    Have to say, I expected something different with the headline.

    Well probably fewer will come than you think, if you continue to go through managers and half decent laikers like bog roll.

    I thought they were going to ask us if we had any good ideas as to who to appoint next.

    If things don’t alter in the next few days then it’s a wasted message as far as I’m concerned.

    That was incredibly badly timed. As per usual with BFC at the moment.

    Think they get a pass on this one. Looks like clubs around the country are posting the same message at the same time to force the government in to action. Just two examples I've seen on Twitter along with Norwich and a couple of others.

    Is it true we have sold all our seats and will need to get some deck chairs before we can let fans in, probably 2 months after all other clubs

    Yes but they must have known how it would look and so even if other clubs were posting it the correct thing would be to put out an apology before putting out this.

    Take it how you want to take it mate. I don't have an issue with us getting together with every club in the country to put out the same message/news article on the same day.

    It's separate to everything going on. It isn't trolling or being disrespectful in my opinion, but each to their own.

    I've no problem with them putting that out but if nobody at the club realised how it would look then they're all absolute useless. If they did know how it would look as anyone with half a brain did then they should have apologised for their previous behaviour this morning.
    The fact they didn't shows just how arrogant they are imo

    I get that. But call it something else. Considering we have other stuff going off at the same time.

    Every club has started it with the same title though? It's a united front to try and challenge this s**t show of a government. This is the least of our worries mate surely?

    Ok so entitle it the football communities open letter to supporters etc. You don’t stray into this territory then. I don’t think the cause care about the strap-line used.

    I'm just saying it looks like a copy and paste job that every club has pretty much followed. Did we need to be any different?

    I guess it depends if you can separate from the day to day comms that need to continue and be frustrated, annoyed, nonplussed about the other stuff at the same time. I understand some angst towards it, but saying the club are trolling the fans appears wide of the mark.

    Never said it was trolling just in poor form but we spend quite a lot of time in that place at the moment.

    Saw the headline and thought our board were going to try and send some much needed positive vibes to us and say sorry for our badly they spoke of Ludewig at a time when we are promoting mental health.

    Plenty of **** to criticise the board over this isn’t one of them. It’s communication from various clubs challenging the govt position. Something decent at last.
