She doesn't support us so I guess she won't ever give us any money either

I just started a thread about the lack of communication from either Board (BFC or BU) about what is happening but surprise surprise some stroppy full of himself moderator closed it in a very rude and abrupt manner. Oh well, if they can't tell the difference between debating communication failings and debating who the new manager is thats not my problem.
Anyway, this is what was said.
So is anyone at the club going to make any kind of official announcement about the timetable and process for getting in a new manager............or is it a case of with Keith Dickens having resigned and BeeH on holiday there is nobody left to make any decisions?
The silence from the Boards of both BFC and BU is deafening.

As I said in an earlier thread, the best recruitment is done in private.

Recruit in private by all means but no communication to the fans for 3 days after he has left. Thats just piss poor.

At the training ground, on Fridays.......

Cameron Diaz spent £38 filling up her 4x4 at the petrol station, near where I work.
As she left the kiosk, I asked her for the extra £2, for the Bees, she looked at me and said "Barnet ?"
I replied...."no, the other Bees......"
She sad..."Billericay ??"
I said, "No...Brentford FC !"
She did not give me the £2...but I can assure you she does support Brentford..she has a nodding Winnie in the parcel shelf section of her vehicle

I think it's more important for the club to prepare for the Wrexham game

Most clubs can manage communication with their fanbase AND preparation for games. They just have different people doing it ! Are BU also preparing for the game, if not whats their excuse for absolutely zero comment.
Mind you, we aren't most clubs are we. We are infinitely worse at just about every process than most clubs.
Is that because we are a fan owned club or maybe we are just crap at everything.

so who do you think should be sacked for this abhorrent crime..?
to be honest, I have been kept fully in touch with the current process, being a BU member and all that
Maybe if you weren't so firmly entrenched "outside the camp" you might have been told too ?

Don't you ever get tired of toeing the party line............?
Good to know that those in the incrowd get told these things by Chinese whispers though. I think you will find that my lack of information is less to do with me no longer being in BU and more to do with BU and BFC not communicating properly with its fans.(or members).
I await a barrage of replies from other BU members who are in the know through some back door method of information.
Your statement above is an absolutely appalling indictment of the methods of communication used by BU but that is hardly a surprise is it.

Very disappointing, but all down to Allen in my view. It was there for the taking, yet he seemingly didn't have the bottle to go for it and insisted on trying to hold 1-0 leads for 85 minutes all the time. And given the way he had chosen to spend the money given to him (Newman and Willock rather than a new contract for Tabb), do you think that giving him more money guaranteed anything other than a larger hole in the books? He knew the score, he knew there was no more money to give him.
And he still had a year on his contract when he walked out on us.

We'd kill to even have a 1-0 lead to try and hang on to since he has been gone.
Point about Allen's weakness is well made though, although in his defence the failure to make hardly any of the sale proceeds of Campbell available for the squad despite being told "he didn't HAVE to be sold" means that others are also culpable for us bottling it between Feb and April 2006.

I agree that the lack of leadership and communication is absolutely appalling, but its a BFC matter, not a BU one. I blame Dyke.

He only wanted £50k - as Willock was the man he wanted to replace DJ.We'd kill to even have a 1-0 lead to try and hang on to since he has been gone.

Well Smiffybee has just told us that his mates in BU are keeping him informed every step of the way. Shame they aren't providing the same service for the vast majority of their members.
Isn't Dyke a BU representative?

i reckon it's a forgone conclusion, the gpg have found out and have posted the news item so as to be able to give an "it woz the gpg wot won it" style announcement come the time.
that's what some guy told me at a petrol station this morning anyway....

You tell em JT i am a paid up member of bu and have a standing order but have heard nothing.[ except from a text from someone who has 4uck all to do with bu saying his mate has been offered the assist manager job.]

Ed, I know you, like me, went to all the games and witnessed the "car crash" ending to our season first hand. It was a bitter end to fun times and the sale of DJ (albeit perhapps unavoidable) left me with a sour taste to football full stop, as well as increasing the Brum Scum resentment. I felt MA had taken us as far as he good at the time and it was best for him at the time, and us, if he went. See what a new man can do...Jeez
...Yet whilst I respect the opinions of those who are against him - I'm not saying you are Ed - I so much believe he is the man for now.

I didnt say that
It's well known I have a poor record in terms of prediction and indeed factual comments.
However, I am good at those soduko things and can figure out puzzles...I know whuch posters on here know stuff and which don't
If you check my post history today, you may find that one gem which eludes you.
JT, the MD resigned/left on Tuesday. AS and the players had the next 2 days to prepare for the game, and left this morning. I am not sure the BFC board have formulated or agreed a process yet. Unless they are going with "last year's model"
I wouldnt have expected much news to come out until Sunday or Monday...when more applicants may appear out of the woodwork.

Well there is nothing on their website since 7th December.
Pray do tell how they have kept you in touch with the selection process.

Ad infinitum. In fact there were statements virtually every few days thereafter until someone was appointed.
Still, I'm sure our "don't tell em' anyfing" approach will appeal to some !

I didn't realise I now own Brentford FC. Must pop down there and appoint someone. I'll tell you first first though. 
Management Selection Process
Have it your own way. I'm sure people can read between the lines that some communication from the owners of the club on their website wouldn't also go amiss, especially in the complete absence of anything from the Football Club itself
Would that be down to the Communications person in BU or would you need to have a full Board meeting first and get permission before putting out anything useful?
Some admission that this isn't good enough might be a start.........

My worry is, i do not believe that there is ANYBODY in the club who has any decent contacts. We only got TB because a mate of a mate of a mate of somebody knew he wanted a job managing again. We were a bit of a joke then - we are a f***ing laughing stock now.
