Sorry to drop it on your doorstep Pete Jones, but as WST Chair you can't remain silent any more. It's incumbent upon the holder of that post to pull the rapidly unravelling situation together, draw people back out of their silos, retrieve that reputation, clean it up and put it back up where it was.
Certainly is. I work in London and one of my colleagues spotted the story on the BBC football feed (it was later moved to News).

His exact words were: "...this is damaging the reputation of a football club that lots of neutrals have a soft spot for because of your FA Cup giant killing."

When I told him the full story he couldn't believe that a fan owned club had behaved this way.
