    It was a good gesture from the club giving free ifollow to fans. However, I asked for my refund because they admitted they wouldn't secure the clubs future with their own funds and attempted emotional black mail.

    With respect can you point me to that exact statement.
    All I’m aware of is the fact. Without the fans help the finances would be severely affected. ( irrespective of wealth) That’s a given at All. but some of the so called elite.
    Emotional blackmail yes. But show me a club that hasn’t used similar outpouring. Not defending em just not seen owt that would have endangered the clubs future as you see it. As an asset BFC is only viable if an ongoing business.
    lots of lower end clubs. With a board of directors, are probably seeing the support alone from the fans as keeping the clubs alive. Whilst their (boards) businesses are collapsing around em.
    Whilst Im guessing. maybe BFC has taken a back of the queue mindset. to lee especially. Given I believe most of his business is in the leisure. Sport, hotel and real estate industry which will be of more interest at this time.
