    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    Neither did previous generations have to contend with suicide bombers on the London Underground, shoplifters ( which isn't a victimless crime as some might suggest ), muggings, knife related gang crime, the increasing use of firearms in robberies, vehicle crime, internet grooming of children...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    I'm not suggesting crime is reduced, but the ability to gather evidence and prosecute criminals successfully is massively improved when it's possible to present irrefutable evidence in Court, in the form of CCTV footage. That also allows Police Officers to spend MORE time on the street, and not...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    Really, you think that the club are doing this specifically to target you personally and not because it's been proven to assist crowd control in general. CCTV is present in every shop, bus, train, town centre and many other public spaces to reduce criminality, be that against property or people...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    Excuse my ignorance but what announcement? Ah, I've found it now, this safe standing issue everyone seems to be getting there knickers in twist about. Storm in a teacup. Its gives fans cheaper tickets and clubs bigger profits. No it doesn't, the club can charge exactly the same price if they...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    I think that the club have to respond to the world as it is today, NOT as it was 1, 2 5, 10, 20 or even ( insert number here ) years ago. The world we currently live in, is one where television revenue DOMINATES the income stream that clubs have, and provides a club with a potentially unlimited...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    Well, if the world isn't moving on, time certainly isn't standing still. The costs associated with running a football club at this level mean that the club cannot be run on ticket reciepts and loans from chairmen and nothing else ( we are NOT Barcelona ), it's never going to progress either in...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    Hmmmmm........ Well if that's how you feel, then maybe you just have to accept that the world has moved on, and you have a choice to make. The Goldstone Ground is long, long gone I'm afraid, and it isn't coming back anytime soon. However, the opportunity to play in the top tier of the English...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    I don't agree. It isn't really OUR football club when you look at the nitty gritty of the way the professional game is organised. BHAFC is a Ltd Company, and like any Ltd Company it has a Chairman, a Board of Directors, and a number of Shareholders. This has been the case since the club was...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    I think my point is perfectly fair and valid, we fought tooth and nail to stop the Albion from becoming 'THE' local non-league team, and anyone who still hasn't realised that fact has entirely missed the boat..........

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    You are forgetting the people collecting money for charity, and in some instances, they are collecting for very worthy causes which I am happy to support. I've never felt pressurised to buy a programme or lottery ticket that I didn't want to. At the end of the day no-one is being forced to hand...

    How connected do you feel to the club's values?

    As someone who started supporting during the Bamber era, the only way the club will progress is to become a lean, mean, money making machine. If you don't like that, then following a professional football club probably isn't quite your cup of tea, perhaps you should go and check out a local...
