I've met Fisher, briefly, as have a few others on the forum I think.
I don't care much for what has happened to the club under his reign, but if you met him on an individual basis I think most would find him amicable and intelligent. In truth I found myself rather embarassed, because when I was talking to him I couldn't help thinking about all of the unnecessarily personal stuff that I've posted here and elsewhere. It's borne of anger, but that doesn't make it right, or fair, and I apologised to him for it. He didn't ask me to apologise btw, and he was quick to offer in return that he knew he had made mistakes. I still don't agree with what he's done, or what he appears to still be doing, but as a man he went up in my estimation that day.
I guess the point I'm making is that threats of violence and cheap insults get us nowhere, imho. We've got to be bigger than that.
Only spoken to Fisher at the fans forum just after Robins went. To be honest, I found him evasive and/or a bit dim. Either that or I have real trouble getting my point across, which is a distinct possibility. Much like Sandra Garlick, I found him to be lots of shine and little substance. Though as an engineer with a deep mistrust of salespeople, that might not be too surprising.
