Anything but a fair weather fan pal. The club have had loads of money out of me. I've had zero interest in going this season, if the club are going to take the piss out of the fans then **** them. You just said we're not doing very well so you can't be arsed to go, that's fair enough but is the definition of a fair weather fan I missed plenty of games due to finances / kids being young family commitments etc but never just because we were having a poor run of results 1

Much more realistic description of this seasons debacle. 6
Dragon_man Posted 9 December, 2024 Posted 9 December, 2024 Some say the £12m pay-off would mean we'd break FFP rules and risk point deduction. How come we can't sell a £12m player to offset this in January? KWP won't stay in the summer, so perhaps we could get £12m for him now (I know he's one of our better players and that's a risk, but changing manager would be better in my mind). Failing that, there's plenty of fringe players from our bloated squad that should raise £13m.

I also don't believe in this day and age there isn't some kind of performance clause in RMs contract, there is no way even Sports Rebuclic would gamble that kind of money on someone completely untested in the premier league. 1

Much more realistic description of this seasons debacle. Exactly. We've all been through poor runs but this is different. The complete delusion from the management who are basically in it for themselves. Why do the players/staff regularly have two days off a week? We are at the lowest ebb and the team is unfit. They should be doing everything possible to turn it around. Lack of effort from them, no wonder the fans are so disgruntled. Edited 9 December, 2024 by Harry_SFC 5
