Update from Dickens
I think what he wants to know is; when was the last time there was an update from Dickens or Dyke on the os?

Update from Dickens
So you want Dyke or Dickens, to prepare a statement, on the O/S, about when their last statement was....?
If they have no significant news, of behind the scenes activity, then why waste time on telling us that.
*Each home game Dickens writes a page in the programme.
*There is a Bees United site for the latest BU news
*I get a mail shot from the club each Friday, with 5 or 6 bullet points, summarising the weeks news....I am sure I'll get one today.
I'll update you later !
Update from Dickens
No, he hasn't asked Dicken or Dyke to prepare a statement or do anything, he has just asked if anyone knows when they last updated the os.
Do you know?

Don't you think it would be a good idea if this was also published on the website?

Update from Dickens
It can be published later that day or afterwards. The programme and OS should not be competing with one another as it released from a single body.

Do you think anyone buys the programme to read what Dickens has to say?

How about "I'm sorry, I have failed you!"
Or " I'm going outside, I might be a while."

No point calling Amy about being a Mascot because the Headline for that on the O/S this week (November 5th/6th ?) said " Mascot spaces still available for OCTOBER.

Update from Dickens
Dickens had no involvement in recruiting Leroy, which ultimately is the main reason we are where we are. OK Fitz was a mistake as was the 10 point plan to recruit, but who was clamouring for the job, apart from another untried Youth team manager?
As for Butcher, well I'm in the stable that thinks that Dickens had very little input into his appointment.

Who supposedly 'blew the interview panel away'.. Seems he's now getting his chance anyway, so will be interesting to see how he gets on..!

IMO, the 10 point plan wasn't a mistake. What was a mistake was then ignoring it and appointing Fitz..

Update from Dickens
Of course it was a mistake, simply because what happens when there are no applicants that tick no more than a couple of the boxes. Fitz was employed simply because no one of merit wanted the job.
If we didn't employ Fitz or Patterson, who would have we have employed?
Employing a football manager is different to employing someone to head up your accounts dept at Glaxo. We missed our best chance imho following MA departure. That is when we asked around some old management experts who they would recommend, rather than ask one of those old heads, whether they wanted the job?

That's interesting (that the club sends you a weekly mailshot, not necessarily the content
)How do you qualify/register for proactive communication from the club?

Update from Dickens
Maybe it would be a better idea if the Club put the news from the mailshot on the OS. And if they do, what is the point of the mail shot?
Does anyone proof read the written communications, by the way?

Update from Dickens
The "mailshot" is an email that basically is a snapshot of the official site. So there's nothing in it that isn't on the official site. I think the point of it is that it arrives in your inbox, rather than requiring you to visit the website proactively.

I have a wicked sense of humour but would suggest you leave Charlie Brodie alone....he was an icon and a class guy the likes of which are not around now and already there is two looking to ram your words back down your vocal chords.I am really disappointed you dont seem to have got my Pedegree Chum gag

Behave, no threats to Smiffy allowed.
I know,its an automatic ejection,I do know my days are numbered at GP but at least I feel the courage to slay the corruption at the top for all its worth. Just dont understand what the knee benders are getting to keep quiet. Thought the quip about Charlie in very bad taste

Look at the dictionary,the clubs body is corrupt,dying,no longer beautiful,must be a degree of if the cap fits wear it methinks........but where does the money come from to pay all those in the Ivory Towers,
Update from Dickens
Following moribee's allegations, the owners, administrators, moderators and sponsors of the Griffin Park Grapevine (at https://griffinpark.org ) wish to make it clear that they totally disassociate themselves from Moribee's comments above re corruption at BFC.

Back that statement up with facts or else just shut up...allegations like that do you no favours whatsoever..corruption is a serious allegation..think you need to leave the ciggies alone...they are scrambling your brain....
