Pi$$ed As A Mattress 0 Posted April 29, 2008 Bearing in mind that 25000 of us turn up week in, week out to watch our team does anyone feel like we are undervalued by our friends in the boardroom?.Now I am not remotely interested in demonstrations etc and I am not stirring the shite but I wonder if anyone shares my view that we are probably the most short-changed supporters in the country. We are rarely told anything unless it is boll**ks and our board try and convince us that they can barely afford the electricity bill.I know that some things cannot be made public but for crying out loud can we please just have something to get excited about. Give us a clue, give us a dream and give us some respect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyJR 0 Posted April 29, 2008 Hope it won''t be like last summer. Being told to be patient and the signings would come and come they did - then leave. I fear more of the same this summer frankly :(. On a postitive note we have the Cricket season to enjoy. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Juler 208 Posted April 29, 2008 We have one of the most accessible boards in the football league. How many other clubs have supporters roadshows attended by their board, or the entire board turning up at a supporters clubs AGM for a Q&A session. At the end of the day, football is a hard business. Unless you are right at the top it’s a mugs game and a lot more money has to go in to what comes out. In the Turner’s we have fans who also have money. I’ve got faith that this money shall be put to good use this summer as we now have a manager in charge who the board trust 100%, I’m not sure you could say the same about Mr Grant this time last season.

[/quote]There are dozens of worse boards than ours. Literally dozens. That is not what I said.What I am whining about is how we are always kept in the dark and how a club which fills its ground every match can plead poverty. I believe I said that I felt we were undervalued. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
