So was the original reporting an oversight and he was actually given a 3 year deal? Or has this been extended? If so, when? And why? |  | | |

Good to have confirmation but an explanation of when and why might have been a worthwhile addition. |  |

Unfortunately details like that and communication on this topic hasn’t been up to the high standards they aspire to within that article.
That’ll be accepted and apologies all round. | |

An absolute disgrace. It's not good enough to simply say communication hasn't been to the standard that we aspire to. We employ a full time media team. The standards were already pretty low. |  | | |

The club is taking piss out out of us !!!
Boycott season tickets
Boycott buying shirts
Boycott the lottery.
Avoid paying a tenner on Saturday or any other game
Avoid putting a penny into the club until this shower of shit are removed.

You'd at least hope that all the Board members had been communicated with wouldn't you. GR is asleep at the wheel if he was | | | |

Everyone in the country is working hard, apart from those who have lost their jobs and livelihood through this pandemic. I'm sick of it being mentioned as though it makes them something special. | | | |

Absolutely spot on. | | | |

So in essence a Burnley/Dyche type of deal the first time they were promoted. By working with a non-crippling player budget that hoped rather than targeted staying in the premier league, they allowed for a relegation and the first crack at getting them back up again, which he did. Let's see how BBM does. Now its announced I'm willing to give him a fresh start in league 2 for the first few months
..................All assuming he doesn't provide a miracle this season |  | | |

This isn’t just an oversight, it’s unprofessional and not good enough. Somebody, somewhere isn’t doing their job properly and it needs sorting. |  | | |

I asked that last night re his initial contract. No and it's in bold in the article on the official site. [Post edited 11 Mar 2021 14:02]

I made it just past the hour mark. Wonder how many of the nearly 1k were still there at the end. Should give the club an idea what SC sales might be next year |  |

We've been left to have big conversations about the future of our club without "the context". We've been told how important "the context" is.
Comments about improved communication are pretty hollow at this point. They've been saying the same thing for years. This is a new level though. There have been fans wondering about the future of their club because the managers contract was apparently expiring. Could we afford to sack him? Would we let the contract expire? etc. Now it turns out that there was never really a risk of either of those. They've said they read the messageboard, they know we didn't know. We were left in the dark to have impassioned conversations on a completely moot point.
I'd love to know when it was agreed. Not just to know how long we have been kept in the dark, but to check if we were performing in a way that deserved an extension at the time it was given. | |

It also explains why BBM explained he was only interested in the process and not the result. He's bombproof until 22. | |

It's a sad indictment of how little regard the members of the board that were 'in the know' actually have for us supporters and a justification,,if more was needed, for all who criticise the lack of communication from the club. |  | | |

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a club statement like this before. It simultaneously apologies for the poor communication regarding BBM’s contract extension whilst at the same time continuing the poor communication by not explaining when it was extended. |  | | |

If things are allowed to continue to the end of his contract he will leave us zt the bottom of league two. | |

That’s why he can carry on not changing the way we play,not caring about the results and where we are in the league, his wages are safe for the next 16 months
Not saying I would be bothered but if he gets the chance to ply his trade somewhere else he would jump ship no worries team Rochdale my ar$e! |  |

Totally guess work of course I reckon it was till 2021 but if we stayed up in the season Hill got sacked it was gonna be extended to 2022 which is what happened. | |

So this explains why we can't afford to sack him......we all thought he only had a few weeks to go and get paid off.
We been p*ssed on,again. | | | |

It was staggeringly bad last night regarding the secret contract extension given to BBM without the knowledge of the other Directors.
Why on Earth was the question not given to DB to answer? He would have been the person who gave the extension surely.?
Why was it done without the knowledge of other Directors? The look on faces was cringeworthy.
Why was it done without the knowledge of supporters
When was it done? If it expires next May, could it have been done a few months ago?
Is there anything else that DB has done without telling anyone? Any golden handshakes ? Pay offs to ex staff members?...working hard awards? pay rises etc?
Bottomley... you are on very thin ice with this one. Who can hold him to account? Other Directors/The Trust/ Can the fans join together to force an EGM? | | | |

This ‘oversight’ would be bad enough at National League North level, never mind the ‘elite level’ RAFC (remember to pronounce each letter) play at. [Post edited 11 Mar 2021 14:47]

Total bollocks, of course.
It's clearly a contract extension that wasn't communicated. Certainly not to the media team or fans, but possibly not the full board*
There isn't an excuse to be made here, James. If there was they'd have used it in the confirmation article.
* I'm not convinced on this. I'm not taking a gormless last minute stand-in Rawlingson as proof the board weren't aware or sanctioned it. |  | | |
