What a difference in attitude and work rate from the boardroom ,club staff on the pitch and off it and especially the references to the fans who all these years on still leave such an impression on all four especially after the Hereford Utd semi-final home 2nd leg win. Wouldn't swap any of those memories from the old 1st Div ,Spurs league Cup Semi-final ect days I am still waiting on confirmation of this trip.Yesterday I went to remembrance Sunday on the centre,whilst there I could not believe the amount of PEOPLE like you and me sleeping in doorways (trenchard st),begging (everywhere) and looking though bins at Za za bizarre.these players are on a average I guess are on around 7_10grand a week and they piss off to Dubai for nothing.I hope this story is not true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot believe that the senior management would allow this when the team has performed as badly over the recent times. This is just taking the p1ss when the supporters are paying their hard earned cash and putting up with this dross. I have supported this club since 1965, obviously seen all the ups and downs over those years but when you consider how these plonkers are treated these days it beggars belief. Apologies, rant over but I have never felt so hard done by by my club. SL for gods sake wake up and give your customers something to smile about. We live in a society where you can be richly rewarded for trashing a bank and where failed politicians can line their pockets with lucrative 'consultancies'. The upper divisions of football are just another area where you can be rewarded for failure and believe you deserve it I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 This thread is embarrassing some fans should get a grip. So what if they are going to Dubai for a few days. What do people expect them to do in the next two weeks? Sit in a corner of a darkened room and think about what they’ve done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Football in 2018: Fan pays £40 to watch 90 minutes of abysmal football by average footballer, goes home miserable. Average footballer gets paid £10,000 a week to play 90 minutes abysmal football, goes to Dubai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babbacome Dave Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 No BigC I don't expect them to sit in a darkened room and think about what they have done (that shouldn't take too long anyway) but if your employer decided to REWARD you with with a nice break in sunny Dubai I'm sure it would be for something special that you would have done in your employment. Currently on the management and players performances of late there is nothing to justify any type of reward. All this does in my humble opinion is rub the paying supporters up the wrong way.

Roadrunner Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 And you wonder why we lose so much money every year. Yes i understand it is only a small part of the total loss. But it shows you their mindset, they have got it too soft. Toughen them up or ship them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtimmy11 Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 This thread has really got me thinking tonight if after 1year this January of not going down the gate I really want to bother again.This season was the first season any member of my family has not had a season ticket since 1985.my grandad,dad and even my in-laws bought worthless shares back in around1982 to try and keep the club going but after hearing they have all gone to Dubai has really been the final straw.

I liked this post but find it very sad and know how hard this is to do, not the only one I`ve seen recently either. Bigger problem is I don't think the club even care.......a few fans have spat their dummies out....so what. Maybe a few thousand less ST sales will stir them? no doubt it; maybe the place we are going, down this div, will do it? doubt that either; LJ will get lucky at some stage and come across a few points to save his job. As I`ve said before only an new injection of life (a new manager and a few less suits) will give hope to this our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Zod Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Maybe they should chip in and send us for a week in the sun as compensation for sitting through 90 mins of boredom on Saturday. Seriously though, it didn’t improve form last season so why repeat the exercise this time round. Surely you try something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
