Homecoming Day 07:26 - Mar 9 with 1224 views | TwelveAngryMen | Whilst current duties have necessitated a sabbatical for ‘ TAM ‘ I couldn’t let today pass without thanking everyone for their support and kind words since my appointment. It’s very much appreciated. 9/3/19 is the day we have all being waiting for. There will likely be more BFC fans at Bloomfield Road today than at any home game since 1977 which is going to be incredible to see. I can’t believe it’s here to be honest. It seems only yesterday we first met in the Jag Lounge and formed SISA. Despite being in the club every day over the last two weeks I’m still in awe at how quickly things have moved on. Hopefully you will see some of those changes today. All the staff at BFC and the army of volunteers deserve a huge pat on the back for all they have done. Terry, the coaching team and the players have also been incredibly supportive.Today they will see the support they richly deserve. On a personal level I’d like to thank every BFC fan who had played their part in bringing us to this momentous day. There are too many to mention. It’s quite humbling when you see how committed everyone has been and continues to be to the cause - most recently demonstrated by the Herculean efforts to clean the ground this week. Now we need to move forward as one. All that’s gone before must be left in the past. Only by coming together can we make our club great again. We have a huge task on our hands. Ben, Ian and Mike and all at BFC need our unwavering support to achieve that. Over the last 4 years BFC fans have shown the footballing world that they are a force to be reckoned with, determinedly campaigning for change both at our club and on the national stage. Now we have the platform to show all we can do in a truly positive way. I was asked recently when I’d say ‘ job done ‘ and I replied ‘ When away fans say that they wish their club was run like ours ‘ Let that be the aim. Enjoy Homecoming Day. You’ve earned it !

Whilst today is likely to be very special to many, I suspect there will be fewer feeling justifiably prouder than you, TAM. And deservedly so... | | | |
