    That's the biggest problem for me. The complete utter silence. Instead of making a statement of intent, these people don't even intend to make a statement. Worst I've felt in over 50 years, and I'm not alone!

    What even is Dane's role? (whatever his name is, I've honestly forgotten).
    Strikes me that the staff have been told to say nothing. He's certainly not doing much by way of promoting the club, or engaging with fans. What's the point of him having a job?

    Well I've seen him on Emmerdale as often as I've seen him at Oakwell, so you might be onto something.

    He isn't Robert Sugden's stunt double because it's us supporters that are taking it up the sh1tter.

    Link to his Wikipedia page
    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dane_Murphy?wprov=sfla1
    He was a footballer, then a scout, and now the Ceo of a business with a multi million pound turnover. Doesn't that strike anyone else as being odd?
    No business background what so ever and given the job of CEO? Had we brought him in to head the scouting/recruitment team I could understand, as that's what he's done since retiring from playing. But CEO?

    Blimey. That's even more depressing.

    Maybe some fans could come up with a fitting ditty to the Gnarls Barkley tune, Crazy!

    We think you're crazy!!!

    Quite telling that there is no mention of us in the 'After retirement' section. Radio silence.

    yes it seems to me he’s simply a person who has contacts in the game in Germany and USA, so can be used to widen the net in the recruitment of players. Can’t see what he brings to an overall CEO role.

    it seems pretty obvious the directors are running the business decision making.

    It's not our club any more. Better get used to it folks. Daniel was (honorary) "one of our own". This lot will never be.

    The phrase "once a red, always a red" isn't necessarily true. The fans decide who will forever be a red. Conway, Lee and the CEO chap will never be red.

    Daniel will forever be a red. And hopefully a red at Oakwell again some day.

    If I think about it too much it overwhelms me. I refuse to let football or these charlatans ruin my weekends. They've stuck a virtual knife in our hearts whilst trying to patronise us at the same time. They're giving us the middle finger whilst waving **** off with the other hand. I know something though I'll still be in West stand seat 3 O 63 when these tossers have ****** off .

    I agree.
    I wish I didn't, but I do.
