I think we all thought we were another Man City in the making when Wael and family came in it is obvious even if they have the money they don't intend investing too much of it on the GAS very disappointing we are a bit of a joke to be honest but you never know there may be good news just around the corner! Well I saw the first interview Wael did and that didn’t give me the impression we were another Man City. I think you and others got a bit ahead of yourselves and got carried away by the sound of it. My knee jerk reaction to them buying us was "Why??", quickly followed by " because they can't afford a bigger club." Hence I've not been particularly disappointed or felt let down. Puzzles me why anyone ever thought otherwise.

I like the story that Nick Day when he heard who the new owners were said they had more money than God, don’t care whether It was made up but made me laugh.

DC doesn't tell anyone about tactics, injuries, new signings, contracts, transfer fees or budgets, so I'm not expecting him to blurt anything out about rumbles in the boardroom jungle.

You don't bite the hand that feeds you - and he won't walk away from a five year contract (or be allowed to). But according to the rumours the hand hasn't got enough money to feed him or keep him in his 5 year contract. Remember? When he signed the contract "the landing lights were on" ref uwe And "the training ground will be ready in part for 2018-19 season" Now hes the next paul trollope

Darrell clarke is not happy with the situation at bristol rovers that much is crystal clear in his interviews via words and body language. No new ground,no desperately needed training ground,no big budget,and dont laugh no cat 2 academy. He may have already missed the ambition boat in truth but i believe he will take the 1st good job on offer. Ie sunderland,wigan,nottm forest,peterbro,blackburn,bolton,mk dons or charlton.

of course he won't tell us, when there are bills mounting up unpaid he isn't going to put his own income under threat by telling the truth is he? I imagine when he leaves the truth will out.

Are the owners going to tell what he wants to hear about training ground and ground redevelopment? Yes
Is DC going to tell the owners if x has happened by you I'm off? No
Which is pretty much a standard employer / employee relationship.

I know I'm new here but I have been a long time reader. I just wish those who claim bad things regarding our owners would offer some evidence because 'my mate down the pub' or 'my next door partners best mates dog heard something on the bus' don't really cut it with me. Crap about our owners only breeds negativity and why would anyone want to do that after the last 3 years is beyond me. Believe it or not, Wael knows what he is doing.
Those who are against Wael, can you please explain, with brief bullet points, exactly why you are against him and then add what evidence you have to back it up OR just state its your opinion based on a gut feeling for example. Thanks.

How did you arrive at your first sentence? As i actually said in the sentence its my interpretation of his words and body language in interviews. He must have been looking forward to all the things we were dont forget,budget,new ground,training ground.

Thanks. What part of "top 6 budget" "landing lights are on" training ground open 2018-19" isnt evidence to at least seriously doubt the owners? All of this failed without explanation from the owners. When asked about the loan taken out against the mem wael offered no decent explanation. Zero communication for quite a while now hardly breeds confidence does it?

"name and shame"? Could you give details of the terrible crimes these posters have committed to be punished in this way? People like you make me laugh when you make absurd melodramatic comments like this! Imagine i was one of the unfortunate people who was named! My friends and family would disown me and everywhere i went people would point and say "blasphemer".

Bills mounting up unpaid? As far as I'm aware its the fence for the training ground that hasn't been paid because its in dispute. Unless there are other bills we don't know about?
