Cersei Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 I am actually a part timer of 'Owlstalk' because of posters like you. What evil have I bestowed that should affect you so strongly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthowl Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I'm a true fan so won't comment on the OP. But, in a similar way that penalties and tap ins don't count for a Wednesday player's goal scoring record, should "bump" posts be discounted from an Owlstaker's posting record?

Cersei Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 I love that THIS is your first post after 8 years on Owlstalk - I feel like there's a legend to be told, here! Nobody's going to top this, surely? Amazing scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossyOwl Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Move the stadium closer to my house and I'm in. Although I play golf on Saturdays, so actually, I'm in once we qualify for the Europa League (not the champions league - not as convenient for me and also marginally less likely to happen) and play mainly on Sundays and Thursdays. Plus the moving the stadium closer to me thing too. In summary, ill be there on the reg very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I'm a true fan so won't comment on the OP. But, in a similar way that penalties and tap ins don't count for a Wednesday player's goal scoring record, should "bump" posts be discounted from an Owlstaker's posting record? Hmmm...not sure, really. I suppose we could use brackets like they do to indicate substitute appearances: 10,260 posts (3,571 'bumps')? But then are we undermining the complex layers of meaning potentially conveyed by the utterance of 'bump'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildgust Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) For me to go week in week out it would simply have to be good value for money!I've gone to about 4-7 games a season over last 8 seasons and I've had 4-5 season tickets in the past.I had it hard parting with hard earned cash to watch average crap (many times below this). For example Tuesday match after work last season playing Birmingham playing out the most boring 0 0 draw ever!! Personally I prefer a good away day, better atmosphere better value and overall experience.With the new regime I don't like the fact that they have lumped up the prices and appear to have a fairly incoherent business strategy that from the outside looks although the owner has put thought into it clearly has no experience of managing a football club etc. The fact he has recruited a group of "advisors" Roeder etc illustrates that they truly are clueless when it comes to football in so many levels. In how many other clubs has a structure that they've introduced at SWFC actually succeeded?Ripping out of the club a experienced manager that had been doing a reasonable job and making steady improvements to....... Nothing??? Clearly this has not been planned otherwise this would have happened swiftly at the end of the season with an immediate replacement! The fact this has not happened shows poor planning and is quite worrying.I'm quite a positive person but with evidence of behavior of new owner and management I'm quite worried about the direction of the club. I dread to think we would be like Blackburn or Leeds chucking good money at a situation that simply could be better achieved through good management to a degree!Whilst there is a clear lack of direction, lack of a "message" and cohesion in the team/club I'm not motivated to spend my money to support that.Whilst Milan was at the club I was a lot more positive, nice guy, good business head. You could easily respect the guy and his direction and plans. He was transparent, bright and his goal was obvious. Equally I'd happily spend money to go watch the team occasionally to support that (occasionally because it was painfully crap most of the time)Anyway that's my thoughts!

So in this age of your Swansea, Hull, Burnley, Southampton, Watford, Leicester swanning around in the money pit of Premier League Football you want to carry on in the same sweet way that has brought us exactly what over the last twenty years?We may fail at trying something different, but for goodness sake give it a chance!
