No I said their owners invest money into tbe ckub and are substantially wealthier in terms of their commitment and financial clout

as I said the operating loss was £3 m - essentially the club relies on asset Disposal to survive - 33% increase in wages also isn’t modest The operating model is changing. Players are essentially stock. Clubs’ recruitment strategies are about delivering a mark-up on player transactions. So...

I totally agree as do most BFC fans, the worrying thing is these owners seem hell bent on buying the stadium, which could put an end to it.

All sorts since May by my reckoning 7 back room staff have jumped ship, head coach, CEO, Fitness and Physiotherapist, amongst others, the owners have closed down one of the stands saying it’s not safe, the council say it past a safety test last month and theirs nothing wrong with it, the club still has a 5 year lease but they’re trying to get out of it, so they can move us to the New York Stadium, which they hope will then force the council to sell them the ground. The previous owners are trying to buy the club back because they’ve realised they’ve sold it to a pack of cünts, and the head coach is shite at absolutely everything he does.

In the last 5 games we’ve had a combined, 64 shots at goal , only got 20 on target, and scored none of them, apart from a penalty kick.

Another thing, last season we had hardly any injuries, and we had arguably the fittest squad in the league. Over the summer we had two fitness coaches, a physio and last month the head physio poached from us, and only replaced them last week, and today we had 6 players missing from the match day squad through injury, that would be in the starting 11.

Called Barnsley relegation after they somehow jammed their way to beating us and they were 9/1. Near enough odds on now

Oh shyte, we know how this feels...Many will defend what our owners did to our club taking us out of our city. At the end of the day the fans are coming back after all that happened to them.

He actually did say these things , but I don't know he seems OK, if not a little bit of an overly exaggerated view of his own football club

He’s been banned from his own forum so you keep saying . . . . so what? Wtf fuck is wrong with you ? Complete and utter bell end aren’t ya,

Last season we finished top 5 on a bottom five budget, because of our budget we’ve lost our staff and coach and players, we’ll bounce back once we rebuild as we have recently we will again.

Only 2 really, it’s the loss of the CEO, sports scientist, fitness coaches and physio’s, that’s set us back, nearly as much as losing the head coach, it’s taken far too long to replace them, their replacement seem to have a good pedigree but they’ll need time to settle in.
We’ve had a really fit and relatively injury free squad for a few seasons now we’ve got 6 players out every week and we’re nowhere near as fit as we was.

What a shitty weird post. Of all fans in the football league we should probably know that digging out another club going through owner turmoil, is probably quite shit. Although wouldn’t expect anything else from OP.

They’ll have been responsible for quite a few goals, due to keeping our best players on the pitch.

He was our only loan player in the second half of last season, because as I say loaning players is a last resort for our recruitment committee, he came in on the first of February (transfer deadline day) due to the fact we couldn’t get a deal done for our number one target, who we did manage to sign this summer but hasn’t played yet due to injury, luckily he’s only a few weeks away from full fitness now, but unfortunately we’ve been hearing this in press conferences for the last two months.

I did wonder what was going on at Barnsley. There seems to be no consistency there. They are winning/drawing or losing matches which largely has no reflection on opponents playing strength. They should be having more positive results at the lower end of the table than they are at the top.



Barnsley's form is also dropping like a stone.



I better put in a edit. This is ignoring home and away. May be this will even things up.
