What is it and what’s it’s purpose?

[Shadrack the Red]

It's a PR exercise Shads where any questions are filtered beforehand and asked by a compere, recently the smiling chap from Reds All Over.
Nodding heads, murmurs of approval , smiles and applause all around.
A chance to brown nose with the owners (EFL permitting).

It is usually BBS Posters only who are asked by Gally and Loko ( if they got tickets) to submit questions to be filtered. My questions would be--

Why have the club dispensed with the freelance services of photographer Keith Turner ("Stretch") ?

Did JAQ undergo any form of due diligence/ fit and proper person test before becoming a Barnsley FC Director ?

[Jules88]

I’d be very interested in going if there was a open, visible drawing out of all applications for the privilege of receiving tickets to attend, so that the forum would be a balanced cross section of fan views, not just the same faces, same views.
In fact… what would be a better idea would be for them to invite 200 season ticket holders who have NEVER attended a fans forum before.

My question?
Why have you allowed the club you own lose the very thing it was most famous for…. Its reputation?

I might be wrong but as I have read it anyone can apply to the club if they wanted to attend, my own thoughts that if i felt so strongly about things then at least apply for a ticket, if anyone does want go and does not apply then they cannot grumble , personally this does not float my boat at all but if something was really getting under my skin then I would at least try to be there .

Be good if you could attend Jules.
As with any poster on here - it would also be good to meet up at the event.

Questions from the floor are going to be mightily interesting - especially with the EFL issue and yet another successful head coach leaving.
BUT - the club must be extremely confident they can bat things away - as they wouldn’t have called the meeting.
