League one forever

I agree with your sentiment. Only issue is, will AL want that kind fan involvement? Absolulety not. His ego alone wouldn’t let him.

Think he’ll stay in the summer? Or be off?

What Eyrsey said. I will add this, the chances of success under AL are very slim. Fractured clubs don’t tend to do well. Blackpool is really good example. They went up despite all the off field stuff, and played in front 2000 fans. Why? If it’s all about success? Surely by your way of thinking they should of had bumper crowds on the back of a promotion but they didn’t. For lots of small clubs they are at the heart of the community, they want to see it thrive in every aspect. Not just at 3pm on Saturday. Seasons ticket sales aren’t down because we are out of form. Or not in the playoffs. (In fact they went up after we got relegated last season) They are down because people have become weary/apathetic to how the club is run. It will need a sustained period of quiet and stability for a lot of fans to come round IMO. Will we get it? Probably not.

So where do you stand again?

Still need to win every game for playoffs IMO. Tall order. Great win though!

Night.

I hate my life.

Until Ritchie comes and dances on our grave next week. .

Fair dos.

2-0.

Of course not everybody is the same. Doesn’t mean i wont challenge their view on a football forum. You need to realise that.

We’re good at winning football matches aren’t we? The crowds are flocking down to watch us finish as high as possible. Season tickets are on the up, because all people care about is watching french 4th division players. We sack managers in our thirst for promotion. Fuck the bills, the staff, as long as we win. . . . Yeah. It’s all about the football.

Nice try Harry.

When will you all realise it’s not about the football or the division??? We’re all hurting because the club feels lost. The community feels lost. Get that back and it doesn’t matter what division we’re in. Look at Wimbledon. I wish people would stop stressing about League footballl. An concentrate on getting our identity back.

Aye. I fancy us tomorrow. Lots of the teams we are about to play have a lot more to lose than us. We can play with a bit more freedom.

You can’t win em all Billy. .

I don’t think you get there not paid. . . I would imagine your questions come about 17th on their daily to do list. Maybe sometimes they can answer, maybe sometimes they can’t. That’s life. The level of detail you require (whilst not unreasonable) does need somebody to be on top of things all the time. Not for an hour in the evening when they finally get chance to sit down. So yes, is it to much ask that they will always know even relativity simple things, because they just haven’t had the time to check/speak to somebody. Worth remembering IMO.

Your relentless. Do you never see the person behind the role?? Ie job/kids/mrs all whilst still trying to answer your incessant questions. He offered to go for a beer with you to discuss things with you. I assume by the volume of your questions and concern, you did go to meet him???

Fair enough.

No you replied to remind us of our plight or bring the bigger picture into focus. Which you’ve just qualified again. I am saying, that if we keep winning. Very a few will give a toss about AL. That’s the reality.

You even had a couple say last night, I’m no fan of AL but. . . Thats after two wins.

I agree that the health of the club is fundamental. However, results dictate mood massively. If Wild keeps winning, people will go quiet on AL. If we stay where we are, people will chirp up. It’s the same at every football club.

What’s your point? Scholes didn’t get results because he doesn’t know the club, and can’t inspire players?

Yeah, agree with that. I just think Scholes blamed things to mask his own shortcomings. Wild is working in exactly the same circumstances both prior and after Scholes with better results. Chuffed for him.
