    Who's going to buy the 80% out and pump money in to the Club?

    Who currently pumps money into the club?

    I've spent as much on BFC in 5 years as our owners have.

    Exactly. Not a penny more though until they leave.

    Far more actually. Because you pay for your tickets.

    And you haven't taken three quarters of a million from it.

    How much do you think the 80% is worth? In terms of assets they own nothing other than our Football League Share and, presumably, the amortised value of a bunch of footballers whose value is decreasing by the week. At the same time they have liabilities that include extended contracts given to footballers whose value is decreasing by the week.

    The Football League Share is the key. Without it we don't have a football club (other than starting all over again).

    I'm not defending the 80% but if we're saying that we need investment in the Club then whoever comes in will firstly need funds to buy out the 80% and then some more to improve the squad. I stand by my original comment, much as I'd like the 80% out of the Club I don't see any rich benefactors waiting to pounce on us.

    Well yes, that's a different question entirely and is a fair point.

    Although you never know.

    What’s the alternative? Honestly, if anyone says fan ownership, then seriously get a grip.

    It’s ******* ****. But it’s all we’ve got.

    I don't know the alternative, it's not for me to say. What I do know is that the current set up is not working. It's a complete **** show. So it's not wrong from the fans to ask for alternatives.

    I want him gone but I think a lot want him gone because he's a foreigner I genuinely do. Were things under Patrick Cryne better? I wouldn't say so. We still struggled in the Championship and still had a decaying west stand only half used.

    Under these owners we've found it a lot easier to get promoted from League 1 and they don't rinse our squad with transfers. Patrick sold a shed load of players for way under market value. Stones, Vaz Te, Winnall etc. By comparison a lot of our fans have expected "this lot" to sell guys like Woodrow, Heilk etc long before now. I would also argue that I have seen a lot better days under the guys our 80% have employed seeing our games under Stendel and Val especially. Before that our record for picking the right guy wasn't great.

    They are putting any money in though are they? If anything there taking out 750k whicn conway gets his muppet to answer questions about it.
    We got on at schopp about the results but this lot have to shoulder alot of the blame if not all time to go for me.

    The only reason they didn't rinse our squad with transfers this Summer was because they didn't receive any offers for them hence last season being described as a failure by the CEO despite reaching the playoffs. When will it sink in the 80% mob have nothing invested in OUR club because they haven't used their money to pay for it the only money they've paid came straight out of the club's bank account. They are about as commited to a successful Barnsley FC as the average Dee dar supporter and if those Dee dars have paid to get into Oakwell at least once the 80% mob have probably not got as much invested in the club as them either.

    You know that I know that the board and CEO sadly believe it was due to playing style not covid hence the disaster of completely changing the team playing style this season

    Ok agree with that but let’s be honest here who in the prem or even the championship would have paid good money for extremely fit players last season
