IF Owen has given it them for £1 .. where do you think we’d be today?
Lower League 1, possibly League 2 - but living within the means of a very tight and restrictive budget.IF Owen has given it them for £1 .. where do you think we’d be today?
If only they’d have known they’d save £31 millionBST were never going to retain a majority ownership even in the unlikely event the offer was accepted
Make no mistake about it though it was generous ( particularly with hindsight ) as VB had agreed to make a drop hands offer on his case if Owen accepted in principle
Probably National League North
I’m imagining like flies on shit to get their snouts in the troughI’m imagining if BST then passed it to the Muckers to run??
Interesting that both Wimbledon and Exeter seem to cope as did PompeyWe’d be totally fucked up, plummeting down the leagues with little money and nobody at the helm who’d have a clue what they were doing
Don’t worry we’d have had the podcast picking the team and Raggy roped in for stirring team talksI hope they wouldn’t play a 3-5-2 system
With the benefit of hindsight those appointments were awful but with no massive investment from other sources I very much doubt that bst would have the money to attract any better managers or advisors come to thatInteresting that both Wimbledon and Exeter seem to cope as did Pompey
You seem to assume that the ST board would be running the club day to day making football related decisions and they’d all be wrong
Firstly I doubt that
Secondly if true I doubt they’d have employed Grayson Appleton McCarthy or Critchley Part 2
Joking apart TAM that combo could not do any worse! Most of the fans in the ground know what’s going wrong especially away from home but I’m at a loss to understand where Critchley and his 2 muppets heads are it’s that blatantly obvious.Don’t worry we’d have had the podcast picking the team and Raggy roped in for stirring team talks
What could possibly go wrong
Bit worrying that the man at the top can’t see it eitherJoking apart TAM that combo could not do any worse! Most of the fans in the ground know what’s going wrong especially away from home but I’m at a loss to understand where Critchley and his 2 muppets heads are it’s that blatantly obvious.
I’m just making the point that three clubs are/were run prudently and competitively by ST owners inc one with a far larger fan base than us, another who competes as well as its ever done in L1 and another that had a meteoric rise back into the league after facing oblivionWith the benefit of hindsight those appointments were awful but with no massive investment from other sources I very much doubt that bst would have the money to attract any better managers or advisors come to that
I don’t know the full details of the other clubs you mentioned so I can’t compare, I’m not putting bst down but I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t have worked out so I’m very happy it didn’t happen
Exactly Mosser, it’s going to be an interesting summer and l can see 1 or 2 surprise exits from the squad too!Bit worrying that the man at the top can’t see it either
Bet he wishes he’d accepted it !BST were never going to retain a majority ownership even in the unlikely event the offer was accepted

In the parallel universe is Mad Mick going down the training ground to give Raggy what for?Don’t worry we’d have had the podcast picking the team and Raggy roped in for stirring team talks

Doesn’t CJ normally play in a similar position as KM despite him being played as a RWB or LWB, l use the word play in the loosest sense of course?In the Champions League semis, 5-1 up from the first leg in the Bernabeu. 2nd leg already sold-out with 8500 Madrid fans expected at Bloomfield Road, who will share the new state-of-he art chrome and eco-brick 16k capacity East Stand with Pool fans.
In other news, Neil Critchley has defended sending out-of-favour French superstar Kylian Mbappe to AC Milan on loan. Critchley told reporters 'Kylian was obviously upset that he couldn't get in the side, both Jake and Lavs have been electric up top and Kylian, unfortunately, wasn't quite at that level. We wish him well.'
That's a great point but it is a shame that folk think about the fans led review etc when thinking of BST. I am sure that they do more but they should be all over here boasting about it.How depressing it is that so many posters take aim at BST, which has done so much for this club and its supporters. I, for one, think the organisation would have done a great job.
If we were facing oblivion I’d obviously go down the bst routeI’m just making the point that three clubs are/were run prudently and competitively by ST owners inc one with a far larger fan base than us, another who competes as well as its ever done in L1 and another that had a meteoric rise back into the league after facing oblivion
You assume a BFC ST owed club would fail disastrously
Maybe it would
Who knows but if it did it wouldn’t have been by design or employing shite ex-managers
Herts the FLR really doesn’t take up much timeThat's a great point but it is a shame that folk think about the fans led review etc when thinking of BST. I am sure that they do more but they should be all over here boasting about it.
It was Wimbledon facing thatIf we were facing oblivion I’d obviously go down the bst route
I know mate but publicise it more. Change the image BST has. They do some great work.Herts the FLR really doesn’t take up much time
Most is on communication with our club and how we can help fans ( the mascot initiative etc )
I think we doI know mate but publicise it more. Change the image BST has. They do some great work.
Apologies if it's only me thinking this.
I'm locked in advanced talks with Phil's agent to get him in as Director of Football once the deal goes throughI know mate but publicise it more. Change the image BST has. They do some great work.
Apologies if it's only me thinking this.
Don't spout nonsenseI'm pretty sure that without BST we wouldn't have a club to follow. The Oystons would have closed us down in lockdown.
