Maybe I'm not old and wise enough, but I don't see the point of freemasonry. It's a bit worrying that the moment it's mentioned someone leaps in with the comment 'please delete'. Are you serious? ?

What, that I find it worrying? By looks of it, other people do too. As for not seeing the point, I mean in terms of it being outdated. Again, by the looks of it other people are the same And Paul/Danny C, cheers

Well as approximately two thirds of all early directors of football clubs had masonic connections I suppose it's not such a stretch that the club may have been founded by freemasons.

Could someone explain why my post was deleted? If this forum is to actually succeed it could do without posts being unexpectedly removed without explanation. Could a moderator explain what happened please? Note: For anyone in any doubt it was a joke but I think that's irrelevant anyway

Anyone know the names of the founders of the club?
I am sure one was a Methodist minister, but not 100% on that..

Hi Junior
THanks for responding although that's confusing.
The post which said "Please delete" at 10.29am which some people have quoted in their replies.
Would be interested to know what happened!

Better Masons than Catholic Priests. At least we can still have boys and youths sides safe in the knowledge that no harm can come to the youngsters.

Freemasons are alright, anyone ever met one? There's one who drinks in my local. If he's open about telling you he is one, then he can't be a very good one! Surely they're sworn to secrecy? All seems a bit pathetic to me. An ex copper I used to work with swears there are masonic lodges in most large police stations.

No thats not the case, they are encouraged to tell people they are masons
The only secret is certain rituals at their meetings although they seem to have their own vids on you tube explaining most of it !
