Floatn Over

Still got the supporter share release brochure which goes with these.  Worrying times but still proud that we with the AG8 contract terminations of course made it happen.

Would love to hear the Dreadnoughts at every game. I'm sure it would become our new anthem

Can only hope, think we’re missing an opportunity if not.

Oh yes - I’ve been bigging up that tune on here for a couple of years - it’s just perfect in my opinion ...

 

Fully agree, I really do wish we would try this one, just once; I’m convinced it would catch on.  Needs to be on full volume.  It could be so us.

On another thread I changed the words slightly to give a home and away version but didn’t seem much interest.

All of the above, certainly far better to watch, a real team spirit now and definitely something building.

Really good attitude this lad has after being thrown under buses, left out, brought back in, loaned out, forgotten, poorly treated by LJ.  Others would have been throwing toys out of prams all over the place but not TM just keeps on going with a smile.  A long loan out playing week in and week out in a fixed position at a level he can take in his stride may do wonders, possibly NP’s thinking.

I still think there is a good player in there.

You should. You just need to balance it off with looking at other clubs who have had success with new owners, both on and off the field.

Man City, Leicester, Brighton, Brentford to an extent. That's the only ones I'd class as having true success on and off the pitch in terms of playing and infrastructure. Man City is an extreme example too as they were essentially bought by a country...

There's teams that have benefitted on the playing side only (as far as I'm aware) - Cardiff, Watford, Swansea, Villa, Bournemouth, Wolves.

The flip-side is Portsmouth, Derby, Sheff Wed, Birmingham, Forest, Coventry, Sunderland, Hull, Charlton, Ipswich, Wigan, Bolton. Teams who can't/couldn't pay players, fire-sale of players, points deductions, administration, tumbling down the leagues.

 

I believe SL has focussed on the infrastructure side first, and once this is done (is the training ground the last piece?) then only has the playing side to focus on. He hasn't 'neglected' the squad, still spending on wages and transfer fees, but I think that is to keep us constant in the championship so we are in a. good position to push.

On the balance of probability (and our luck) we'd be taken over by someone who would see us go backwards rather than forwards. I don't fancy risking the future of the club for a season or two in the prem and then 25 years trying to recover.

Paragraph 5 “I believe.....” is spot on IMO, it’s frustrating waiting for sure but the stars are not aligned / ducks are not in a row.....Yet
