I was speaking generally, rather than about you specifically.


Actually, thinking about it, Lucketti is an ex-Dale player so this thread is about one of our own.

When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf?

Much like Celtic have suffered financially and remained stagnant in a footballing sense from not having regular derbies against Rangers, Dale don't benefit from Bury struggling financially/going out of business. Far from it.

Derbies are the matches that bring the crowds in. Bury dropping down the divisions due to financial trouble would hurt us too.


Am not sure Bury dropping down will affect us in the slightest, seeing as we will be dropping right along with them...

Poll: Hill in or out? 2nd referendum.....

In the case of Bury and Rochdale, I'm not sure I agree with this notion.

Celtic and Rangers are two massive clubs, the only two in Scotland. Celtic would make a lot more in gate receipts playing against Rangers than against St Johnstone.

However Bury and Rochdale are two small clubs whose Derby figures attract usually only 5/6,000 fans in total. I'd argue staying in League One with teams such as Bradford, Blackburn, Bolton and Sheff U etc who will bring 3,750 away fans would be more beneficial for both clubs financially.

Going by Stewart Day's logic getting into the Championship would be even better... every team in that league including the likes of Millwall, Burton and Reading would bring 6,000 away fans to every match.... according to him anyway.

Knowing Bury they probably had Carillion as the contractor on the build and paid them up front.

I'm aware of the messageboard threads and what happened to individuals mentioned within them. That was in the past, we are talking about what they've done since/are doing now to represent supporters' concerns, and then subsequently inform ALL fans of what occurs when they liaise with the club by ensuring there is a consistency to their output in the public domain.

Edit: thanks for the offer to dig out the info or to email. But that's exactly the issue, there should be a clear process so that information is being made available to all Bury supporters via their website. This is something we successfully manage through our Trust at Dale who are fully aware that they are there to represent all fans, ask questions, then made public the answers.

In response to the edit:

You have to understand the questions being asked by the Dale trust towards Dunphy (?) are not on the same level as the ones being asked towards Stewart Day. Hence, communication between club and supporters trust is more easily maintained.

I'd have though this would be quite an obvious factor and I'm fairly sure I've gone over this point before.

Questions put to Day essentially calling him a crook, questions about CCJ's, loans against club assets, the clubs debt levels etc are much less likely to be answered than say questions about why fans can't drink in the Ratcliffe Arms at half time, or why the price of pies has gone up by 15p

Look, I've seen the types of questions the Dale Trust forward to the Rochdale board, and I've also seen the questions that Forever Bury put forward to Stewart Day. They simply are not comparable.

You're quite right. There are plenty of questions that could be asked of the Dale board that would never get a full and frank response. That's the way of things.

There's no chance anyone will get any full answers to the Bury debacle, unless the person being asked is in a witness box being cross-examined.

I agree, but where are the examples of Forever Bury's questions on behalf of supporters with responses/no comments? They may be out there and that's why it was asked.

Yes, there have been personal accounts of forums etc on a messageboard but as a voice of supporters, where is the official stance of Forever Bury on the situation?

And again, it may well be there, that's why there was a request for a link. Tedious "I spoke to Day/Thomas/the cat and they said this, this and this" gets nowhere. Make it official. If that means there's no further contact, fine. Get that out there and at least everyone knows where they stand. At present the amount of uncertainty after FIVE years indicates previous methods have not worked at all.

Edit: as BURYFC1885 says, they've seen examples of questions asked. Where are they then? Have ALL Bury fans seen them, and the subsequent responses/non responses? If not, that's my point. eg. Is there a simple "where are we up to with the new stadium?" answer out there recently?

It's been previously explained to you that due to Forever Bury not giving into Day's ludicrous requests, they no longer have a seat on the board. Therefore, I think it is fair to say communications have broken down between Forever Bury and the club. This results in limited answers from the club regarding pressing issues.

Rochdale's supporters trust simply isn't comparable as there is no ill between club and trust and the nature of the questions posoed by Rochdale's supporters trust are not as severe. Plus they aren't being asked to cough up £50k for the privilege.

I am taking on board what you say and can only reiterate the main point: where, in the public domain/on their website, is this information you state around “limited answers” and about “communications have broken down” and their current stance on the situation as representatives of the supporters?

I get your point completely, mine is where is the substance to illustrate how things are? Please point us to where that is on their website, genuinely may have missed it.

A bury supporting mate of mine said the tickets were a fiver each and that gave them a "free" raffle ticket - the first prize was a VIP day with Stewart Day. The second prize was 2VIP days with Stewart Day!

Or is that another "event" R11?
