Always an element of luck involved, dropping on right place right time, learning from yours and others mistakes. i suppose football is no different, certainly with managers.

I really don't think anyone cares how long someone has supported the club Context!!!! someone with 40 plus years of season ticket support to the Club saying they are no longer prepared to continue going.....its their opinion in a thread but to me its an alarming trend..This tell it to someone who cares or similar is just macho nonsense 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto deleting an account on here,you think only fans who attend match's should be able to post on 'Owlstalk'? It was aimed at the people who brag about how long they have supported the club and saying they ain't gonna put another penny in the club obviously meaning they are going not going to watch the games if they feel that way find something else to do don't post negativety just delete your account be happy in what you do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vote in elections and listen very carefully to the debates and yes a little with the heart but I always know what I am voting for. The on-field situation is awful right now. I can criticise that as I've watched it. But I can't criticise the management too much as I have no idea whatis going on within the club. Sure from the outside with little or no information it doesn't look ideal but I don't know sufficient to form any conclusive view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you 'happy clap' away as much as you want,but i will continue to post my views on Owlstalk as long as i wish(or am allowed) My love of the Club is undiminished and will remain so........BUT its not unconditional Edited December 31, 2020 by parajack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that if you want to force an owner out that could be one way of doing it but a what cost to the club? No point in forcing him out if the club fails.
