Guest Hillsborough Mole Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) Our 150th season And we are now telling people to foook off and don't come back - FOR ACCEPTING AN OFFER MADE BY THE CHAIRMAN THAT WAS COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY On top of everything else that the club have messed up. Not the fans. The club. What an absolute mess. And yet - we have fans on here defending it. Incredible. Anybody defending this needs to have a long hard look at themselves.

BUT The way the chairman has since gone about it has been less than professional in my opinion and is making a small matter that could have been dealt with 100% better, into something that will leave a bad taste throughout the whole club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lump On Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 3 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: Nothing I'm not anti-chansiri whatsoever No matter who would have made this offer I'd not have defended it at all It's a disgrace It's really simple... Don't ask for a refund and you won't be banned from buying a season ticket in future. If work commitments stop you going then sell your ticket to a friend or someone that can use it... I think a lot of fans are thinking it's January and the football ain't been great so I will get some money back and that's the sort of fairweather fan that can stay at home and watch on sky from now on... Pathetic. I would love it know how many people who want a refund actually have work commitments i bet it's minimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzzy logics Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Ouch.... I think DC making the offer was a knee jerk reaction to a few vociferous fans requesting a refund. A poor decision by him that unfortunately he had to follow through on. other than that, I think the best thing to say is NO COMMENT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Just now, ... said: I would love it know how many people who want a refund actually have work commitments i bet it's minimal. Ignoring your first paragraph attacking fans This last question I totally agree So why all this? Why does the chairman just not email the people back who asked for it and deal with privately on a one to one basis? He's got their email addresses None of this needed to be splattered all over the press Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owls maniac Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 10 minutes ago, gypsyowl said: the chairman has chucked his toys out of his pram with this ridiculous offer when nobody actually wants their money back, we wanted action carlos should have been sacked months ago where was the statements on current failings when we were all asking questions? that's what a chairman does, not threaten fans that have been here a long time before him & will still be here once he's gone, like most said massive own goal & fan base will be divided at a time when we should all be sticking together now we have the new manager Clear he’d sooner blame the fans than accept responsibility for keeping on a poo manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
football=owls Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 4 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: Why did these people ask for refunds? Be interested to hear I personally have no idea of their circumstances at all Do you? I must say that I am on the side of DC here regarding the unprecedented offer of a refund; if the reason you want a refund is because we are near a relegation fight then too right you should lose your privileges to discounted tickets in the future. The only own goal that has been made by DC in my eyes is no differentiation between fans who have a honest reason (lost job etc) or those who were just throwing their toys out of the pram because of a bad season.

Infact I don’t even have to ask you because I know the answer. You our sir are ridiculous Post not poster. If folk want their money back, they obviously don’t want to go. So stopping em buying anymore is saving em from their waivering decisions in future. We’ve had many a worse season than this and there will be more crappy seasons so why put themselves through the torture if they won’t be getting the success they need to justify their ST prices?

steveger Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Instead of offering a refund they should have offered a game called "half time retribution" based on at last 4 players who got the lowest rating via the clubs pro data stuff (fans rating would be no good as it would be abused with the usual scapegoats every game), those lowest scoring players would then be placed in a set of stocks on the centre spot and fans choosing by another separate competition such as who ate the most pies at the last home game, pie ticket stubs to be issued with the purchase of a pie and kept as evidence, anyway the winning piemunchers , sorry fans could then throw buckets of raw stale tuna at the 4 players not pulling their fingers out, would be great fun and i reckon it would see the crowds rise..... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not banning anyone from attending Hillsborough. He's just telling those who demanded a refund (a ridiculous request IMHO) that they can have their way and can POTG going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
