overheard a lad at wetherspoons curry club saying its 1250 250 goal bonus 250 app bonus 250 win bonus

PC came to a club dying on its arse after years of lack of investment & generally just limping along doing the bare minimum to survive (BK saved our club & every fan will always be thankful to him for that) but in the last few yrs we were going backwards.
PC had to relearn the ways things are done in the UK & learn on the fly how to run a football club, No easy task, Look at his investment & how much change & forward planning he has already brought in, We interact with the community as never before, the youth structures are organized as never before.
We now have more back room staff than we ever have had & it's getting better.
Mistakes have been made & more will be made BUT PC learns from them then changes things for the better, breath of fresh air IMHO

Too true. Probably lots going on behind the scenes we don't need to know. The fans still want to micro manage the club.

If only there was as much wisdom on the Board of Directors as there is on this forum.......

You must go through some toothbrushes and mouthwash you mike.

Your tongues always up PC's arse.

Sounds pretty logical to me. Some of us don't look at slating the club when every new post is raised.. just a question "Why do you give the club £14 per game and not go elsewhere on a saturday" if you think that most of what they do is not what you want them to do?

I don't pay £14 to the club every saturday. They don't need our money now do they?

Yes, if you have nothing to contribute to this blog apart from juvenile wise cracks may I suggest you log off the PC.

Well done everyone at Barrow AFC for a great year, looking forward to another next

Not taking sides but a forum is a place to debate things that are going on at "our" club as long as it doesn`t get personel people should be allowed to say how they see things! (i know this has nothing to do with andy cook)

I wonder why it's taking so long for Cooky to move?

The forum is for debate and opinion, but it is tedious wading through silly comments and snide one-liners that don't add anything to the debate.

Cos no other teams are in for him, and his agent is still desperately contacting every League 2 team?

Because the season has only been finished a week

Season just finished but he has supposedly been tracked all season.
I am beginning to think he may stay.
Grass always looks greener.

Grant Holt is a massive no for me. Tin hat time.

Not for me either

We have an obsession with ex players with the assumption that in their mid 30s they will be as good as they were at 25

And he wasn't that good at 25 either!
