Simon Sadler..

Yes, that's the basis of what I've said. I just can't think of any other set of circumstances that would have seen them off. they finally came up against someone with enough power and money and who wanted revenge. Fortunately for us lot, leaving us with a functioning football club that has more than a puncher's chance of growing to be a significant force once again.

Ultimately they’d have sold when Owen Kicked the Bucket or maybe even bowed to fan pressure eventually.

Football clubs are a sought after commodity yes they lose money as rule but the Billionaire's will always be ready to purchase as its a status symbol. Look at Wrexham great example of how quickly things can turn round and the owners football can attract , our home crowds have been half decent this season but we need something positive before nxt season in regards to season ticket sales.

I didn’t know you were a financial expert on the running of BFC…..🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 of the first order…go back to Dungdale where you belong.
By the way please define the dream owner,if you know him,her or them please let us know.

If you are such a good financial expert have a good look at the accounts for BFC ( if you actually know how to find them) and see how much money has had to be put into the club by SS to keep us afloat and still keep within the rules governing financial fair play.Very easy to spend other people’s money clown.

Maybe, but some of us could be dead by then, and who is to say the old goat would not have had another trick up his scruffy sleeve. Sadly, friends and family members of many did die during that dismal period. We can safely say that VB was not exactly the white knight but the timing of his involvement was not a minute too soon.

Well, I should imagine he has a better grasp of basic English than you. Your amazingly thought through deduction that 'clubs a shambles' means surprisingly very little.

Are these really Pool fans or Nobbers on the wind-up? Either way, their brain cells count would struggle to beat the humble garden slug.

I think that Simon Sadler has done a great job in terms of stabilising the Club and turning it into a professional outfit, following several years of decline under the Oyston tenure.👍

I do wonder though whether last season has wearied him and the reality of owning a football club is hitting home. I wouldn’t be surprised if he does look to exit at some point and in all honesty I wouldn’t blame him if he did.

Personally speaking, my dream owner would be someone who would come in and spend our way back to the Premier League. Just for once it would be fantastic to be that team who could outspend your rivals and attract the very best players etc… Of course, that’s probably not realistic, but we are talking ‘dreams’.

I'd agree but only if corporate sustainability targets were also met.

Might get some stick for this. We've all got different opinions and I'm not posting this for trouble here we go..
Who thinks Sadler is the dream owner. For me I'm gonna say no. We've not moved on from the oystons. Byers & Rhodes great signings but not our players. We've done everything on the cheap. Training ground & new east stand for me all a smokescreen. We signed 2 on deadline day. 1 maybe for the future & other one won't see this season due to injury..
Click to expand...
Our club is in the best state for decades. What do you expect?! On the cheap!! Laughable.
 
It makes me laugh with the “Sadler can do no wrong” brigade. He has done a lot of good things, no one is saying he hasn’t and it would be a poor do if he was the same as the Oystons, of course he isn’t. But just because some of us see flaws we are put down and shutters slammed down because he is not allowed to be criticised.

I don’t know about any of you but win at court was one of the best days of my life and I was truly excited, this carried on and Sadler came in and bought the club. He improved things, as any new owner would have had to do, and would have come into it with his eyes wide open.

I have to say after all that went before I was expecting the feel good factor to last a long time but it really hasn’t.

To me, he is an energy vampire and with the support in raptures should have carpe diem, but he hasn’t and it’s all so flat and average and blah. I think he will sell sooner than a lot of people think and we have to go again, but it seems like an opportunity missed to me. It’s so ** sterile around the place.

Spoken to him a few times and he’s a really nice guy. Also a very passionate Pool fan, just wish he had a better choice in managers 😉

it does not matter how nice Sadler is or how passionate you make him out to be as a Blackpool fan but he has made way to many mistakes since he has owned the club and has not listened to what the fans wish and want for the club then again ignorance is blind and we have been very poor as a club in all the transfer windows that we have recruited in and are just recruiting players that the majority of other clubs don’t want it would have all so been great for Sadler to have appointed some body who knows how to run a football club like Matt Williams some body with experience that knows how to run a football club as well as bring in a table of knowledge in running a football club it ant Rocket science is it.

Come on Kev, you are being pretty unfair with your assessment here.

Some things have gone well and other things have not gone so well, but that’s to be expected I’d have thought. You don’t always get player recruitment right and the same with managers and that applies to all Clubs…

IMO I think the club should employ a Town Cryer who should stand outside the ground everyday and tell everyone what is going on at the club so the fickle ones amongst us are all happy and content, and i bet a few would turn up as well.

I'm not saying that Kev, there are positive things it's just to me it lacks, as x3 said "A bit of oomph" It's like it's being done not by numbers but by algorithms and spreadsheets, that's what I mean by sterile.

He’s very easy to get along with no issues whatsoever .

I’m sure he has to crack the whip every now and again as people have to do when they own multi million pound turnover businesses that lose money and require huge amounts of personal handouts to keep them afloat.

Ultimately Belekon walked off into the sunset with a sackful of Blackpool FC money.

Owen took it out of the Club, then paid it to Belekon and we all waved him off into the sunset with our stash whilst calling him a hero…

You couldn’t make it up tbh.

No the oystons took the money,but didn’t give Belekon any,the judge ordered oyston to pay Belekon a substantial amount,that’s why the club was sold.

I think this is pretty much spot on.

I do think it’s more comfortable at this level with the finances, capacity required & pressure being in the League.

There’s definitely been a shift from early Sadler and the summer before we went up. He’s been through a few charlatans in the all singing infrastructure and his mate is no longer involved behind the scenes…

The January 2022 transfer window were we signed Charlie Kirk and Beesley to stabilise in the Championship was the start of the downward spiral on recruitment.

I know people hate "ITK" esque posts and you can choose to believe me or not here, but his energy definitely has been drained both by things on the pitch and off the pitch. He's admitted that. Whether that's just a temporary thing that he quickly gets over or not, I'm not sure.

He pays far too much attention to social media and avftt.

Well both Brett and Ben got pelters every single week so it's hardly a mystery as to why Mansford took a job elsewhere and Brett decided to go back to just being a fan.

I can’t begin to be arsed addressing this pure and utter bollocks save for 2 things. 1) he’s never paid himself £21million from the club 2.) he’s never sued a fan, so purely on that your argument is utter spunk.

So to clarify, he’s an amazing owner as long as he doesn’t take money out of the club and doesn’t sue his own fans?

I’m neither here nor there with Sadler but if that’s your pre-requisite for an amazing owner, you’re very easily pleased.

My take on it all is that ihe has the money I just think he’s unwilling to spend it now that he and his pal have fallen out and that his dream is over for him and he wants out and should a offer come in to sell the club he will accept the offer and walk away thinking that he has done as much as he can and for the club and is not willing to take the club any further.who knows only Simon him self can address the fans and let us know exactly where we are at with him as owner as well as the east stand and the TG seem to be taking a age to get off the ground it is over 4 years now and not a great deal is being done.i know there are many issues as well that are on going at present

I believe you as it all fits and makes sense. He did a statement based on a well known wind-up post off here after the 1st game of the season last season…

I thought then he needs to forget/ignore anything he reads on here.

Correct ere are the snowflakes and the fans that call a spade a spade and say it as they see it but Sadler certainly prefers the snowflakes that is for sure.i can remember back in the day when Sadler first took the club over that his pal told me we have the dream owner what has happened since then Simon.

Some peoples opinions just differ from other peoples and sadly those who are like yourself, clearly aren't prepared to listen to other peoples opinions that differ from your own without resorting to the absolute bollocks you have come up with in your message, You have to be able to see other peoples opinions, you don't have to agree with them but just saying it's bollocks is frankly, pathetic and there are a lot of you on this site. Thankfully there are plenty who are happy to discuss opinions as they should be even if you disagree.

I do listen to people’s opinions, I don’t listen to the made up bollocks people come out with.

I’ll give you an example, you think that Sadler has poor choice in managers, that is a valid opinion based on the managerial changes we’ve seen at the club.

Some people make things up and pass it off as opinion when it’s not based on anything substantial. For me, that’s not a valid opinion it’s just someone talking shite.

Examples being that the club is up for sale when he has said it isn’t, or that he’s taken money out of the club when the accounts clearly show investment.

Read back through the thread and tell me there aren’t some people talking complete bollocks.
 
Great shout nice to see hertfordseasider that you are not a snowflake and not a yes man unfortunately there are a few that post on here and they know who they are that spout off and call people for know reason and get abusive just because they don’t like to hear the truth.the bottom line is Sadler has made way to many mistakes and he needs to learn quickly other wise the great fan base that we have which is mainly backed up by the north that are more often than not very local that keep the atmosphere alive in the ground sooner or later start to drift away because as a example had Sadler spent money by recruiting a big mobile forward as well as a midfield General we would not have gone down.we need a owner of our great club who would hopfully be a lot more ambitious that Sadler has been up to now our main target this season was to get automatic promotion but it has not happened through poor management and lack of investing the right money in the right players like Bishop for example I rest my case in Blackpool football club I love until the day I die
