Hang on- you said in the other thread we’re big fish In this division able to attract a relatively high calibre of player. I asked you where you expect us to finish, and you said top ten. Now above- AL and is just going to keep cutting his cloth and the quality of player will be lower. Which one is it? Or are you posting direct contradictions of your own view on different threads?

Potentially, who knows, I certainly don't think anybody is making any money out of it. I don't get the mindset of the half in, half out boycotters and what they are hoping to achieve.

Well the captain of the reigning champions chose to come here over at least one other NL team and Porter was offered a chance to go to a L2 side in the area (albeit told he would not be a regular) and still chose to come here...

There was a boycott, this was put on hold for the reasons explained multiple times already, the club failed to deliver on their promises and so the boycott is back on. It really is very simple.

Dare any of us ask what your suggestion would be to try and speed up the removal of the owners. Or do you think either a) any attempt is futile so there's no point trying, or b) happy/indifferent to the owners staying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct. However conflating a tiny percentage of an away ticket with full home match ticket and spend in the ground is clutching to say the least.

That’s a fair point. If you’re going to away games- you must accept that the squad will be poor without home match revenue. Unless you think that we’re big fish, money doesn’t matter and we’ll romp the league anyway based on our tradition alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
