So a fashion expert , a mathematician and a bloke who works for his dad somehow constitutes a level of competence running a football club .
Not only that James Cryne and Neerav owe much of their wealth to their daddy's .
Little rich kids with time to have a full time hobby .
A masters degree in common sense at the university of life are the qualifications you need to run a football club .
The wacky women who resides in New York hasn't even the common sense to keep off Twitter or X and insists on trying to argue with fans and wonders why she gets abused .
However
Communication through the right channels and keeping fans up to date on important matters seems to escape her .
Meanwhile the new Sporting Director decides to break cover after 112 days in to the job thinking he's the dogs b@llax because they've filled a vacancy .

I am not sure what you are on about, my point is that these owners came in to make a fast buck , if you are suggesting that Patrick for example had the same idea then I would disagree , he was first and foremost a fan and he certainly did not take the club over with it being the prospect of a business opportunity , Jack Walker was of the same ilk , are you suggesting Mr Cryne & Mr Walker took over their clubs to earn a wage packet being as according to you nobody does owt without being paid ?
The only qualification owners need is to "pass" the "Fit and Proper Persons" Rules.
All they basically need to do that is prove their wealth is legally acquired and is likely to be sustainable for a reasonable period.
They are not required to have any specific ability in running a football club.
Shads - Patrick used to say something on the lines of ‘if you’ve got money and want to lose it then buy a football club’.
Not many buys a football club hoping to make money.
What you are suggesting about the present owners could be considered as offensive.
As all Barnsley supporters know - not a penny has been taken out - but £££millions has been put in.
And that’s after selling £8.5 million quids worth of players last summer.
Well almost anyone who doesn't get kicked out of the FA Cup despite winning the tie .
Anyone who doesn't think breaking EFL ownership rules is a good thing .
Anyone who doesn't sack their HC despite the fact he's had them in the top 6 all season after game 45 and then thinks they know better than he does then goes on to subsequently lose the play off semi final playing exactly the same way the HC they sacked did .
Anyone who doesn't think free agents from non league clubs will be a replacement for players who went to the PL and championship .
Anyone who doesn't create so many new shares in its business so that it actually dilutes the club's market value down to virtually nil .
Anyone who doesn't think it's a good idea to no longer own their own home and believes renting it is apparently better .
Any one who hasn't overseen their club losing £5m every season despite the fact it's consistently sold every decent player it's had since it arrived at the club .
It's an incredible rap sheet to say the least and that's not even half of it .
But other than that they are doing a very good job .
