So...the truth has come out....as it was always going to...
It's a funny situation this...i'm as excited as anyone for the coming season...and very grateful that bob has come in and put his money where his mouth is...,
i found bob's "candid" approach to the club refreshing...i found his ability to wind others' fans up hilarious. i believed him with the stadium and the plans for the future and believe he's already got success with the increased crowds and the "buzz" around the club...
but if you court publicity - you often get it. apparently there's no such thing as bad publicity... but you and the other directors and those others "in" on the game should have a good think about this....
i'll continue to support park ave coz they're the club that chose me...
but i'll never believe a fucking word from any of you - and neither will a lot of fans. we're not all miserable gets that like to have a pop on an internet messageboard - some of us have brains and actually enjoy watching the avenue.
alienating the rest of the unibond was quite funny...wilfully alienating your own supporters is just plain daft....
i knew about this "con"....this "scam" quite a while ago and hoped to god it wouldn't come out. but that's what it is...and you've made a lot of people look like idiots - and folk don't like that.
y'see directors of park ave - now there's a good few of us that simply don't trust you - I always thought that you were just an eccentric millionaire that may or may not get tired of MY club - now i just wonder what the fuck you're up to and what exactly you'll do to MY club.
oh dear...
oh - and by the way...no - i'm not hiding behind a username - Gary Scott - and I can easily be found if one of your "security" wants to take me out.
if they do - I quite like getting really pissed and then ending up in a curry shop, thanks.
Full Version: Sometimes it comes back to bite you on the ass...
and now we see one of bob's less educated "mates" spamming this board to try and cover up the dissatisfaction....
embarrassing in the extreme....
embarrassing in the extreme....

That's the bottom line gaz.
No matter how anyone thinks about this, and i'm sorry but i don't give a monkies about it, your all welcome to your opinions but i wouldn't take me bat and ball home over something like this.
We're letting others who have much to gain from our failure wind us up on this.
Doesn't even register on the richter scale compared to seeing avenue turn up at Radcliffe a couple of seasons ago for a relegation decider with a pub team out, due to winning tinpot cup, don't remember many going mad about that at the time.
Hopefully the siege mentallity will now be in place with the people who run the club and we will smash all oppostion as we did last season.
Roll on the new season and keep supporting the boys Gaz.

its not "others" Jez that started the whole thing off, it was our OWN board and we deserve everything we get in the way of stick from other fans.
I personally won't be trusting a single word that comes from Bob Blackburn or his apprentice.
What's next? Phoenix Park just a "giggle" - who knows.

Did you trust him last season when he said he'd win the league for us.
It's a non argument for me anyway, a few of you don't apprieciate the gag, fair enough, your opinion, as i say i don't give a monkies, it does not matter to me.
More concerned with if we've got the right players for next season.

at what price?
you happy selling your soul?
It gives me no pleasure to say that you are not the first, and certainly not the last club to be taken over by some money grabbing shark, that! in a nutshell is what Bob Blackburn is,and you lot can't see the wood for the trees that he has put in front of you.
This type of corrupt Bastard is only in it for the money..... and that usually means selling your existing ground for housing with a promise of a new multi million ground elsewhere........ with new housing around it,,,,,, he is a house builder for christs sake and thats what they do.
Get real!, with your small crowds do you really think for one minute you are going to get a 20k stadium and the success that goes with it.
Well!! only the thoughtful will see beyond his obvious money making ways.

Ok John as seen as you are one of the few who talk sence on here, i am very sorry onbehalf of myself, kev and JD for letting this what started out as a prank about RP and the Hatrick in Spain, as stated earlier the games were played against teams stated albeit lower standard than we were led to believe, as for the hand full of supporters who have taken this episode into orbit, that is their decision and i can do no more with that, as for the others then if you trust and believe in me and other Board members then actions speak louder than words.... and further more can a line now be drawn under this matter and turning our attention to winning the league....
I am not in this for the money nor ever have been nor never will be, i personally donated circa £10k a month to fund BPA with donations from kev and JD aswell and will be giving BPA even more this season to fund another promotion fight and again the year after... one thing i will guarantee is that i will bring success to this club and i will get them back into football league status as previously mentioned despite all the mocking and piss-taking this fuels my determination even more and anyone who knows me, knows i play hardball and will fight tooth and nail to achieve what i say, i will do... as for the ones who will never believe a word both me and the board say, then again that is your human right but i will prove you wrong aswell...
RE: the Phoenix Park Site, this was a commercial move i took with the purchase to ensure BPA have no one to answer to and our future success is in our own hands and not hampered by red tape, we looked at the purchase of Horsfall but this would be a long slog, we looked at going back to Little Horton, this again would have been too expensive, we looked at the Odsal Sporting Village and that was nor ever will be a non starter as latest press have proved.
So i went out and found this was the perfect site... after 2 meeting with LCC and Metro Rail for sighting a new station on there things turned out better than expected... and again despite all the pisstakers, this makes me even more determined and another thing i will guarantee BPA WILL BE PLAYING ON THERE INSIDE THE NEXT TWO YEAR....
On a final note, i am personally sorry for any upset caused...
Yours Bob
thank you Bob,apology accepted.
I will cut.paste it onto other relevent threads when I find time

Yours Bob
dont worrie bob what you have done for avenue is a dream. i am 21 years old and been suporting avenue since i was in a pram,
i even ball boy'ed for years and years,
i never thought avenue would make it into the leugue and i never thought avenue would have a ground of the own, but with you and the rest of the BOD it is possible.
I have to say as an avenue fan of 19 years and from my 1st match at only 2 months old I cannot remember the club being in such a strong position, yes we were founding members of the conference north but we were never ready for it hense we suffered 2 back to back relegations.
Now we have great financial stability all be it due to Bob putting in £10k of his own hard earned money, people will always have doubts about Bob and his aims, if some one had come in and said to me Avenue would be back in the league in 10 years before Bob came in I'd never of believed it, now he's here he has a plan and a great one at that I have no doubt we'll be there the time scale I'm not fully sure on as I think it may take 1 or two years longer but so far Bob has been right about what he's said so hopefully he's right about this.
No Avenue fan can deny that we are in a much better position now than we ever have been since we re-formed and things are only looking brighter. I have to urge all Avenue fans to put aside what petty squarels they have with a Board member or a fellow fan and to turn up week in week out and watch as the club we all love gets promoted yet again and gets 1 step closer to the league!

Avenue director Kevin Hainsworth admits that, contrary to reports

score a hat-trick against FC Soto Grande on the club's pre-season
tour of Spain. Hainsworth also admitted that, contrary to reports

well done Bob. It's been an embarrassing few days as an Avenue fan, so please lets not have a repeat performance.
Wish you and the team all the best for the coming season.
Big Man - I know how difficult it would have been to openly apologise for this fiasco. I for one am happy to draw a line under the whole thing.

Errrrrrr......
Conference North Briggsy, that was a better position than we are at now.
Yes the team is looking good on paper and hopefully we can go on to win this league. The only down side is that it would have been nice to have Bob's financial input a few years ago when we needed it.
Anyway, onwards and upwards so they say (whoever "they" are?).
If Bob says we'll win the league then who are we to doubt that?
Rob.
