There doesn’t appear to be much wrong with your football club other than a few quality addictions in the summer. The owner has delivered a first class stadium and training facilities and appointed a young manager who needs to be given time to develop the younger players and implement his style and looking at recent results he appears to be slowly changing things. Football fans at all clubs are fickle and demand success instantly and as we all know it’s not that easy at any level.

Fancy a swap

I see Norwich as the benchmark for BCFC, a decent ground, big catchment area and decent owners.

Swede, we’re definitely shite but have the potential to get in league one if only we had a decent owner who wasn’t full of bullshit and surrounded by crooks

It’s surprising how loyal the fans have been considering we’ve been shafted by another dodgy owner.

Also we get bigger home crowds than them and we’re shite and there’s only a few teams in league 2 that bring 500 or more.

Imagine how Barton is feeling

I saw both Leeds & Man Utd at Ashton Gate in the old first division in the late 70’s, love the montage and great memories.

Wasn’t it the return of the messiah if so I would have expected a sell out ?

Swindon v Wombles 8,430 ?

You can’t even call them fair weather supporters as it was a glorious afternoon?

Their home support is poor Swindon had just under 9500 with only 300 Tranmere today

Just listened to him on Points West and away from football banter it’s really sad to hear that three of his four children were born deaf which would be hard for any parent to deal with and puts life into perspective.

I haven’t heard anything

That was a blue rinse?

It was looking like the other plastic northern club would finish below Liverpool in the league but they seem to be getting their act together under the new manager.

The championship looks a really tough league this season where there are many teams are of a similar quality and so difficult to predict.

Losing to the bottom 2 in consecutive league games will make the natives restless!

I understand ?

Cheers, in all honesty I don’t have a clue what to expect similar to last season. we have Scott Lindsey as the new manager who was No2 to Garner so yet again unproven and as you guys know very rarely succeed. We lost 3 players to Charlton including Jojo & Jack Payne plus a few others who were out of contract. Incomings to date are 11 players plus a couple of loans mainly all younger inexperienced players apart from defender Angus McDonald who they are looking to develop. The fanbase still seem interested selling out the 600 tickets for today’s game at Harrogate in under 24 hours to season ticket holders and wouldn’t give us anymore.

All the best for the coming season and let’s hope we both get promoted. It’s the hope that kills us!

We’ve known about it for over two weeks after it got leaked out before compensation was agreed. Rumours are that he met with Charlton between the two Port Vale games which hasn’t gone down well but he gave us a cracking season against all odds and can have no complaints that he’s off although I would have expected him to have stayed one more season before moving on. we have a new director of football in place who done well at Wigan last season and expect a new manager announcement maybe Thursday with Mark Delaney favourite followed by Matt Taylor & Ryan Mason

Apparently Garner was talking to Charlton between the play off matches with Port Vale and the deal was done over two weeks ago.

Yes it’s all a bit odd but the bookies have been taking money on both of them. Ryan Mason would be a good replacement alongside someone older but my gut feeling is Matt Taylor who played for us and managed Walsall. He also lives locally

I wasn’t sure if it had reached you guys yet! should be announced this week and oddly Matt Taylor of Exeter and the other defender who played for us & Pompey equal favourites with Ryan Mason just behind.
