What should we make of the deafening silence from Home Park?

Just checked the official site, there are no press releases from Brent or indeed no recent interviews in the local media either. So is the banker in avoidant or denial mode or he just can't be bothered, or is it there is simply nothing more he can say in the circumstances of our league predicament.

aka's, argyle's most important fan probably told speccy we won! well he lies about every fvcking thing else!

JB apologised to 250 people at a recent Fansfest. What more do you want?

Pity he didn't nip around the corner and make the same apology to the regulars in the Far Post club. Or better still, gone on the pitch and made his apology to ALL Argyle fans. The 96% of fans who weren't at the Fansfest!

I imagine Brent knew that his grovelling apology and quivering lip would be accepted by the fanfest masses rather than being roundly booed and jeered infront of 5000 pissed off janners.

I've commented on it before. It said so much that he choose to do it that way. It was against the back drop of the Trust, particularly, and the PASB asking question that were somehow too hard or too sensitive for Brent to answer openly. He choose his audience wisely and astutely with much fore thought.

The President asserts Brent is the most available, approachable and open owner ever. But if you dissect what James actually says it isn't much.

You see that's the problem,
The Superfans that make up the 2 per cent of the fanbase that go in the Nerd Fests, the maybe 5-7 per cent who use Pasoti , with the aid of their overlords have the whiphand over the 90 per cent that neither go to the fan-fests, nor use pasoti.
They even get their own evil mural superimposed on the stadium, both the wicked despicable evil moneylender, and the odious logo of Crapotti.
The Superfan mentality is more prevalent then ever

the fans fest crowd though are the ones who have 'control' or those that are 'on message'.
brents fine words at this time translate into braintree, alfreton & dartford away in 2013-2014.

Rick oshay and bananaman are going to incorporate Brents next statement apologising for keeping Fletcher far too long and not making sure the crap of the last couple of years got cleared out of the club and investment in the team made a priority, into a special janner song they will sing at the next fanfest.

It saves Brent the hassle of having to mingle with the plebs and risk getting his shoes dirty and everyone can join in when they sing, "who are the thickest fans of all" with "Janners, Janners"

It's a win/win for Jimmy boy.

Could be they just don't give a shit

Janners.....Janners.....

Just to clarify.

My post isn't a criticism of the GT's or the fansfest, just the fact JB chose to apologise to fans through this small proportion of the fan base.
