And one free transfer in so far.

TBF they wouldn't be bringing in Monchi if they weren't going to do any transfer business, that's not really worrying.

Hmmmm.

A few eyebrow-raisers of late.

BK8
Expansion 'on hold'
"yeah but yeah but no but' on the new badge.

Not looking too joined-up in some of this stuff.

I get the feeling that we're doing a full review of everything now that we're getting serious, serious operators in.

People don't like having their time wasted. We were consulted about the stadium and the badge. Now vague comms about something, sometime, down the line.

Sponsorship was signed ages ago.
The development position is unaltered.
A new man responsible for Global Ops has just arrived and likely thought a new branding is a bad idea.

Each and to their own like, but personally I couldn't give a toss

Hopefully they'll pull the plug on the terrace view too.

I understand your sentiment, but some of the people that were consulted still cannot spell Ciaran Clark correctly. We probably shouldn't be too surprised when they're told that they aren't the best person to spearhead the growth of a global brand. With that said, this is all a bit disjointed and unfortunately that tends to happen when you make a change at the top.

At this point, I'm willing to be patient and see what comes out of it. For all we know, the new badge could be a resounding success this season and the club pushes on with it.

But you'd be happy to go ahead with something substandard for the next 20 years just so you didn't have to waste any more of your time?

And if you're going to pause and take a deeper look this might be the way to do it as untidy as it looks. Or at minimum the time to do it before ground changes/improvements take place. And let's face it, nobody outside of the villagers of B6 give a fuck or will notice.

Yes and let the entire Upper Holte benefit from the refurb.

Something 'substandard' that they went with.

It is not the end of the world, but it is dreadful business, and if this is why Purslow got the bullet, I am not remotely surprised.

Let's be honest - we weren't properly consulted. We were given three options for the badge, and would anyone have gone for a wrong way round version given a wider choice? We were asked what was wanted in the Holte. Paying £25 a match was never mentioned.  Like the Lerner badge it was an object lesson in pushing people towards voting for what they wanted in the first place. Consultation only takes place because the Premier League says it has to.

Oh I know and I agree, I'm glad that they seem to be realising and putting it right.

Don't spend a penny on anything but the team on the pitch.  I couldn't give a fuck who the sponsors are when we win the FA Cup.  Getting the team on the pitch right, drives everything else.
