"Well I don't know him from Adam. Has he been trained? Did he have a bad night's sleep last night? Is he in a grump? Fuck it, my roof hasn't caved in yet, I'm safer in here.

No, it's a bit like saying we're in a burning house and can go in the house next door. Is that on fire as well? Could well be ye, nobody knows, might not even be as structurally sound as the house we're in. Why the need for secrecy though? If they're fans and feel they can do good by owning the FLG, part of the club, all the club or whatever, why hide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands on Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 It is difficult to see how anyone could do worse. Marco failed to find out what he was buying and Marco & Mo have failed to learn from their many mistakes. I believe owning an English football club is somehow important to them but staying in the football league less important than admitting they have to change. They will blame the coach and sack him. They will get a new coach blame him and sack him. They will...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely saying that is only the equivalent as describing the FLG as being white knights in shining armour. No proof of either. Neither Day or Dale were Bury fans, Ken Anderson (assuming thats who you mean) wasn't a Bolton fan. Infact Ken Anderson was a former football agent who treated his staff like shit who does that sound like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latics22 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 The longer the FLG remain faceless and give 0 communication the more I prefer AL. They have disappeared of the face off the earth, what happend to the purchases? What happend to fan shares? All they give us is sniping and letters, its childish.

This is my issue with the FLG. We know of two or three fans. Who is behind them wishing to remain anonymous? And if they are also fans, why the anonymity? Surely they would get more serious backing from regular supporters if they made themselves known. It just seems that a lot of fans demand transparency from the current owner but won't question the lack of it from the FLG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its fair enough to ask for more transparency with the FLG certainly if they want fans backing. You have to remember AL owns the club the FLG don't own anything yet. So its not wrong to expect more transparency from the current owner of the club than a group waiting in the wings. If the FLG bought the club then I would expect alot more transparency.

If the FLG bought the club then I would expect alot more transparency. Transparency should be expected now though. We've accepted cloak and dagger ownership for too long. Be it the finances, the decimation of assets or the murky dealings that resulted in an hmrc raid. The anonymity serves no purpose when the fanbase is suspicious of the motivation of any potential owners. The club is as embarrassing off the pitch as it is on it. The FLG have a good chance to get the fans on side but they need to show their faces so we can all get behind them and stop this petty tit for tat behaviour.

But dont forget they did have an open forum where people could go and ask questions. Perhaps another one might be an idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
