  1. Yeah, I’m at least going to make them wait for their money, not throw it at them as soon as they snap their fingers! I’ll be doing nothing until the last minute for sure, but when deadline day comes, I might just say shove it and walk away. That’ll be largely down to how the club is being run, not what’s happening on the pitch.
  2. …. and we aren’t entitled to moan?? We’ve accrued a debt of £200m and all we’ve got to show for it is a ground refurbishment costing possibly £40m, but we no longer even own the ground! We’ve had a diabolically bad return for that level of investment and the blame for that lies wholly with Lansdown.
  3. We’ve been a division above the sags for most of our history, so what makes you think we wouldn’t have without Lansdown? We may have had an owner who could actually run a football club without racking up massive debts through his appalling decision making. Who knows what could have been, but I’m totally sick of what we’ve become under daddy and junior Lansdown and can’t wait to see the back of them.
  4. It's a little prompt to Daddy Lansdown to sell up and F off, if I'm not mistaken. I'll second that too!
  5. ‘kin ell, is that supposed to be pumping up the fans for Friday???
  6. It’s not really about the money though is it, it’s more to do with making a statement. You and the other quick payers clearly aren’t bothered about how the club is being tun and keep sucking it up. Your choice of course, but I can’t see this club improving until fans start showing some backbone and stop rewarding mediocrity.
  7. Too right! The football’s plenty boring enough on its own, without punishing ourselves even more with the mind numbing pressers.
  8. Geat occasion and I extended it with a few days stay up in London, so had a cracking time. Some great memories of a time when we could take some genuine pride in the club we support.
  9. They could really find this coming back and biting them on the ass. Imagine them missing out on season ticket sales to people wanting to transfer their ST over to the SS from other stands and then having a poor uptake of potd tickets. Instead of empty seats due to no-show ST holders (money already in the club’s pocket) and instead have empty seats due to people not taking up potd (so no money at all). Could turn out to be a massive own goal. As the saying goes, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
  10. That looks like how our early bird system used to work, before our club decided to rinse us fans for whatever they can squeeze out of us. Now we’ve got to hand over our money early and swallow a price rise, just to retain our seat.
  11. Very fair comment. Tourist fans go to high profile or successful clubs, not to watch the dross we dish out. If a’tourist’ was daft enough to come along once, they certainly wouldn’t return!
  12. I just hope it’s the crappest teams possible, to give us the best chance of staying up next season, if our bright and sparkling young head. coach is still hanging in there
  13. Guess so, though I’ve mellowed a bit towards Colin in my older years ….. probably due the painful lack of characters in the game now. Love him or hate him, he certainly doesn’t fade into the background. We’re well aware of the lack of character issue with Mr Personality Bypass Manning!
  14. That’s how I read that too. Basically they’re saying, if you don’t renew your SS ST by deadline day, you lose any chance of getting a new ST there in the foreseeable future, even if your previous seat is still available. Talk about bouncing you into renewing by waving a big stick. ******* arseholes
  15. Unfortunately that potential means Jack shit while those out of their depth people and absent owner continue at this club. Just watch the potential all disappear over the next couple of transfer windows too. The so-called pathway for the young talent now seems to have disappeared, as how else can you explain decisions like bringing in someone like Mabude, when Yeboah doesn’t get a sniff any more? We’re just a rudderless boat, with a couple of idiots sat on board and flapping their hands in the water to move it, as they’re too stupid to realise you actually need oars to make it move. Total shambles and all of the club’s/owner’s own doing
