  1. Think they would be the ones dropping the bollock then. The club has to be able to manage the situation because demand could be high.
  2. Ashley Banjo exposed him for just that.
  3. Jermaine Johnson... when not on international duty.
  4. Under the GDPR and Data Protection Act (2018) you may share information without consent if, in your judgement, there is a lawful reason to do so, such as where safety may be at risk.
  5. The team was set up the same as Saturday so why would DU change it from the "kick off"? I thought we were positive from the off and played some decent stuff. Their goals were a good strike from outside the box which probably could have been closed down earlier and a scramble from a set piece. Neither had anything to do with tactics, they are things that happen in games. Agree Gardner should have come on second half to change the dynamics and probe more from midfield but I thought we were more likely to go on and win the game in the second half. Overall, thought we played ok.
  6. Fondop made the assist that provided the opportunity. Its a squad game and they both will have a part to play for the season ahead. Good dilemma for DU to have. We should respect his decision on who starts and just get behind the team.
  7. Looks good to me. Some people are not happy unless they have something to complain about. I am more interested in what they do with the ball than what they are wearing to be honest. .
  8. I really think this is where the fans could help the club and make a difference. I am sure fans / local organisations would be happy to get involved generally tidying up and painting the stadium and surrounding land to improve the matchday experience. I appreciate everything Frank and the board have done but the club should organise some volunteering days so we can make a contribution.
  9. New seats look great but would have thought it needs another row. We typically have 5 -6 alongside DU on a match day.
  10. "....so Frank you have come into the Den tonight for £270 of my children's inheritance. You have valued the business at over £20 million, funded directly by yourself. So for a 0.0000135% investment you are offering me a share in a well run football club with a significant transfer budget and a shot at promotion next season. Unfortunately, I think your valuation is too high so I'm out..."
  11. To offer balance, I was sat in the GH paddock and fans were constantly shouting "get out of our f..ing club" or worse after they scored. Nothing polite in that and he did not react. One fan behind me completely losing the plot near the end. I had young family with me and it was not pleasant to hear so not surprised he reacted. Not an excuse mind.
  12. Midfield needs sorting first. Teams just stroll through easily at the moment.
  13. Playing Devils advocate, if the stand cannot legally be passed on and it is legally owned by OAFC, the club may be able to secure funding against the Asset, which could pay off Brassbank and complete the build. All future profits and rents going back to the club which are then used to payback any borrowing and eventually make a profit. It really is a tangled Web and the interview today just highlights what a mess our club is in.
  14. It was chanted in the late 80s and early 90s when Big Joe was manager. I was at Wembley against Forest and was sat behind someone who never stopped chanting it all the way through the match. It became very annoying after a while.
  15. I think it was more likely that he was settled in the area with his family and was loyal to Bolton. His move was forced by financial uncertainties and we would all do the same to support our families.
  16. A great addition to the backline. I just hope he can take a bit of BS when the owner drops in otherwise he will be playing with the kids in no time.
  17. We may struggle but we need to give the manager and the team a little time before we write the season off as a lost cause. The team is a bit of an unknown quantity but we need to get behind them and hope things gel on the pitch. Meanwhile, the three groups squabbling to run the club need to find some common ground otherwise the lot will crumble no matter how good the team is.
  18. A lot of fans are unhappy with the situation at BP and just hope that the behind the scenes squabbles can be resolved so that the club can move forward. However, they buy a season ticket so they can watch their team, who they have supported for many years, play football no matter how poor the product on the pitch is. Its their escape from their own troubles at home, where they can moan, groan about something other than the high price of the electric bill.
  19. How about the FLG keep the the income from the matchday sales that they offered and reduce the 4% increase in rent.
  20. Should make it interesting this season; home support in the Frizzell; away support in the chaddy; FLG Fans in the Royle Stand, assuming they are not evicted. You cannot make this up.
  21. Its PR. If we cannot afford a £40 quid shirt, we have hit rock bottom. He can sign it and auction it off if necessary.
  22. No idea for most of them. Times must be hard when we can only afford one set of hand luggage for the trip.
