Does it actually matter.

Why do Barrow fans feel like they have to know everything going on.
Yes it does matter. Because everything around our club seems very slapdash and amateurish at the moment. Straker, Cox now Emma. I want to see people being treated properly and with dignity, not binned because of whichever way the wind is blowing in Texas.

I'm pretty sure a lot of folk "don't hit targets" and receive guidance, support and coaching. Do you think she'll have got that from our hiarachy?

As for inexperienced, didn't she come from a similar role at the Hospice?

daren't we ask tough questions of the club owner? His conduct and Barrow AFCS are intrinsically linked. I remember when we used to care about people but just lately quite a few seem happy for us to treat whoever like shit as long as we climb the league.

Every one of your paragraphs is pure guesswork.

I'm not sure whether any sort of detailed statement is appropriate really. Nor is speculating on here for someone living local who's not a footballer and has family etc, some of whom go to Barrow.

I think Steve has hit the nail on the head there.

After speaking to her yesterday she said she'd appreciate it not being discussed on here. I suppose discussing the actual ROLE is totally different.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

If, as Spirit says, Emma doesn't want it discussed, perhaps this thread should be locked.

good idea..


As said.. Emma was not a glory hunter footballer simply interested in wage, she deserves some real credit and perhaps dignity and respect!

Always found Emma helpful and would stick up for herself in male environment.Good luck in whatever you choose to do next.

I saw it being discussed on social network.

Hopefully we'll get someone with experience in football marketing etc. Inshallah.

Perhaps an experienced commercial person who is being brought in?
New manager no coincidence.
Scope for development
What on earth does a new manager have to do with this
