I was Fenty’s biggest critic but we are no better than last season
We just stayed up last season.


What a stupid comment considering we haven’t started the 24/25 season.

Stockwood is wealthy on paper but not in cash.
He promised a training ground three years and we are no nearer now.
He has stated he’s not spending his kids inheritance.

Quoted from Yoda
After the York performance we were asking is the squad any better than under Fenty and you have to say no.
Yes i know off field we have a glass barrier, posts out the main and better scotch eggs.
Turnover has doubled but the squad is as bad if not worse than under Fenty.


Imagine how bad the squad would be if Fenty was still in charge and HE’D had to pay the endless cash needed to get BP up to scratch. There’d be nothing left in the pot, it’d be the U18’s playing.

When I saw this thread’s title I KNEW it would be you. You’re a tool.

Nobody who’s wealthy has much of their wealth in cash.

I won't judge  the squad this coming season until i have seen them all play , I definitely won't judge them against  some of that dross served up on dishonest Johns watch no way are any of this lot taking tinnies into training , kicking off with fans or just plain not caring for the shirt . Fraudsters (not all , but we can all name or think of a good few i am talking about )  - ironic given the way his tenure ended .

But the regression in terms of players  ability and team in  the first 2 league seasons is not alarming , but quite disappointing with the momentum we had after THAT season , yes we did great in the cup but the league season first time out was masked with a relatively easy run in  and we saw first hand the slow implosion under Hurst last time out .


I don't have big expectations  in terms of this season , gradual improvement with 'the plan' consistently implemented would do me aslong as we are not bottom 2 obviously . Another season similiar to last then more questions should be asked - i think the board have enough credit in the bank for a bit of patience as does Artell aslong as there is no implosion of epic magnitude ; which is my worst fear if I'm honest . I think it will be either a massive success or abject failure ; never boring being a Town fan at least.

I would like to think that Yoda is just a little kid playing games, and that when he grows up he will grow out of making ridiculous statements..........but I'm not so sure!

I dread to think what Yoda's reaction was when we went down at Burton and then again in 2021.

He definitely wasn't born for the first one and was still on the bittie for the second.
