Quoted from realist
Talk is cheap and easy. We have had plenty of that in the past. This is why I am not fawning over the new owners until I see something positive like you lot are. A couple of interviews and you are coming in your pants. I have seen too many false dawns.


so which of these positive changes have you missed Realist?

1) the millstone that has been around the club's neck for the last 16 years has been paid off and 'has left the building'
2) there is a new Board of Directors and the hangers on, who have contributed zilch, have also been binned off
3) the pitches at Cheapside are currently being relaid and the layout re configured to give them more space
4) the new Fanzone is well under way
5) They have promoted the Trust and as a direct result the Trust now have 400+ new members and are over £5000 richer
6) the pitch at BP is being relaid from next week, and (I think this is right), a new irrigation system is being installed
7) the new arrangements for season tickets are being announced next week
8 ) an external consultant has been brought in to audit/inspect the club's activities
9) Sam Strandt and an external lawyer are already working on the BCorps certification
10) a fans survey has gone out and has already been filled in by hundreds

all within the first 48 hours of taking over

how about we keep this thread open, in order to keep track of all the new developments?

Yes, but apart from that what have the Romans ever done for us?

How can they achieve all these improvements in 2 days when Fenty etc made things worse over the last 18 years?  Well, how long have you got?

More importantly what are the club now going to do with the 20 Aldi value watering cans that Fenty bought in the summer ?

Damn... another opportunity wasted... they obviously should have made an interview with someone from the club with the machines in the background.
Or.... is this a sign of the new times ahead... noisy machines and interviews as separate entities?

Quoted from realist
No fun sponge, I believe in action and not just words. I do hope it works out but  seen nothing to convince me yet.
Fenty was a successful businessman but excrement at running a football club, so why will these two succeed with no experience?
Remember when Runaway was appointed?  You lot virtually called him the new Messiah and look how that turned out. I dont think a bit of caution is misplaced.


They’ve already started sorting out shite pitch and training pitch. On day 1.

Didn't old Holloway use to tell us that the only permanent thing he left at Blackpool was a pop up sprinkler system?
