bigdan2003 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 nail on the head with that one I will renew, but don't like the idea that I won't get my seat. I have quite an attachment to it, so I wouldn't like to lose it. Don't think I'll not renew just because of it though, but can see many who won't Renew now, and keep your seat.

O_D_A Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I'm also a little surprised at the turnout Although I can appreciate that querying Lee and the W'ite board in an open, physical forum is more difficult than spouting off on here (For the bellends, I'm obviously not referring to those who it was "unfeasible" to attend) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nippyowl Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Financial disaster waiting to happen. Did Lee or the club do any market research regarding this early sales strategy? Surely knowing the poo poo Brian has put us in, no amounf ot words, no matter how many times repeated, would not make up for his failings in assembling this gash squad I'm absolutely astonished that LS and NP make any business decisions without running the ideas past you first.

shez owl Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Yes it was a bit subdued at the meeting but I suppose the newness has gone. But the message lee gave was both reassuring and sobering, reassured that the club is on the right footing, that we have the right people in the right positions at a management level, sober about our lack of ability to improve the squad and just how close the previous regime brought this club to it's knees. Ultimately footy fans want instant success our emotions are based on results each week and our over reaction to one defeat is testoment to that. The truth is this is a long term project and we will have downs before more and more ups, what we as fans have to do is be aware of this and never stop supporting the club that is in our blood. We will get our reward but it won't be tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRUCE LEE Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) Suprise. You'd think a man with so many pressing questions and concerns would take up the chance to get the answers they want.... That or they could sit behind a keyboard and spout unfounded throw. Either/or.

Rodger Wylde Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Just to let you all know, James looked absolutely gorgeous tapping away at the back of the room. He does carry that weight well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeJayOne Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 Do you think it is safe for me to wait until the summer then to renew season tickets ? I absolutely KNOW it's not. Just to let you all know, James looked absolutely gorgeous tapping away at the back of the room. He does carry that weight well. I love you too, why didn't you come and say hello?

Mole Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 (edited) Lee: If we replicate the same revenue budget this next year, we will be in the same position... Blackpool!!! If he really thinks people are going to sign up to season tickets, in the middle of recession, without knowing what division we're playing in, then I want a pint of what he's supping. People are sick to the back teeth of watching utter poo every week, and without investment (which is not happening - how many teams have been bought/invested in during this recession...let me think....NONE) then we will only ever be at the bottom again. LS came on here bigging the team up last summer and how we'd 'invested' in the squad...I wasn't convinced and asked how a couple of freebies that other teams didn't want was investment and was absolutely hounded for it... It's just the same old same old, buy a ticket buy a ticket rah rah rah. Next year's AGM will be interesting, that's if the coward decides to have it at a time when everyone isn't working. *Awaits the shitstorm from the Strafford lovers once again Edited February 26, 2010 by Mole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senwar Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Lee: People shouldn't buty Season Tickets based on what division we're in, it's about supporting our clubThat's the message that keeps being spouted (and yes to an extent I agree). Yet tonight LS states investment is on hold as such until we know what division we are in...... Sorry but the fans are entitled to the same rule if they want. I'm with Sam on this. He summed up my feelings exacly and I think a lot of people are beginning to turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I suppose the difference between fans as investors and Club 9 is that were far more emotionally attached and likely to invest regardless of what league were in. Obviously there may be some that dont renew because of it, but looking at teams that have bounced back immediately they are the ones who have been able to hold onto the majority of their players.
