    You see its communication like this i don't like. "Logistics reasons" surely a slightly more expanding explanation is possible.

    They are hoping to announce the new manager at the end of July and he was going to the Blackburn match.
    They didn't want him to get used to seeing some of the players which will be sold before he starts.
    :D:D

    Exactly. It isn't hard to say what the logistical reasons are. Our communication over the last couple of years as been the worst I've ever known it. Not sure what changed but something did and it made communication absolutely appalling. And I'm not talking about nice soundbitey interviews or meetings, im talking about the absolute bread and butter piece of piss simple stuff like why are we shutting the west stand, where are the vouchers people payed for, why have some fans been forced to pay for printed tickets and some get free digital ones etc. It's amateur and embarrassing really and shows a complete disregard for fans and it's something that Khaled and JAQ and the rest need to sort out and frankly it could be sorted out instantly by employing someone who gave a toss about communication and understood it because it seems that at the moment we don't have anyone who does or at least not in a senior enough position to action it anyway.

    It's because they don't want us to see what we're missing in Brittain isn't it?

    We might have to pay rental at the other venue although, when you've factored in the cost of car park attendants, security and turnstile operators at Oakwell, Penistone Church, or some other venue, might work out cheaper.

    Couldn't we play it at Bell end view, as Wakey RL are desperate for a few extra sheckels. :p

    A League 1 professional club with aspirations of been an established Championship team....... This is something you would expect from athersley rec

    No offence to Athersley Rec I was just illustrating the difference in levels

    True! And why move it to a different venue? Why couldn't it be played behind closed doors at Oakwell so we don't have to pay rental costs at another venue?

    Maybe the groundsman has indicated that the pitch isn't quite ready?

    It's off because of reasons. Seems perfectly clear to me.
