How many times do I have to tell you. It's a 15 minute walk for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point agree with that. Time has changed since Jack and Fergie though and with the amount of money success has to be quicker. I do agree with your points though. Hopefully CC has another successful season. It wouldnt put me over the line with DC but yes I would be upset. Keeping a manager doesnt guarantee success either though as I said 4 managers since 2011/12 season and we have progressed every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imre Varadi Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Just seen this tweet..... I love my club , but this is a disgrace ! Five corporate boxes sold , the best commercial manager in the country leaves.Hospitality packages unsold because of the crazy prices.I have had a season ticket for over thirty years and during that time a commercial ticket in a lounge.When it goes up £700 for no reason , enough is enough.All 18 occupants of our lounge have said "enough" I cannot believe that people who have supported the club through thick and thin are now been asked to pay exorbitant prices that they can no longer afford.Very , very sad !

dumboldowl Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 The only way that DC would lose my support would be if there was evidence that he was not trying to achieve his stated objectives, and there are no signs of that whatsoever. On the contrary, he appears to be steering the club in the right direction whether everyone agrees with his methods or not. Dejphon Chansiri is the owner of the club and he who pays the piper calls the tune. In my humble opinion many of the complaints are coming from people with very short memories.

If results trail off I think a few more will start getting disgruntled. If the story on the squad numbers is true that Chansiri picked them with his favourite players getting lucky Thai numbers interesting but not sure why anyone would get upset about it. Moving stadium is a line in the sand for me. Would not say I would stop calling myself a Wednesdayite but would find it hard to go to games. Although habits of a lifetime are hard to break. Changing name also a no no for me. Get feeling both wont happen but I would have said that about charging £42 for a seat on the Kop. I still cant get over that. Think West Ham…If we moved to a new stadium,I'm sure you and more or less every single one of us would trot along. Not that Im advocating it as I love Hillsborough and would hate to leave but if the worst came to the worst, I'd turn up at the latest breeze block, corrugated plastic, unimaginative designed stadium. It's what we fans do, blind loyalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kit doesn't bear any resemblance to any kit I recall either, but maybe in 50, 60 years when they change the kit back to stripes, there will be some fans scratching their heads thinking. "Didn't we used to wear stripes back when I were a lad?" Traditions come traditions go, still wouldn't surprise me that stripes will make a quick return, maybe in 15 to 20 years. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, who is the "best commercial manager" referred to in this post? Because that's a load of absolute horse whoever it was. We aren't the "best commercial" anything if our club shop and other retail ventures are anything to go by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.. Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Kit not being blue and white, name not including Wednesday, think that would be the line for me, I wouldn't mind a new stadium, wouldn't mind (in fact I'm a strong proponent) the name of the stadium being changed. I believe that for many people the line is that the chairman is foreign so anything that came after is irrelevant, there is definitely a minority that wouldn't care what division were were in as long as the chairman was from Yorkshire.

I often felt Milan got a lot of criticism, some of which was unfair, he didn't invest the massive amounts on players some people expected, but he left a very solid foundation. Maybe some people have issues with the Chairman's nationality/race? After all this is a fanbase that doesn't seem to understand what racism and the like is at times.
