Now i’m not one for being negative about my football club.... but i sat down last night and had a good think about our current situation ( i know, i know not a good thing to do !). I see it like this
UWE is a ongoing situation which nobody has a clue what is going on. Planning is about to terminate in Jan 2018 and to date nothing is happening with South Glos. Very Little Information coming out of the club...
Training ground – we have a £30,000 fence which is not fit for purpose which we still have not paid for it yet. Plans still not on South Glos planning portal. Again very little coming out of the club...
DC – Nice new contract for 5 years, but as we all know. If DC wants out he will go or if we sack him he gets 12 months pay.
Transfers – Very little movement again and very little info coming out of the club. When was the last time DC gave a media interview ?
Now i know this all sounds a little doom and gloom but i thinks its all down to communication and we have had very little of that recently.
Come on Wael, we don’t want the whole pie just some crumbs to keep us going !

This sure does seem like doom and gloom to me.

When there's news will get news. Chill out. I don't want to hear about dc's summer break. What do you want him to say.

I tend to agree with you Henbury. There has been nothing coming from the club during the summer break, and this I find a bit disappointing, as the momentum and success of the last few years needs to be built on. Trying to be positive, with players contracts expiring today, maybe next week is when it will all ramp up? More positivity.....I think for DC to sign a five-year contract, he must have been given assurances that the club will be moving forward. We all know he will not be happy to spend the next three years or so sitting at mid-table level. So, make yourself a nice cup of tea, put your feet up and relax, and wait for the fireworks next week

As you say Henbury it's all about communication ... I think we have all been enthused with the earlier stated ' exciting signings' and ' top six budget' and to date absolutely very little ... that could all change very quickly to be fair.
The ground will happen at some point ... it may be UWE it may be somewhere else.
At times like this some form of communication is paramount and without it we all fall into that gloom void!!

I'm off to Dignitas after reading this post! FFS hasn't DC told you we are playing a new innovative system next year, it's called rush backs, and enables us to have more outfield players! If we haven't got a decent squad by August I will be worried, too much negativity on here.

That sounds like doom and gloom but you're trying to cover it by saying it's not?
The issue to me seems to be funding, is there any or is Weal struggling to now finance his plans for the UWE, The Colony and our top 6 budget? I just we'll find out in the next month or so.

Its not Doom and Gloom but will be if the club persist in its current communication blackout during the summer Even a simple "things are moving along" would help !

I'm completely chilled out about it personally . The players who we're going to sign are mostly all still under contract with their clubs and that's why we haven't announced them yet. If we still haven't signed any more by mid July then I won't be chilled I'll be worried but in the mean time I'm just enjoying my summer.

I'm not sure our club is any different to any others, when there is news, we'll hear about it. I think that because of Facebook, Twitter, forums and club websites we all are used to constant updates, in all aspects of our lives,all the time, and that's just not feasible with, what is still, a relatively small football club. Evolution not revolution and all that. I think most of us want more news, but if there isn't any, there isn't any, frustrating as that might be. If the situation is the same in a month's time, then I'll start to worry.

Some very needy people on here. FFS, just chill out. I would rather DC focus on making things happen rather than making press releases that say nothing just to appease a few people who can't cope without a continual drip feed of non information. It will all come together, there is absolutely no reason to panic.
