  1. The demand for constant and ongoing communication on every conceivable topic by some people on this Board is frankly absurd. The club is a business and one rooted in its community for whom communication should be utilised for effective marketing and occasional good news stories to push the feel good factor. Any serious issues should be communicated when the business in question has had time to analyse and respond to the relevant issue.

     

    I'm a customer of numerous other local businesses also rooted in their community (pubs mainly). I expect them to tell me when something good is happening or they have a promotion taking place. I do not expect to be kept appraised of the full range of financial transactions taking place or if they've had a mysterious visitor from the orient who may be either trying to buy the place or sell them something.

     

    It's frankly ridiculous, move on.

  2. From 12000 miles away and have just watched the highlights. For me not enough praise has been given to Gerrard for our second goal. Instead of just hoofing it forward he looks up towards Holloway and then plays a perfectly weighted ball over the top of the defence. It gives us a 3 on 2 which to be fair Holloway uses brilliantly.

    You're not wrong there Stewrat, it was Futcheresque.

  3. Just one minor point of complaint re last night. I bought a match ticket online about 72 hours before they made it free entrance. I have not sought a refund as I thought the club probably need the money more than I do (it's marginal mind!).

     

    I took along said eticket with the assumption that I would be able to sit in the seat I had paid 15 quid for. I couldn't as the club had given out a free ticket for the same seat.

     

    Not a massive issue as there was one free a couple of seats away but slightly disappointing. Mind you I'll take administrative disappointment every week if it coincides with 3 points.

  4. For the team's sake, I`m glad about this. I think it also serves to illustrate that the Chairman et al do care about the club doesn't it?

     

    If they didn't, they would just have left Robbo in position, saved a few bob in the process, and let us slide into the basement division (or not) as the case may have been. As it is, they have taken action to try and immediately improve our position. As someone else has said, I think, it also "puts to bed" some of the theories around why Shez left in the first place.

     

    He is, in my opinion, certainly the right man for the moment - and hopefully for building in the medium to long term (if we dare use those phrases!).

     

    Anyone know what odds you can get on us staying up? I`m not the betting type but wouldn't mind a little wager on this now.

    Amazingly we're a best priced 8/11 to get relegated so you wouldn't get much better than even money on us staying up.
