Trust Calls on Supporters to Back the Club

I'm on about the voices like thee

 

Why? Did they not know beforehand? Do they not have people regularly making sure the seats are bird **** free?

 

Nothing will be said.

Makes you fukin sick

 

the supporters call on the club to support the fans.........................bit slow on the complaints about doyles..................not just the young un,s who had complaints.

 

All I really know of Alan Bloore is the coaches to Wembley situation at the back of the east stand back in 2008 when there was no real organisation just him with a megaphone trying to till thousands of people what to do.

 

Personally speaking I support and endorse this statement but I think it would also like the Trust to issue a statement that states it calls on BFC to vigorously investigate allegations it has received formally and informally regarding the behaviour of employees of the Security firm in charge of match day security. The Trust condemns any form of violence from any party at Oakwell and suggests one way of addressing the issue would be to have supporter engagement, input and involvement in addressing any future security issues at Oakwell.

That approach would seem to offer the right balance condemning the actions of the idiot minority but defending the interests of most of us.

 

no reply................standard tarn............

 

Gally if you remember we exchanged PM's prior to you phoning BM,I said if my input might be helpful I'd be more than happy to oblige,
I haven't heard anything since,just wondering if you mentioned it to them.

 

As you may remember I had a bit to say having seen it virtually all,I certainly wasn't accusing Doyles staff of thuggery,they certainly didn't handle these kids particularly roughly..as I'm sure the CCTV shows..what was distasteful was the way they singled the lads out making them stand up and turn their pockets out to see (as we know now) their ST books,lads that to the rest of us in that section could see were doing nothing that warranted ejecting.
Hearing the Club statement it became obvious they were using the seat issue to put these kids in their place figuratively speaking...had the Club explained the policy and reasoning beforehand by a few posters on the concourse,most of the trouble may well have been avoided.
As to Ben's statement about Doyles great service to the club I have to differ,Ben's only been here a short time,and hasn't witnessed Doyles inability for years to keep the kids off the pitch at the last match,or when Man U came and smashed up the catering facilities in the away end,many of their fans posted videos of it on Youtube...Doyle's were noticeable only by their absence.I've only ever asked for their help once when a group in the BC family stand were giving a lot of pretty vile racist abuse to an opposition player..the steward said he'd get help and monitor it,he never came back.

 

So what's the Trust's response to that? Because all I've seen, with all due respect, is the Trust backing up the Club. Have the Trust contacted Doyle's too?

 

Pretty much what I was getting at I don't sit near that bit my mate does and he says the same as you. My experience of Doyle's is similar to yours I approached them once about racism and they did absolutely nothing. Also I feel the foster they perception of 'us and them' they are there as representatives of the club to enhance the match day experience they fail in this by neither being approachable, knowledgeable about the ground etc or friendly nor do the seem to be able to desk with issues effectively.

 

Yeah it was silly of Ben to talk them up when he's been here two minutes. A little research by him before saying such a thing and he'd have found out the things you mention like how they fail to stop every last home game of the season being ruined or how they didn't help out scared Lindleys staff in the north stand at the Man United game. They never hardly move fans on who block gangways thus make it harder to see the game either.

 

Seats rarnd mine in Ponty aint been done for 3 seasons so someone is not doing their job of cleaning them or anyone checking the supposed work done aint doing their job either.

Shocking really, makes the club come across as though they dont give a (pigeon)**** as long as they have our money. Maybe thats true three seasons is quiet some time.
