Spot on ,it's a case of protecting his investment till he can get rid.
I think he came in and as above gave it a go .
When he offered a deal at the beginning of the season on season tickets I told my mate it's the start of realising assets on the back of what was achieved last season.
We sold the best players and now are running a team with a small squad with no sign of a centre half or midfielder.
Nice one Wintergreen, you started him off again.

Here's another spin on it.
Paul Cox Spunked the budget with large signing on fees and inflated wages. Budget for season gone.
Enter Ady Pennock. Budget gone for the season and continuing low crowds that we hadn't budgeted for.
"Ady, keep us up, but you will have to wheel and deal with players as Coxy has Spunked all the money for this season"

PC is hardly going to release extra funds to help us achieve a bottom half finish at best.
Look I cannot lace the boots of some unwavering supporters ,I also realise there are sychophant in every walk of life.
It was nice to see Andrew Casson in Preston St with some of the staff,dead funny to hear one of them say do you know who this person is it's Andrew Casson and the people
she told was non plus

Start me off I worry if the plan is to get the club to fall through the league's through lack of investment.
Rent a ground and sell Holker Street.
A new stadium
A football league club
Luckily we have a owner with a 5 yr plan but what is it exactly?

Wasn't there someone who used to post on here that warned everyone of this?

Pennock had players lined up that the club have refused apparently so make of that what you will.

Warm words offer me nothing anymore the apathy is killing this club I think back to when Casson first bought the club and the buzz it created.

New stands, refurbished floodlights, shop in town, supporters involved in every step ect...

Now look at us struggling at the bottom signing players like Bignott and Diagne plus youth loans.

Genuinely what is there to be excited about to draw supporters to this club?

We are far from safe Torquay is a big game need to win to keep the gap from the bottom 4.

I think you should take a look at the "strengthening" of the squad over January and google Kyle Storer.

The current squad has 2 Non Contract players on play as you play deals and a fair few loans in places. The squad was short in key areas and needed some depth and so far all we have seen is 2 full time players leave to be replaced by one F/T and a loan.

Yes I know all that which is why I posted in the first place.

What I'm getting at is why haven't we strengthened and the reply quoted above states the club have refused. I asked not unreasonably where the poster had got this information from or was it just speculation. ie fact or supposition.

Google Kyle Storer and Sean Raggett. They both share the same thing in common with regards Barrow AFC

Which is???

no need to talk in riddles. If you are saying Pennock wanted to sign both these players and couldn't then just say so AND back it up with some evidence please.

For someone who doesn't have any affiliation with Barrow (in your words) you don't half love talking about them a former member of this forum.

Some people don't really have an affiliation with the how America is run but they still love talking about Donald Trump.

Opinions, everyone is allowed one.
