Hi Bob, any more talk ins planned with the owners and manager?speaking to the fans mixing with the fans, big mistake
I meant on social mediaHi Bob, any more talk ins planned with the owners and manager?![]()
Angry because your 6% is gonna be worth fuck all now? Hope you take a bath on this one, son. Teach you a f***ing lesson you’ll never forget. Stick to coors.Posted on another thread but in case you missed it - recent post on our site (oxford) talking about stuart
I’ve always found north East fans bizarre. They really do have an insupportable superiority complex that makes them believe you’re privileged to meet them.
This lot have clumsily tumbled down to our level, like many other sides before with slightly above average support like Portsmouth, Blackburn, Man City, and seemingly want us to all be in awe. They are no different except for the sheer levels of delta between reality and expectation. That article is completely devoid of the actual reasons for their anger , just more emotive nonsense about some romanticized ideal of who they claim to be. So what are these awful crimes the owner has committed. He’s had about 18 months to turn around years of engrained failure embedded into the seeds of their dna. Do they understand what it takes to turn a business around? Methven, for all his ills, may be right about the lack of corporate education up there.
1. Stadium sold off?
2. Name and colors changed?
3. Asset stripped?
4. HMRC payments missed?
5. Failure to buy players? (Griggs must be a record at this level and shows huge commitment given debts and operating losses at this level)
They’re actually showing huge ignorance as to the operating costs at this level relative to the lack of tv revenue and commercial revenue. They built this pitiful lower league existence by being part of the premiership money gravy train for so long, suckling on the teet of sky TVs money and ignoring the plight of the lower leagues. Now they reap their reward. Welcome to the other side of the fence you gravy train muppets. Deal with it or change it if you ever rise from league one, which no doubt they will eventually.
What they really need to learn is a dose of humility and recognition of where they are. The article states that those outside the region won’t understand. Another statement laced in self importance and the equivalent of Christians argument of “the greatest trick the devil pulled was making you think he doesn’t exist”. Impossible to disprove but substantiates nothing. We are perfectly capable of recognizing what we see.
In reality their first season they got to a play off final. Good season. They can look to their own impatience for the demise of their reasonably decent last manager and so called current plight where they are still well within touching distance of the play offs and only half the season gone. How many teams get relegated and bounce back first time?
Given they’ve won f**k all in decades then perhaps they should just enjoy a new league with new stadiums to visit and more real opposition fan base to engage with rather than the plastics of higher leagues.Rather than creating a toxicity, forcing a relatively decent guy out as owner, and ending up with a genuine devil in charge that the likes of Blackpool and Charlton could reference for them

Want only that man he didn’t have any clue of players from England at this levelHe'd never managed in the EFL never mind League One. Going from the Scottish Championship to L1 was too much for him, although we trained him up lovely for Hibs
How do you like the name Salmon Pants? Seems canny popular on the Oxford forumPosted on another thread but in case you missed it - recent post on our site (oxford) talking about stuart

Very hard to argue against all of this. An accurate description of SAFC and the absolute cluster-fuck that SD took on, though how anyone can argue support for Methven's crass education comments I do find baffling.Posted on another thread but in case you missed it - recent post on our site (oxford) talking about stuart

He's come close with no 1. The stadium is owned by his holding company that has taken out loans from America with the stadium as security.So what are these awful crimes the owner has committed. He’s had about 18 months to turn around years of engrained failure embedded into the seeds of their dna.

Scratch 6, 7 and 9. I was wrong and Donald was right. We are back where we were when Ross was sacked, but we have a manager who knows his best eleven, he was a style of play and attacking intent. The other 6 were still fuckups thoughHere is my top 10 poor decisions, there are more........
1. Selling Maja too early (cost us promotion)
2. Releasing other players and not replacing with better (Honeyman, James, Catermole, Matthews)
3. Untruths about his investment capability and outside financial backing (Satori et al.)
4. Taking his eye off the ball trying to sell the club since before the playoffs
5. Not signing an in form striker
6. Sacking Jack Ross (had no chance given all of the above)
7. Replacing with Parkinson
8. Underestimating how hard it would be to attract better players (see item 2)
9. Not sacking Parkinson a month ago
10. Signing Grant Leadbitter when we didn’t need him (great attitude but legs gone)
