embankment Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Well , we have now come full circle. Eddie could not sell the club to anyone who has a shed full of cash. So he sort of off loaded it to Ken. But kept it on a long lead. Now with Eddie having a pint with Nat. Ken is trying to off load it , but cannot find a buyer. Total Apathy all round.

And initially when he came in he funded the football club to stop it from dying. In 2011 for example we made a net loss of £26M!

Weren't the likes of Liverpool & Arsenal linked with him before it all went tits up? Todd took over from Rioch, he oversaw relegation, then promotion, then relegation and then lost in the play offs to Watford.Allardyce came in and with some cheap signings and excellent management transformed Colin Todd's squad into achievers rather than failures.He was a Premier League manager, Todd wasn't

It doesnt matter to me what your superfan status is, its just a lot of people used Megson as an excuse to quit but never came back including my mate.
MickyD Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Once you find something else to do on Saturday afternoon it's very difficult to get back into the habit. A decent cup run or league position often helps but, to be honest, since Megson, there's not been much to attract a lapsed fan back.

Thats a good point but every time I cross paths with a lapsed fan all they want to talk about is BWFC Thats the bit I dont get.
Tommy Banks Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 I've been a supporter for over sixty years, I stopped going two years ago after relegation to league one. I still support the club and like a lot of armchair fans I'm concerned with the current position. I stopped because I was absolutely pissed off of going home from games angry about the dross being served up.
Marc505 Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 And yet oddly I've probably enjoyed the last 3 years going to games than I did the last 3 years of going to PL games. I say games, there's an hour and a half in the middle of the afternoon where it goes a bit crap but the rest..

Still pissed off & angry either way not quite in the sixty year bracket yet though so heyho could yet end up in my armchair watching a monster headed Garth Crooks gobbing off on the telly!

As I also said Todd earned his go at the Prem after one of the greatest seasons in our history but I guess you were the only one shouting Todd out on the last night at Burnden?

However my original point is that he hasn’t put any of his own money in I still don’t believe that this is his own money I don’t believe that he should put his own money in by the way, but I also think A supporters trust should be able to run the club without needing a sugar daddy putting cash in that they don’t want back It won’t be at championship level and we won’t have anywhere near the assets we have now but it’s possible
mickbrown Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Todd’s promotion season is right up there with some of the best football I’ve ever seen us play. Along with Coyle’s first full season. Mad eh?
