Shock New Management Team Announced!

[Glenn]

No, not at Rovers, here on BRFCS.

And it's probably not much of a shock either as it's no secret that Ste and I haven't had time to run the site properly for many years. It's also quite well known that we've come close to handing the site over to other people in the past, but it's never quite come off, but finally it has!

You've probably noticed that through the News and the Podcast, Kamy, Josh and Ian have been doing an amazing job around here (whilst Tom, K-Hod, TB and Biddy have carried on doing their awesome work behind the scenes) whilst I've been transitioning into a new job for the second time this year. They haven't just "kept the lights on" like I'd hoped, they've actually revitalised the site in so many ways. So they've kindly agreed to make it a bit more permanent. Ste and I will now step back into the shadows once again (hah, like we've been visible much lately anyway), we're still around as advisers and we're continuing to run the legal/money/limited company side of things (their request not ours) but all the day to day decisions (and even month to month) are theirs to make now.

We wouldn't be doing this if we didn't have utter faith in their abilities and their desire to keep the site a free community resource and to keep driving it forwards.

I've got at least 15 years worth of Thank You's to do, but realistically, it's EVERYONE who needs a Thank You, everyone who keeps coming back day after day.  So THANK YOU, everyone! 

I hope you all join be in welcoming your new management team, I'm off the Bahamas with my ill-gotten gains from the site*, though I'll still be around reading and hopefully posting a bit too!


(* Don't believe the insinuations elsewhere, the site doesn't turn much of a profit, none of us have taken a penny out of the site personally and the new team has full access to the war chest we've built up over the years, so don't believe the "they only keep it running for the revenue" claims I've seen elsewhere, it's been a genuine labour of love. We promised Lee I'd keep it running and I've now finally found a team I think can take over that promise from Ste and I).

Good luck to you, Glenn, and to Ste B. Thanks for all you've done.This really is a cracking Rovers site to be on (in spite of the squabbles). 

[Mike E]

Good stuff! Having been mod alongside K-Hod and Tom, I'm certain the site is going to be fine.

You've done a great job Glenn and Ste!

[philipl]

Brilliant job and many many thanks Glenn and Ste B!

All the very best to the newbies! (Yes I know they have been around for ages and will be fantastic)

[Mark Atkins' Bald Patch]

Thanks Glenn and Ste B, I may not post every day but I'm never off the site and many of us most likely take the service for granted.  Much appreciation and thanks to all of you (past and present) who put in the work to keep everything going.

Good luck to Kamy, Josh and Ian and the rest of the backroom guys going forward.

A big thank you to you two guys for the great work you've done over the years.

This site has been a brilliant resource for all Rovers fans home and abroad.

Good luck and best wishes to the new management team.

Im a relatively 'new' poster but have been reading the site and the forums for many, many years now and it has always been my go-to to gauge fellow fans opinions. Can only say thank you to anyone that has contributed to the site over the years, especially you Glenn and Ste B.

Good luck to the new team!
