  1. Just in case anyone is interested, I've listed some of the main points from Evatt and Gartside: Evatt Apologized for performances but says there is method in the madness and they are laying the foundations for future success Current position is temporary - no-one at the club is happy with it but still thinks we have something to play for this season. Will finish higher than we are now. Looking for quick fixes in Jan window but will strengthen squad Processes/structure for recruitment at club need to improve No U23's has been a problem - not been able to loan out or arrange friendlies because of COVID - doing lots of 11 v 11 in training to make up for it Possession is our identity - mentality issues causing us to go behind early in games - looking to get sports psychologist in Played Sarcevic too deep at the start of the season Sees young players in training every day - played games when not ready last season - they are talented but not ready to cope with L2 week in week out yet Has learned it's a big job and more difficult than he expected Lots of work being done behind the scenes that you can't see at the moment but this will benefit club in future We are a work in progress. Stick with us and keep the faith - we will turn it around Gartside Club aiming for sustainability using assets like hotel and property Wants stadium to work 365 days a year but can't at the moment because of COVID - success of stadium and hotel more important for us now we are in L2 Events starting to come back to stadium and hotel Owners want us to become a Championship club again - once club back in Championship they will review their strategy On course to pay off creditors - not expecting further penalties or sanctions Support from fans this season humbling - ST sales, ST waivers, iFollow COVID delayed academy restructure Finances will remain robust if we have to spend another season in L2 Important for Sharon to do good in the community - trying to rebuild relationships in town destroyed by KA Building foundations now for future growth Utilized furlough for people exiting the business Wanted iFollow ST pass to include away games but got outvoted by other L2 clubs Averaging 2,500 streams for each away game on Ifollow - biggest in L2 - Streams for Tranmere away highest of season Football is cyclical - dark days now but good days will return

  2. The vaccination program must be cracking on at pace round here. I'm 63 and just received a SMS message asking me to come forward for a jab. Booked in for tomorrow afternoon.

  3. Dunno, you can still spread it can't you? In answer to @Spider's question, do what we need to do to get the UK vaccinated asap, I want to go to the pub, not Bernidorm

  7. No player (or U23 coach) is bigger than the club. Nicky Spooner played less games for Bolton than Ali Crawford. A whole 9 games more than Hasney Aljofree. Stelios, Holden and Campo seem to have retained more than passing interest FWIW.

  9. What a load of bollocks that is. Are these guys good at their job or just trundling along earning a butty. There wonā€™t be a queue of clubs waiting to employ them. Decent employees but thank you, youā€™ve been well paid, and weā€™re going in a different direction.

  10. Yes fair play to NiC and every best wish re his pitch mate šŸ‘ šŸ‘ He won't return tonight as the Napier Barracks fire question is too hot to handle, excuse the intended pun Farrelli will be on though regaling with tales of a bloke having to fill in extra forms for 7% of his eel business. Mate, we have caught a whopper there šŸ˜„ Spider made his pretend birthday party excuse bollocks already and left......just waiting for šŸ§€ to appear.....Will be a long night......The Night of the EU Syringes

  11. They were also employed to coach an Under 23 team that no longer exists. Chuck in all the sentiment you want, but the club isnā€™t a charity, at this time more than any other.

  16. Should let them join the EU mate, they're tailor made for each other. Sturgeon is no doubt costing up to them as she knows she's a busted flush now, and the EU have a track record of giving jobs to failed politicians šŸ˜‰ šŸ˜€

  17. So theyā€™ve backed every horse in the race but only in-play betting when they can see how the race is going, yet want the same winnings as people who picked their horses at the start

  18. Ideally, we spread the love and the vaccine, wih the bonus folks can secure their rightful place on the beaches of Costa Del Sol. But, we need to look after our population as best we can. A great year for caravans etc

  19. You canā€™t know many coaches then. No matter who the employer is, coaches put so much hard work, dedication and make so many sacrifices whether itā€™s their club or not. They are sportsmen who just have a desire to win and See lads who they coach do well. I donā€™t buy into this keeping BWFC former players as coaches because they used to play for us they might not be good enough, hard enough finding good coaches nowadays anyways. If there are better coaches out there then we move on. We donā€™t owe anyone a career

  21. Might as well completely throw the towel in and shut the club down with that attitude.

  22. Have you been drinking? - Let's see if any of them are playing regularly for top teams in the Championship (or above) in a couple of years, I suspect that they won't.

  24. šŸ˜ Some fair points I suppose, but I'm a bit confused by the kids comment. They may not be good enough to play week in week out, the trouble is the ones he's brought in clearly aren't neither. Also, at times seem to lack some desire. They barely make the bench, let alone the first team. Thomasson has come in and played really well.

  25. The jobs to produce players to benefit the first team either by playing or raising finances. Not winning shit leagues.

  29. Easiest money I've ever made. Put Ā£500 in yesterday. Cashed out Ā£500 this morning and left Ā£620 in for a risk free ride. There's a telegram group for wall street bets with 70k members and 17k online. It's bonkers.

  31. Re read and do some more research. No point classifying anything as being best or worst in the world, if much of the world can't provide numbers. Moreover, now new variants are playing havoc, comparisons become much weaker still. Then there's the fact you only look at a headline figure. Meaningless if your trying to study the virus and its interaction with societies, useful if folk just want to have a pop.

  33. He is 18 and not playing in the first team. why would he have a pro deal ? honestly people need a reality check. we have lost a few at young ages but hardly any have made it.

  34. Ā£250k for a player who isnā€™t on a pro deal is probably judged a huge success FWIW

  37. That's all too complex - just sit on the toilet backwards, so you're facing the cistern. Then as you thunder one out, it'll leave a huge monster skidder. Then just scrape your sample from that. Obviously use somebody else's toilet as you don't want to have to clean up the mess afterwards
