    Some have and some haven't.I believe he is a very very wealth man in his own right but without looking at his bank account its open to guesses lies agendas etc.
    Personnally I'm very pleased Neerav is our chairman.

    Is your belief a guess, a lie, or part of your agenda?

    I don't mind Neerav, and I'm obviously very grateful he's still putting money in.

    But the problem is, it takes a lot more than to be a "very wealthy man" to keep a football club afloat, even at our level. One of my clients I'd definitely describe as a "very wealthy man" - a huge house, 3 luxury cars, and about €10 million in liquid cash, shares, bits of real estate etc. He's a brilliant bloke, and is also football mad. If he was to start bankrolling BFC, the chances are he'd be homeless within a season or two.

    They’ve spent above the means despite being MASSIVE. Will this humble their fan base? Absolutely not they’ll still be the same arrogant self-righteous P***ks. I feel sorry for the staff employed by them who has to pays the bills of that income that is it.

    Its poor miss management. They get like 10-11 mill tv money. Must be 15 to 20 mill season ticket money.

    This board would be a better place if there were more posters were like BMW and not a miserable moaning ******** like some on here!!

    Your cynicism has not gone unnoticed. I was talking about the 1950s and 1960s.

    I dislike the Owls more than any other football club. Their fans always look down on poor old Barnsley. The tide is turning and the Owls should sink down the football league as far as possible and stay there for a long time. Perhaps some of their fans may see sense and start supporting a better run club. I would welcome them to become a Tyke! COYR's.
