  1. It is alot easier to care about the club when you are earning ££££ to do so!!!
  2. So our average attendance figures for 2001 are almost 1000 less than this years average figures - with is currently around the 4k mark! Thanks for making my point BTW, I have watched latics for 25 years and I know from 1994 our attendances have gradually dropped. I'm also willing to bet that if attendances for this season continue then we are in for our lowest numbers since 1994. You really are grasping at straws!
  3. I'm not even considering your point just hammering home my point.
  4. Our attendances are a few hundread down on last season, and despite decent performances at homethis season attendances have dropped every home game so far. However, I was looking at the big picture when 5 years ago, and don't quote me on this, we averaging around 6500 fans a game at home in league one. It;s not looking good however you paint it
  5. let me put it another way. They no longer have any ambition for the club. They want out just as soon as possible. However, if perspective buyers are not found sooon I fear they may just walk.
  6. We have a 3-sided stadium, no where to drink within the stadium, the pies run out before half-time, the owners don't seem to care and have no ambition, match day ticket are to expenisve for league 1 football. I could go on. Obviously these things do not matter to you. However, they most certainly do to thousnads who have stoped attending in the past few years.
  7. At the end of the day, whether you want to acknowldege it or not, we are losing fans by the bucket load. Furthermore, if the club continues to bury its head in the sand then you may well see latics playing in non-league football in a field. Perhaps then you will be happy
  8. Well something has changed because we are losing fans by the bucket load???
  9. To an extent I agree. However, looking at a 3-sided stadium does not help. You can't have a drink in the stadium now, and pies run out before the end of half time. The club has to make an effort to entice the fans back otherwise why should we bother. Get my drift ;)
  10. So tell me why 2000 + fans have stopped attending in the last 5 years? You are seriously deluding yourself if you think the stadium and matchday experience has nothing to do with it!?
  11. Obviously he still cares about the club but will not go back to BP until the clubs meet him halfway i.e A four sided stadium and better matchday experience.
  12. Are you a cock!!! People condemn him because he doesn't go to Bp anymore yet still has front to post post on here. he is 1 of thousands who choose not go anymore so get over yourself.
  13. Perhaps if people tried understanding 0000 reasons for staying away, rather than condenming his absence he would not be so smug about it!!!!
  14. Granted a winning team would improve attendances ever so slightly!However, if you think the state of boundary park and the general matchday experience has nothing to do low attendences you are seriously deluded young man
  15. You say the clubs poor attendances is in part due due the finanical meltdown. This may be at best 5% of the problem. I bet if you looked at the overall attendance figures and how we have ranked in league over the past 10 years - you would see a steady decline in our position! Where are all the statoes when you need one?
  16. Stp making excuses mate and take away the blinkers. Our club is in dire straits!!!
  17. Nothing! For the most part strikers cost £££. Something that is in short supply at the moment and the forseeable future.
  18. I can see it now - league 2 football playing in front of sub 2000 attendances.
  19. I've got you all beat. A 30 minute drive in my car from Southend
  20. I'm happy to see the mods have moved away from the idea that any speech is free speech! A more balanced approach to moderating will in the long term improve the quality of the board. Keep up the good work
  21. The posters who use the phrase 'must win' use it a little differently to others. Every latics game for me is a must win because I expect us to, realistically or not, try and win every game. Especially after we have just thrown away a point at the death the previous game! Eitherway, some posters on here need to chill out and stop taking every word uttered on here literally. Take a breath...read it in the context it was supposed to be read and cheerthe :censored: up! We'll all be dead soon anyway
  22. ok because the highs are so infrequent when they do occur, i.e everton away, they are so much sweeter! Y ou can say I was there!!!!
