    Not sure why you'd feel the need to have a pop at this?

    Starting to realise people just type without really thinking it through.

    Great promotion for Clarkey. Rewarding those behind the scenes, who've been loyal to us and worked their arses off, with more responsibilities, career progression and no doubt improved remuneration, is exactly what I want our football club to be doing. It doesn't fix anything else, but in isolation it's a huge positive. Signal of intent off the pitch to get better and improve, with the right people in charge of making it happen.

    Top man Andy. The first to welcome me to Oakwell when I finished my walk, introduced me to Steve Croft, Stendel, showed me around the place (including the depths of the West Stand!) and communicated throughout, before and after and on the night (half time). These are the people you remember, who really care about the club, and are a credit to us.

    Well deserved.

    Is there a lounge bar in the West Stand?

    Is this really news though? I don’t see the point in making a statement about this what so ever.

    Serious question Loko. Despite the progress being made, how do I get over the owners using, on the face of it, my season ticket money to help fund their purchase of the club? At the moment it presents a major stumbling block in terms of my ongoing support.

    Tell us you're a friend of the club without telling us that you're a friend of the club. :rolleyes:

    An internal promotion to a high profile position that is probably key to bringing in substantial sponsorship money? Why would they not celebrate it? Good news is at a premium at the minute, I think this is well worth announcing.

    I can't answer that for you mate. It's a tough one on many levels. But I think this is a positive moment for an individual who has done an incredible job over the last few years, especially giving everything we've had to deal with, and that can be celebrated regardless of the stance you may be taking against the current regime

    “We demand the club communicate with us about what’s going on”

    “ok then”

    “Why do we need to know this?! Pointless news. Boo…Conway out!”

    We've just appointed a new Marketing and Commercial Director. It's a story that would have been covered when both Linton Brown and Ian Leech got similar jobs.

    It's also a story other clubs put on their websites. Here's three Yorkshire clubs at different levels sharing the same update with their supporters.

    Depends which high profile companies they are going to target for sponsorship. Remember when the 80%'ers came in and said we would be using our contacts to bring in global sponsorship. 1st chance they get when CK Beckett ended their association and we sign up The Investment Room from Roverum, not exactly the global brand we all expected

    I don’t think it was a pop. The appointment is good, but calling it continued progress after 1 win isnt…

    Surely the continued progress has zero relation to on the field, considering it's an off the field appointment?
