The B-Ark / Gloucester

« on: January 07, 2023, 10:08:28 PM »

How bloody frustrating, we score a lovely goal and revert to looking as though thats enough and we don't give a toss any more. Sorry to say that the Lincoln lad in goal is not good enough but it does appear that he cannot be dropped, is this part of the loan agreement? if so send him back. I have to say that I am finding it dificult to give my full backing to the manager as a lot of those he is bringing in are not good enough, although to be fair we can only guess what restraints he is working under. Things are looking extremely dodgy at the moment but I will be at Kettering next week and encourage everyone to try to get there and get behind the team, This is our BUFC and we must do whatever we can to make sure we do not face relegation.  UTP

The B-Ark / How Poor Can Day Get.

« on: January 01, 2023, 07:44:31 PM »

How poor can a day get? We are definately in a terible position and in great danger of relegation if something doesn't happen and quickly, I accept that I appear to be stating the obvious yet again but some in that squad are not worthy of the shirt. The only glimmer of hope was the new lad up front Mitford who scored a very good goal albeit to late to make a diference, looks as though he could be a crowd pleaser or could be with a decent team around him.
Was bitterly disappointed with the so called fans who went for the beer (which they couldn't handle) and a fight, and getting arrested and locked up. Very poor form when the club had restored its good name.

The B-Ark / Spalding humiliation

« on: December 20, 2022, 10:00:49 PM »

This almost feels like the final nail in the coffin. Well done Spalding but what a shower of tripe United have become. Am now dreading a total humiliation on Boxing Day. It now looks as though relegation is really on the cards. As we get through managers at the same rate as players will we ever find a replacement for Craig? The fans have shown so much support for the club they deserve much better than the garbage being dished out but it surely can't last much longer. The hospitality may be sold out for Boxing Day but much more of this dross and there will be a struggle to sell burgers. One way or another the chairman must take the bull by the horns or it will become a total catastrophe.  UTP

The B-Ark / Fylde

« on: November 22, 2022, 09:44:17 PM »

Took me until the fortieth minute to get the Radio commentary and wished I hadn't bothered. This was frankly embarrassing and totally unacceptable. Where we go from here I dread to think. Finding it quite ammusing that Boxing days game is all ticket, can only assume it's the only way to try to get a crowd in as I can't imagine non season ticket holders arriving in droves on the day. Need to get things sorted quickly or it will be a battle for survival.  UTP

The B-Ark / Brackley

« on: October 25, 2022, 09:52:39 PM »

I didn't go tonight for the simple reason I refuse to waste £50 watching a team who are absolutly useless. Listened to commentary and even Craig was totally peed off and "Lost for words". There must have been a reason to replace a centre forward with a full back when we are one nil down against ten men perhaps the manager will explain later. Total respect for the fans who travelled tonight you deserved much better.  UTP

The B-Ark / Farsley

Couldn't be there tonight but what a great result 4 from 4 for the new management team which we could only of dreamed of. Mick Fixter will be looking down with that big lovely smile.  UTP

The B-Ark / Scarborough

« on: August 28, 2022, 10:07:52 AM »

It was always going to be a tricky fixture regardles of where we are at the moment so with that in mind I feel there were a few more possitives yesterday. Well the result for example, if we wre winning our home games I am sure that would have been a very acceptable result away from home. There was much more intensity in our play closing down well and in all honesty restricting Scarborough to very few chances if any ( the free kick from which they scored was unstoppable) certainly we created far more than they did. Sendings off were inevitable elbows and head butting sheer stupidity.
Many know my views on some of our players so I will not mention names but will say this, Yesterday I thought they all did their best and grafted well and were the better team, please don't take this as a view that we are any way near where we should be but all I ever ask is that those on the pitch give it 100% and they did yesterday. As I say a long way to go and still some just not good enough but credit for effort yesterday.  UTP

The B-Ark / Glen Chapman R I P

« on: January 04, 2021, 05:47:39 PM »

My thoughts and prayers are with Glens wife Pauline and family at this the saddest of times. As everyone knows Glen was Chairman of BUSA and it was my pleasure and privilage to recently serve with him on the committee. A lovely man who's legacy will live on at BUFC and a sad loss to all who knew him. God Bless and Rest In Peace Glen.

The B-Ark / Farsley

That was without doubt the best performance of the season so far. We know we have a team who can play lovely passing football but we now know we have a team who can mix it when needed. Every player did the business today and what a star and grafter Jordan Burrows is. I know I will receive a few comments but I honestly believe we have a squad that can win this league.  UTP

The B-Ark / Keep everyone on board.

« on: November 16, 2020, 04:15:18 PM »

I am slightly disappointed with the lack of interesting information on the BUFC Official site. Okay it is awful that we are suffering across the board with this horrible pandemic particularly the lack of games but surely there is a need to keep all supporters on board and interested, every time I go to the site there is little other than "Match Off" and the only thing to see is the live cam on the ground. Surely we could stretch to photo's of the facilities inside the stand etc, Perhaps some interviews with the players many of who we have only seen on camera would enable us to get to know them better. There must be more to keep everyone engaged with the club as losing interest could mean losing fans. Hate to be critical but only saying this because I love and miss my club.  UTP

The B-Ark / New Stadium

« on: October 16, 2020, 01:04:55 PM »

Just been looking at the live web cam at the new stadium and have to say that during these worrying times it is really encouraging to see the terracing going in on the far side of the ground. As it looks that the ground is almost ready to host games would it be possible for the youth team to play some games there thus allowing fans in and using these games to carry out the the various testing requirements. I know it may sound desperate and there may be valid reasons why this can't happen what do you think?  UTP

The B-Ark / Season Tickets

« on: October 07, 2020, 06:50:17 PM »

Have received an email from David Newton as others will have done regarding Season Tickets. There are three options for those who have already purchased, Option one is to have a season ticket including streaming of games as from this Saturday versus Guisely with no refund. Option two similar for this and option three a full refund. I hope everyone who is in a position to can as I have done and opt for option one. Clearly the club desperately needs all supporters to help in any way they can to make the club viable this season. I think with the squad that has been put together, the new stadium, and the great result last night they deserve all the help and support we can give be it 50p or £5000 every penny counts.  UTP

The B-Ark / Kettering game

« on: December 28, 2019, 06:14:01 PM »

Not quite a classy game, no really outstanding displays, apalling referee but for me the best win of the season so far. After the shift they put in at that shithole Kings Lynn on a cabbage patch and the fact Kettering had a long rest coming into this game I thought the lads were outstanding. Lovely to see some 1500 home fans present and we need to keep building on this.  UTP.
