| It's not rumour. He's signed up for two years. I'm pro agar so I'm happy, I know lots on here won't be but the blokes worked his socks off and will continue to do so. Noes the time to get the feel good factor back and lets start getting some support back in the club, myself included

| So what did AG bring.
He came in and saved us. We may not be here without him. He put money in (loan from his business I believe). He brought in a great enthusiasm and energy.
He steered us through the franchise process (but who can remember the embarrassment of the crusaders game the week after inc club management on pitch and t shirts in the club shop).
He made ground improvements inc the North Stand which is the best thing to happen at BV for god knows how long.
He created a buzz especially on Social Media (but some of his tweets pics I found unprofessional for someone in his position).
He created a club with a culture of season ticket/membership which before we didn't really have. This years packages are the best yet.
We have created a team (which on paper is our best for a long time).
We have a lottery (work in progress) which will go some way to fund our youth system.
We are closer to a new stadium than ever before.
So many positives but negatives too including financial problems rearing their head again. Same old some may say. But he saved us and for that we should be grateful.

Not sure al but I can guarantee he has signed. Would imagine it will be tagged on end of next years contract to be honest

| Andrew Glover should have stayed but got rid of James Elston & Davide Longo, They have more day to day impact on how the club is run. If things carry on like this I can see us in the championship come 2015.....
Lets hope we can have a strong finish in our last games

He has stayed - he's still the owner and will be leading on the development of NM and the new College, both of which are vital to our long term future.
I imagine that once Michael Carter has got his ducks in a row, there'll be further changes to roles and responsibilities, in line with what he wants to achieve; there wouldn't be much sense in playing musical chairs at the top table, then everything else carrying on just as it was.

Sometimes I don't know whether to take your seriously..
Hopefully with the changes it means people such as Elston are removed but who knows...

| At the risk of dredging up every bitter and twisted poster that we have on here.....what is the big deal with Elston (and Longo for that matter)
I don't know him but I've met him. Seems ok, has the club at heart.
If he is to be judged on the clubs performance as a whole....there are positives and negatives
We have CCJs, but equally they have been handled
He signed some players on allegedly big contracts that some don't like but we needed something fast and he got us a team
Some don't like the way the season has gone, that certainly isn't him
Some don't like Agar, and think it is Elston's fault. As far as I could see they went through an interview process and it wasn't just his decision. They said at the time that he was the best bet for the long term rather than a quick fix. I can see that.
He does a lot of work with the sponsors. I'm not one but have been in the boxes a lot. He works hard and is 100% better at public speaking than any of the other board members that tried it in previous regimes (Rodders excepted)
The communication from the club is a 10 fold improvement since he has been in charge. It isn't always perfect but often good and we have some which we have never had before. Even just the Twitter feed to keep you up to date on match day alone is a vast improvement.
We are moving forward with NM and those that were there would have seen how involved Elston was at the public hearings, both speaking but also backing the other people that were there.
And above all that, he got Glover involved, which was worth it's weight in gold
So it's not that I'm his biggest fan, I just don't see quite why there is so much animosity towards him.
has he done something I haven't seen?
