
