Are you taking the urine? Genuinely, whatever happens on the pitch we are so much better off with Stockwood and Petit than Fenty.
You are being selective with your examples. I'd say 3 things which are huge examples of how much things have improved:
1. The communication with fans. Open, on various platforms (Humberside, DN35 podcast, at the games, OS) 2. The apprenticeship/training opportunity in data with a job guarantee for ppl from North East Lincs who complete it. Can anyone imagine Fenty doing that?! 3. The exagerrated 'pricey' (its not, its just better quality) food and drinks at games also come with the Family Fanzone, one of the most innovative and enjoyable additions to BP I can remember 4. We're applying to be a b-corp. Statement of intent to make the club more about community and social good.
Fair enough, get disgruntled with Hurst - I disagree but that's fine. But starting to turn on the new owners?! intercourse me, football fans beggar belief at times.
An impressive list of non on-field football successes. How many points are awarded for the 'achievements' you have listed and how many of them will be 'enjoyable' in January when we are mid table and its pissing down with rain?

How many clubs became successful by not sorting the off field situation out first?... Honestly, you do make me laugh sometimes, our club was in terminal decline, it's facilities falling apart with zero investment yet now we are having investment and a complete change of philosophy you still can't see that on field success will eventually follow.

Our club is STILL in terminal decline!

Because it’s been fûcked over for years by Fenty and us still in debt to him. Look where those transfer fees went.

Give over will you, I think some people on here have totally unrealistic expectations, the club was a basket case when they took it over, you can't just click your fingers and sort that out in a few months. If it was that easy there wouldn't be half a division full of established football league clubs sat in the conference with us.

What investment are we having by the way? There was a decent amount of money in the bank when 1878 took over and the gate receipts must be way over budget.

I’m starting to wonder if it’s even worth challenging some of these posts and posters. As long as I can remember there have been the same half dozen or so contributors who overreact, and spout the usual alarmist, entitled, miserable cobblers and seem most visible and only too keen to do so when things aren’t going well. I reckon everyone is concerned, disappointed, angry even, and that’s as it should be isn’t it, but I think some sort of balanced, critical discourse is becoming hard to locate in many threads on here.
