Is Gartside really that ill....?

It is not documented fact and coming from a friend of a friend etc it may not be true, it's just what i heard. 

Pretty grim if it is true though. Whatever you think of him it must be hard for his family and wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Making a thread like this, without knowing the facts, is very poor taste. I doubt you'll care and continue to make stupid threads like this in the future.

In the context of todays news- yes, it is rather in poor taste. But hindsight is easy after the event. When this thread was started there  was so much speculation and rumour around people ,the club, the future that speculation about what was wrong with him was a legitimate question to ask. As usual there was no information coming from the club. The speculation  about what was up with Phil Gartside and what was happening to him was justified and appropriate. With hindsight perhaps it shouldn't have been started- but at the time it was a legitimate ,if perhaps unsavoury ,question to ask

But Copper is correct- perhaps we should get rid of it now.

Speculation is one thing, but to say the man was on the beach somewhere laughing his cock off.... is very poor taste, especially when he knew little about the facts. But hey, I'm different and I don't like speculating about things without knowing some facts.

But as another posted as said, this thread should be deleted due to respect to Phil.

If you don't like speculating without the facts then stay away from the multiple threads about takeovers, administration, consortia etc., because they're rampant with speculation. One thing that the club doesn't do is publish any facts on which to base rational arguments. Therefore all that is left is either silence or speculation.
It's your choice on here- and many people have chosen one or the other. So-it's your choice as well

Obviously it looks in bad taste now, but if the club had been more forthcoming with the seriousness of Gartside's illness perhaps threads like this wouldn't have been necessary.
