I’m a yes but with the caveat that we’re getting some stupid things wrong atm. Really simple, avoidable stuff.
And I’m not on about relegation, I accept that comes with the territory
 
What a daft poll of course we're behind Sadler because he is our owner, yes we're behind him. That doesn't mean we can't question some decisions but he has the best interests of BFC at heart.
 
So to clarify, you want Saddler out, you've no idea who you want to replace him, and you haven't considered the possibility that we could end up with someone far worse.

Fair enough.
To confirm.

I have lost confidence in our owner.
How could I name names of a successor?
If you insist on a name -Belokon (Will not happen)
OK - we possibly could end up with someone worse ( It will not be the vermin family)
We are a fantastic club with so much potential in the right hands.

Cheers 🍻

The reality is that every decision in football is a gamble, in an alternative reality, if Fiorini had been fit for the first half of the season, and Bridcutt had managed a decent number of games, then maybe we'd all be hailing the appointment of Appleton as a genius move.

So I'm not sure what simple avoidable mistakes the club is making.

How do you know that?

Owen's certainly deluded enough to think he's the club's saviour, he could probably scratch together the funds to buy it as well, who's to say he couldn't make a comeback?

The none football stuff I mean. (Obviously the football decisions were poor but I accept that’s how it goes sometimes).
Todays ST announcement/pricing for a start. Very underwhelming, and the £20 extra for none digital nonsense
 
Yes, I'm sure he will use the same processes he uses in his business to learn the lessons. Getting a decent PR would help :)

Allowing the involvement of non-professional personnel (without permission first being sought from SS) in significant areas (pep talks, anyone?) behind the scenes with playing staff, possibly?
 
The 'unsures' I can go with. I have my concerns but, as I've posted elsewhere, we all make mistakes and we have to learn from them. As for the 'no's', the mind boggles!
 
Yes. Mistakes were made last season by the board. I suspect duff advice from Mansford played a part. Losing the likes of Fiorini, Gabriel, Ekpiteta and Anderson for months on end was hardly his fault either.

Everyone seems to have forgot the previous 2 seasons where we overachieved if anything. He took over when the club was on its arse. I suspect it still is and will take time to steady everything off field.

He’s Blackpool through and through. One bad season and the comparisons to Oyston are quite frankly pathetic. He’ll be hurting like all of us. He’s the man to take us forward, on and off the pitch
 
100%. Mistakes made admittedly, I’m hoping things will be rectified.

But in modern football theres more and more horror stories on untrustworthy owners, so at present I’m thankful he’s our owner.
 
Everyone has a right to express their opinion. Given the "no" votes will be a small minority it would be interesting to understand why they voted "no" without subjecting them to mindless abuse. I voted "yes" by the way.
 
It'll be interesting to see what the members of this message board feel towards our owner.

For me, he is absolutely the man to take us forward. Yes, he's made mistakes. He's learning on the job and he has been grossly let down by some of the people he entrusted to run the club for him.

I genuinely feel he has the best intentions for our football club and that he wants to leave a lasting legacy.

That is just one opinion though. It will be interesting to see what the votes and comments are.
One of our own and we are exceedingly fortunate that he is our custodian.
Been watching since 1967 and we have never been so well run . Looking at the youth and development squad it's obvious that we are progressing. Yes , for a variety of reasons last season was poor . However, all will be well.
Keep the faith. 🍊🍊🍊 UTMP!
 
I think he's made a few errors along the way but it's not as if someone produces a manual of 'how to run a football club'
I blame Mansford for last summer - he's been in the game long enough to know the score and the way he conducted business after Critchley left was negligible.
We don't need a new strong person at the club who knows the game and the fact they haven't yet arrived worries me more than not having a manager in place.
