  1. No one was attacking you, or anyone else. I certainly wasn't. You are boycotting on your terms, that's great, the ways you usually help fund the club are being denied to the chump in charge. This was an observation, granted not a particularly useful one, that there are a considerable number of fans who don't actually financially contribute, in any way, ever, who are talking a big game in terms of the boycott.
  2. The whole point of trying to focus on a single game is for people like the original poster - it's an acknowledgment that they have chosen to continue attending (for multivarious reasons) but is asking that for this single game could they make a special effort.
  3. I think you've misunderstood the original message - Ian is saying that a number of the loud people talking about boycotting games are people that don't go anyway. If they are now 'boycotting' but normally don't go then their 'boycott' makes no discernible difference.
  4. I won't be buying it but I really like it - conjures memories of Fiorentina greats like Batistuta and Laudrup.
  5. His rank incompetence causes innumerable problems on a day to day basis but he gets into the worst trouble whenever he tries to box clever - ground sale, Windass & Smith, Röhl etc.
  6. You don't get rich and stay rich by handing money away for nothing. Takeover close is still not takeover done and a buyer putting their hands in their pockets prematurely gives Desperate Dej more rope to string you along with. You'd have to be mad to hand him any money - it will be gone forever.
  7. I'm becoming very suspicious of 'recent sign ups' on here. Is it ignorance or is it purposefully misleading?
  8. Because things need to be paid for - pitch, stand repairs etc and 'don't worry a takeover might happen' doesn't pay those bills. You'd be mad as the buyer to front anything up ahead of it all being signed off because he's penniless and you'll never see it again if something unforeseen scuppers the deal. I also wouldn't put it past Desperate Dejphon to pocket the remainder as a little bonus on the ay out the door.
  9. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cy7ng4vj8leo That's the figure the BBC is quoting - New York Times, L'Equipe, The Mirror, The Sun etc.
  10. It's about a week old and already been proven fake. Surprisingly, the pitch looks like it is progressing well - Rob O'Neill (the commentator on Wednesday iFollow) posted a picture the yesterday on his twitter - https://xcancel.com/WednesdayRob/status/1931341446566588794#m
  11. I appreciate this is on a much more grand scale but for me the original poster has earned quite a lot of faith. Last summer he said very early doors that Windass had signed and he was bang on but there were weeks that passed before that news became public and lots of counter stories and questions, including from the local press boys in that intervening period. Same with DR in January to an extent. Easier said than done but try and chill out.
  12. Came across really well in the Netflix documentary too.
  13. The (previous) Director of Football at Plymouth was the main reason Rooney ended up there - he'd been an academy coach at Everton. Problem was Rooney was such a disastrous appointment he took his mate down with him.
  14. Most if not all of the guys in the suits and Wednesday shirts did the match ball sponsor duties pre-match - it was announced as something, something Electrical/s maybe finding that company name out will give an avenue for further investigation? Does anyone have a programme?
  15. I think part of the 'struggle' this year is that most of our points and best performances have been on the road. At home we're watching a cusp of the relegation zone season and away its a comfortable Play Off places season. Together it adds up to what is an impressive almost Play Off performance, but with most of us only experiencing the lesser part of it first hand. https://www.soccerstats.com/homeaway.asp?league=england2
