  1. The 40k viewed feature was a small example of the exposure our plight is getting. There is significant exposure everywhere.
  2. Sorry. Please dont take it personally but if you cannot see the bigger picture it’s difficult for me to have a meaningful discussion with you.
  3. Agreed although I’m still convinced he’ll get beyond December without having reach an agreement with someone and leave
  4. It’s not in my nature to tell people what to do.. everyone should make their own decisions in life. However I am quite comfortable to advise when people look for it. Which is the case in this instance. With regards your point on media exposure, Talk Sport alone have kept the conversation going by discussing our plight on a regular basis. Their chat with Stefan Borson yesterday regarding our plight has had 47k views. Their interview with Barry Bannan on the subject has had 42k views.. thats TalkSport alone. Wednesday fans not being in Hillsborough on match day combined with being very vocal at away games is food and drink for media. Take away either and there is less of a story for the media outlets to talk about and currently they most definitely are talking about our football club.
  5. Agreed. Surely it’s not that difficult to comprehend?
  6. The most significant single reason not to boycott away games is that it keeps our story in the media spotlight… which is absolutely crucial to keep the pressure on Chansiri. Hope that helps
  7. Please take a step back and see the bigger picture. Of course it’s terrible that staff and bills have not been paid but I’m sure the staff are hoping that the boycotts and actions by the fans will eventually provide them with an owner that is willing and capable of paying them their salary without delay. Don’t forget Chansiri was struggling to pay people before the protests started.
  8. Genuine answer. For this particular game, the objective is not just to avoid spending any money in the stadium. The key objective is to have zero Wednesday fans in the stadium so that the TV cameras and press can record the ‘stay away’ protest and share to the world. Ultimately, therefore putting more pressure on Chansiri to sell. The ‘young lads’ you refer to, I’m sure are well aware that this protest is going ahead.
  9. Patience required
  10. Exactly how I felt
  11. Not every situation is exactly the same.
  12. A snake because he decided he wanted a more balanced work place? Have you had the same job all your working life?
  13. Hopefully they’ll be acting on it and announcing today .. they could do with a distraction today
  14. Tom Lees is /was an awful footballer.
  15. Surely (to a point) the IFR has to be the saviour of us and other clubs otherwise they have no worth as a body. They are (will be) there specifically to deal with areas of our national sport that the EFL cannot as they are just a competition organiser. They will ensure financial sustainability… as such that won’t allow the Chansiri business model of selling every player to balance the books, to continue. The Independent Football Regulator (IFR) will oversee English football, enforcing a licensing system for clubs in the top five tiers to ensure financial sustainability, protect club heritage, and enforce standards for governance and fan engagement. Key powers include new owners' and directors' tests, a ban on joining unmeritocratic breakaway leagues, a backstop to enforce financial redistribution if clubs fail to agree on one, and a mandate for fan involvement in decisions affecting a club's core identity
  16. I can assure you I don’t need to read Chansiri’s resume. It’s fixed in my thought process constantly. My point was that you suggested that the entire fan base have ‘took it on the chin’. That is not entirely true. I didn’t go yesterday and quite a few more didn’t either. Only 4k went to watch the Leeds game. That is, at a guess, around 20k less than would have normally turned up. The club has barely sold any merchandise, not least the shirts. A minority (still too many) may have ‘taken it on the chin’ but not the entire fan base as you suggested. Keep it real
  17. Thats not entirely true is it?
  18. I could be wrong but I suspect the Trust already knew the club (Chansiri) would say no. But it is more content to squeeze the tyrant with. Many people only read the headline of a story.
  19. Unfortunately there has been a few fantastic, inventive ideas laughed at. Usually by unimaginative, blinkered people I suspect.
  20. Yes. 100% narcissistic behaviour. Cause a problem, deliver a distraction, provide a resolve to the self created problem and then he’s assumes people see him as the perfect owner. Repeat
  21. It’s unfortunate that the situation at the club alone is not enough to stop some people attending the Leeds game. That said, we’re all different and react to situations in different ways.. and that’s fine. I would never dictate to others (on any subject) however, I still struggle to comprehend that people cannot see the consequences of attending a game where the revenue goes to the idiot. He will not be using the money to better our club. Anyone going to the Leeds game is chipping away at the future of our club just as Chansiri has for 10 years.
