I thought that's what debate was about? We are all entitled to make a point!

Maybe the guy who called the Q and A should open by saying what he will and won't answer questions about.. I certainly would in his position. I still believe that some of the topics are confidential between certain individuals.

Kind of agree with this Mark. I think any question someone wants to ask is pertinent. Whether they get an answer or not is a totally diffrent ball game.

Very true and good points, but the difficulty is where the answers seem to be stretching credulity to the limit or the same vaguely cheering promises. How else are you to get the point across to the owners (and I recognise they don't have to answer) other than giving specific examples?

I don't think this question has been raised in all of the above:
Why did the owner and, therefore, the club align itself with a particular political party during the last election? What did it hope to achieve?

Edit: but I'm not making a five and a half hour round trip just to ask it!
It all comes 'round again.

This is why I made the point earlier, there are now God knows how many questions in the last four pages, lots been edited creating even more. Who now decides what to ask or what can be fit in if we have time? What happens if half of these don't get asked......I, or someone else will be accused of picking and choosing.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

I can't see who else it can be Ian tbh.

Everyone who asks anything will be accused by everyone not there of either a) being a craven sychophant who 'bottled' the questions and 'gave Junior an easy ride' or b) evil lunatics, who lacking the sage counsel of wiseass men of late years, forced our glorious benefactors away with inane drivel and rumours

Or as my Granny would have said, " Fitever happens loon, ye cannae win"

As long as it's seen to fair and honest, there certainly wouldn't be any compliants from me. I wouldn't know some posters from Adam, however after reading their post's over the last few years, i'm more than happy to trust their judgement of the event.

As an outsider ( Tynesider non league fan, working in Barrow) you hardly help the issue , as you constantly pick fault with either The Cassons or club , a club you now deem not to support .

You have complained about 3 players being sold .... They left Barrow to go to Football League clubs , something Barrow are not. Every football club faces the same issue , their better players wishing to play for a better team ... Arsenal , Man U , Liverpool -- so why are Barrow so different.

You are happy posting factually incorrect statements ie the ripping up of pitch for floodlight cables

You have a fixation bordering on obsession with Fylde, who are built on similar foundations of sand as Colne Dynamoes ie one rich owner . You endeavour to bring the level of debate down to that of the schoolyard. Its very easy to hide behind the PC screen ( pun intended) but I'll buy my Barrow supporting colleague a pint if you have the bottle to turn up to the meeting

I honestly think you should seek medical help

He can only answer what he is asked, I'm guessing priority should given to those that attend.

He can always say he isn't answering certain questions. Let's hope it's respectful on both sides and isn't detailed by petty squabbles and over inflated ego's.

Just ignore if you don't like his views and I think it's a little rude to suggest someone needs medical treatment unless you are a doctor.

Well said,

If talking about how well Fylde are doing and comparing it to ourselves suggests someone is mentally ill then lock me up.

If Fylde are doing so well and better than us, why are they below us currently in the table?

Never said better, although in recent history you could argue overall from where they have begun they have come a lot further than we have.

Fylde are quality, don't be jealous because Barrow are miles behind off the pitch.

Thats because of a thing called goal difference. If Fylde had put a few more into Barrow when they kept their 100% win record up against them then things would be different.

Could all be different come Sunday morning.
