Muddy funster 0 Posted July 11, 2008 Stop and Think.....You ok now? Good.Delia out, merchandising bans, chanting, turning backs on club and players - it''s all utter Sheepshanks! we are no worse off than we ever have been and certainly better than the Chase era. Anyone who says otherwise wasn''t there or can''t remember! Lets pull out the stops and support like only we can. Show the club just how unlike normal Ovine football fans we are and sing and chant the club to the play-offs. It can happen and we will be in the Premiership again. Stop being so negative. If the deals off it''s off, if something happens, great, we are a viable option for investment whilst our support and fan base remains so good! When that stops, our chances stop!O T B C!

If fans want to protest, chant and turn their backs on the board then surely that''s up to them. If people want to support Delia and Co that''s up to them. I never heard of fans turning their backs on players during the Chase era! I was there and remember it like yesterday.Fans will support their team, and I don''t know why you even mention it. It''s the board some fans don''t support, and something that has been happening for a while now. We will be in the Prem, lol ok, prudence will see that we won''t. Lack of ambition will see that we don''t.We are a viable option for investment, but which other rich people in Norfolk will invest? We have a fantastic fanbase, but for how much longer will they put up with the lack of ambition and lack of SQUAD investment, who knows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FramCanary 0 Posted July 11, 2008 Yes Mudly, perhaps we should forget the past 12 years of mediocrity & look to join this changed world of football.To do so, we need to find ourselves a multi-millionaire city fan willing to provide us with a takeover plan involving the promise of a vast transfer budget!.

I see no one is questioning Cullums part in this, firstly using the papers to put him in a good light to the fans! were you present at the negotiations? NO so how do you know if Cullum made a good offer to buy the shares? he stuck to his £20m for transfers bollox so he obviously doesn''t love the club enough to do it properly..............you''re pathetic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syteanric 1 Posted July 11, 2008 yes Football has moved on... so why the hell didnt our board have the Foresight to move with it?!?!?!? clubs of our size dont have succes anymore? West Ham, Pompey, Millwall, Southampton have all been to the FA cup final in recent years.. infact, it wasnt that long ago, Pompey actually won the cup! shock horror!... Although most of us hate them,.. Fulham... how many years have they spnt in the top flight with Al Fayed at the helm? Fulham, Pompey, i''d argue even Boro are all similar sized clubs.. how come they can enjoy premiership football and we cant?jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muddy funster 0 Posted July 11, 2008 You''re missing the point. I appear to be a moron because I am not calling for the heads of the board members. Lest we forget Flam, lest we forget.To compete nowadays we do need a sugar daddy - of course. I simply said that potential sugar daddies are looking at sleeping giants with a tremendous fan base to pick up for less than they''ll be worth once hitting and staying in the premiership. That''s us that is! Or maybe we can cause a huge rift between fans/directors/manager etc by calling each other morons (i apologise for my part) and whining on about our chances of getting loads of cash have been ruined. I want the full story before I start slinging wild accusations around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just think Cullum was taking the piss, he was using the paper to get to us and therefore covering his back if his offer wasn''t excepted..............it looks like he was trying to pick up the club on the cheap and take the piss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are poor in comparison, screaming and protesting at those who have the best interests at heart of the football club isn''t going to pull rabbits out of hats. Yes the Cullum breakdown is a set back but we don''t know the full story and until we do, let''s just get behind the team and hopefully Glen will use the 5 million or so we do have at present with good effect.
