    When do they expect the league to make a decision on the pending charges against the club?

    Why is the communication from the club at CEO/ Board Level so poor? Isn’t it part of the role of the CEO to be the “middle ground” between the Club and fans? Why is it that we only hear anything when we are jumping from one crisis to another?
    (Within this I do acknowledge the efforts of JAQ but am still bemused that we are getting more from a Director than a paid employee)

    Were there, like for like.? Genuine question. I'd think you'd have to quote facts rather than guesswork tbh. I do know there are different rules in the qualifying stages.

    Why, what are JAQ's efforts that you speak of?

    My question would be regarding Cosgrove and our style of play.

    Questions will be asked about the latter, and our dependence on getting the ball wide, but is that because of personnel?

    Basically asking how big a part was Cosgrove expected to play? Has his slow start hindered our plans? & can we expect to depend less on width now he’s seemingly finding his feet?

    She seems to be the only person from the club communicating (on Twitter).
    Even this is sporadic.

    Ask if negativity on social media and the poor atmosphere inside Oakwell had an impact on your drive and enthusiasm to bring success to Bfc.

    Crazy isn't it . Most clubs dont abide by the rules. And everyone turns a blind eye. We got punished for not doing enough about condemning or acting on racist chanting. We now play by all the rules and others get away scot free. I guess The SGSA have no influence on the EFL.
    And in reality have no enforcement officials.

    Wondered if that's what you meant. As I don't do Twitter, is this official via BFC or her own personal account?

    Well just ask newsbot, we're the only club he's posted about, so we must be the only ones!

    The other week a negative match report on the official site was later edited to remove negative remarks. Did someone from the board demand this of our media department?

    I think other people pointed out that they were not like-for-like comparisons, but just similar situations.

    Its along the lines as most have said the kit situation. I have a 11yrs Grandson Bfc mad would like a kit for xmas the only option is the white kit now he doesn't want it as a fashion statement we wants to wear it to various training sessions. To wear with pride but that kit is totally impractical all white and winter conditions don't go together. Can't we just fetch kit manufactory in house I'm sure a big name logo means very little to a large majority of our fanbase to coin a phrase take back control.

    Itll be interesting. I think the Puma contract ends this season. Summat definitely needs to happen drastically. Not one person with any sense is going to pay in advance next season. And definitely not online. Regardless of promises. As they will not be trusted. If nowt on shelves for school summer holidays. A huge loss of revenue in store. (Forgive the pun)

    Are we going to back our manager in January with the signings he needs or just let him paper over cracks to get abuse.

    Ipswich had signed 3 players by January 9th the previous season to back there promotion push. They were George hirst, luongo and Nathan broadhead (1.5m) who all still play a massive role in there team.

    I know we might have not received all the Liam Kitching money upfront but that doesn't mean we have to pay the money upfront with our signings either!

    They made a fortune in the summer, they can't pull the wool over our eyes with the skint line this time.
