I'm not sure of the answer to your questions but I assume if they want to invest in academy this will, hopefully, lead to some kind of new training ground. Wow, how things have changed in just a matter of days.

Happy to announce Lee Mansell will be joining us for the next edition of GasCast.
Please get your questions in now!!!
We aim to ask as many questions as we can, and hopefully stuff that you won't hear in the usual club interviews.
We can't promise we will take all questions but we will try our damn best.
Get involved Gasheads!!

He's ok at what he does. The music is often poor and the PA is awful. It also sometimes feels disjointed and cobbled together so maybe he just needs a better wingman. Nicks strength is when he mixes in and talks to the supporters. (home and away fans) Fair play to him though because what he does is easy to criticize but 99% would run a mile if we were asked to do it. It seems like I'm the only person who can hear the p.a system fine! I stand middle left in The Blackthorn, and seriously I don't have any problems hearing it. Likewise. although occasionally it does let out a massive white noise or make a few random banging sounds. Don't make the joke...

Nick Day is an excellent PA, I wasn't much of a fan of the 'asking for money' gag to be honest, but the rest was decent.

‘I believe to enjoy a game, you have to be there with the fans, singing, urging your team on,’ Al-Qadi told Sportsmail. ‘So if they will have me" Love that!

He did seem pretty frustrated in the post match interview but hopefully as the days go on he will talk to them more and feel more comfortable. Wasn't the best time to announce it but these things have to be kept in the dark for obvious reasons.

I haven't listened to any of the gascasts before. I listened to this one and thought it was great so well done lads. For someone like me living overseas you guys are providing a really good insight into the goings-on at the club and a different view to the official line. Keep it up! Thanks mate.

I enjoyed most of this, but istm calling one of our players crap on, say, this forum is a bit dodgy but generally acceptable. After all, I'm happy to say, eg, now he's gone, Andy Bond really was crap when he was here. Not sure I want to listen to podcasts where it's done to current players. Istm you can be all shocky and edgy and present yourselves as outspoken, etc, and that can be entertaining, but istm that isn't what you're going for. But if you're gonna present yourselves as having some sort of reasonable, considered opinion (which istm you are doing largely successfully) you probably want to refrain from calling current players crap. It's inarticulate and undermines the rest of what you say, in my view. I mean, the rest of your analysis on why it wasn't working for him was actually pretty interesting, and reasonable. That was what I thought in the heat of the moment following his performance on Saturday. I perhaps should have said 'was' instead of 'is' - but when you record all in one go sometimes you may mess up a sentence or two! In general our podcasts aim to be an audio form of our opinions, just like others decide to time these etc on the forums; sure I agree overall that calling players crap is not on - this was our 10th episode and this will be the first time any of us has spoken of a player in such a way. But I think a lot of the compliments we receive from other listeners is the way we approach things honestly. If we weren't going to give honest opinions we would have 'gone official' with the club - but we want to be able to give our honest thoughts. As I say, 'Liam Lawrence is crap' may have been harsh. If I could change it I would have said 'was crap'... but to be honest if I'd recorded my thoughts at half time, i'd have been a damn sight harsher than that! It's hard to balance out what people are looking for, that's one of our biggest issues. Some say they want more swearing, less professionalism maybe, but some don't like it. We are trying to find the balance and hopefully 1 slip up in what must be about 3 hours of audio doesn't put you off too much!

Love that he admitted he lost his man that caused Parkes to have to make the block, very honest and none of us would have known if he didn't say it! A lot of things contribute on the football pitch, Parkes got a bit unlucky IMO although I do believe it was a pen.

I listened to 90 seconds, and need to get this off my chest now, and then enjoy the rest of the I'm-sure-excellent-webcast. Why do you guys say "SO" so much? Grrr. It's like Wayne Rooney and his 'erms' - 10 episodes time i'm sure it'll be gone....

I'm sorry but if these owners do prove the real deal, Higgs has pulled off a masterstroke. The UWE made us stand out compared to all other clubs at our level simple as. Without it they'd have no interest. Need a bigger font for "if" but other than that I agree True that. Better?
