This thing at Garrison on Tuesday...

Let me answer that.

Yes, I'd like to see either of the 2 Board (CO) Chairs say they are willing to sell the Club and are open to sensible offers. Forgive me for wanting that to come from the Owners themselves but the CEO made it quite clear throughout his long interview that he couldn't actually speak for the Owners on a range of matters. I suspect this might be one of them.

Not being funny but that commitment from the Owners, not this weeks CEO, would massively change this whole debate.

 

I’m making no estimation at all. As a fan, it’s not my job to find new owners, which is why it’s similarly pathetic to expect to oust the current ones.

Logic dictates they can’t leave till someone else buys the club. And as you and I can’t force someone to buy the club, it’s a bit pointless us trying to force out the current lot.

 

You’re not being funny, you’re being hilarious.
The CEO stated he couldn’t speak for the owners on several matters… but not the one you’ve raised, where he apparently could speak for them, and did so.

I could take you seriously if he’d refused to answer, but he gave exactly the answer you want to hear. You should be delighted, but apparently not.

 

I'd not considered that! I assumed 3000 Members meant active Members. People who had got of their arses and could be a powerful voice of the Supporters.

Your points about the different stances of the ST and the FB group seem to me to be spot on. They have different Agendas. And, assuming (not unreasonably) that 'Conway (Owners) Out' reveals a very explicit aim, then they can only align if, in time, the ST come to the same conclusion. My fear is we'll be playing Penistone Church by that time.

 

Interesting.

Although we have seen a load of players of which the cost as been stumped by us go to the other clubs. For how much we have no idea. But suspect at a loss to our club.

We have yet to see a single player come the other way though and benefit Barnsley, right?

 

Thanks for your constructive engagement. I'm just grateful you didn't manage to squeeze your views on Brexit and your opinion of the residents of Barnsley into this particular post. Keeps it simple.

 

Regarding the team as far as I see it we have lost 1 influential player in Mowatt from last year remember we came 5th, for me, it's not the owner's fault we are rock bottom but the players.
As for this Conway out gang, it's a pity they have nothing better to do.

 

You’ve got a cracking line in ignoring the point when it doesn’t suit.

As for my views on Brexit? I never stated them, I just made a comparison between the 2 issues to show how people can easily be triggered into ignoring logic.

As for my view of you? You constantly prove my point on how someone can ignore logic and instead react in a knee jerk fashion.

And to be fair; you’re consistent

 

I think that means 'your logic' doesn't it.

No matter. Thank you again for sharing your wisdom. And If you could just drop me the details of the Customer Care course you've recently attended, I would be grateful.

 

I like Luke and the Tykes TV stuff he did but let's be right, he shat himself. The CEO had the balls to turn up and he asked him nothing . Can't go criticising the ST when you then have a great opportunity to ask some probing questions and do **** all. It was just regurgitated stuff that 95% of us are aware of. What about this new model? Why didn't he talk about the aims and objectives? Give us a bit more info on that.

 

Is anyone on here worthy of escaping your wrath and disrespect ? Why so personal Donny?

 

Like I said, you’ve a cracking line in ignoring the facts when they don’t suit.

You could give Nadine Dorries a run for her money if you play your cards right.

 

Where’s the personal? I answered his questions and when he doesn’t like the answer, he ignores the point and attacks me for my manner

 

Come on, there’s a few examples..
‘Is that the one where you sheepishly acknowledge…’
‘You’re not being funny you’re being hilarious…’
‘I could take you seriously, if…’
‘You ignore the point when it doesn’t suit…’
‘As for my view of you? You constantly prove my point on how someone can ignore logic and instead react in a knee jerk fashion. And to be fair; you’re consistent’

Where’s the personal? It’s like watching mid-noughties Anne Robinson in action! And I’ve been on the end of your jib too!

 

If these numbers keep changing then maybe Luke just did his presentation to Khaled.

 

Yes can certainly appreciate that. I think losing the supporters bar even in the rubbish office space is a big loss and not sure the Fanzone in any way replaces it.

For active. Regularly attends / contributes to the activities of the ST from a planning rather than attending point of view. Is active in managing/improving facilitating the relationship between fans and club.

For the Facebook group it’s easier. They are a single issue group and should in theory be able to mobilise around a straightforward message though balanced against that they are clearly inexperienced organisationally. So I would expect them to be able to recruit more active members more quickly than you that’s not a criticism.

 

I have shares in the supporters trust. Genuinely. Certificate and everything. Think I may exercise some power. @Gally and @Loko the Tyke Out first obviously

 

Never,I think you and Paul and everyone else at the Trust do a fantastic job. I agree that increased membership may.help the club and supporters feel they can have a clear conduit of communcation. I understand there are clubs in Europe who operate in a similar way. I don't believe the Trust is, or has ever been about, stopping any supporters making their views on matters around the club known.
