Do they have to provide evidence to you personally? Plenty did it that I know of. I doubt they know how many, as a poster on here said one look round the south family stand and it was full of adults. Maybe they would never have done membership scheme if a fan hadn't have provided them with it. You say they've made enough and should go, maybe they don't think they have. There'll be lots of easy wins for new owners if we ever get them, just don't expect this paradise you appear to demand.
Do you not know that Assam fled the Egyptian dictatorship in fear for his life with a bag full of cash which turned out to be forged and then had to rebuild his life with only the 20 quid that the bank manager gave him.
I know. He built all his millions from a free gift of £20 from a bank manager Surely that bank manager is owed a fair few quid in interest by now? Arf
Why the **** would they need to give me personalised evidence? Just publish the facts. If they feel they need to chastise the fan base at large they should at least show us what a minority have done wrong. I didn't actually say they've made enough. I said that they've made plenty whilst at the same time making their position untenable. Massive difference. I'm not demanding a "paradise" from our new owners. I don't actually want a new owner to come in a throw **** loads of money at average players. What I'd love is if they new owners made a decent fist of fan engagement and made supporting city fun again. Its not hard to do that so your right that lots of easy wins ahead.
The club had absolutely no idea how many people were abusing the concession passes, Ehab just got the raving hump when he found some were. It's a ****e excuse for all that it's caused though, there's just as many now buying cheap passes and sitting in expensive seats. I even know of some who park in the executive car park with scans of other peoples car park passes. Someone will always abuse the system if it's easy enough, the real answer was to challenge those entering with the wrong passes.
I missed one home game last season, yet scanned in with my pass only five times, security my eye! The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
Their position isn't untenable obviously. Make your own fun. It's never been fun. Personally couldn't give a **** about fan engagement. Cheap tickets, yes. Concessions, yes. They won't do cheap beer or fifteen quid for a shirt instead of 40 quid. No owner will. They all abuse the fans goodwill but just use pr which the Allams don't. It is what it is.
Defend the Allams all you like, Chazz. But surely you see the attendances go lower and lower. You go to the games, so you surely you can hear the coach shouting instructions and the same with the players? It's a bit like when you've been to the under 21's, yes? Trouble at Mill...
the stickler for me is the constant lies and untruths spouted by these two .... starting with `they bought the club as a gift to the city`, and have creamed interest off that gift ever since, some may sit back and recite `it is what it is` crap, the vast majority see them for what they are, lying vindictive shyte hawks, who despite their constant spouting of `the fans want us to leave we will leave`, are creaming off millions and have done for the last 2 seasons at least. Dont try telling me they havent had their money back and more, they have had jewels which they have flogged off and have reinvested next to bugger all. This close season will see them rape the club for even more, with little to no investment back. The sooner these despicable 2 take their shadows elsewhere the better.
You think I'm defending them?? Weird. I'm saying how I think they see it. Im saying the same on the transfer thread. People shouting and screaming why aren't we signing anyone, why why why. If the last few years haven't taught you anything... then why. Start screaming on the internet. That isn't the way they work. So why get flustered about it. They need to go, write it in capitals if you want if you're that steaming angry angry angry. But they're going nowhere.
Youre amazing. They obviously haven't had their money back that's why they aren't going. Duh They really must be geniuses if they're taking that much out of the club. But they aren't.
You mention challenging the people entering on the wrong passes however turnstyle staff were told not to challenge due to the large queues of supporters waiting to get into the ground after the electronic computer system they introduced was not fit for purpose and caused a lot of problems to implement When supporters were not challenged this made the problem worse as once people knew they could get away with it more and more did it. Because they had introduced the system they had to make it fit much like the membership system initially there was only a small number abusing the system and it was being challenged and under control
I imagine most people think you are defending the Allams. It is what you do isn't it? Well that and criticise people for not having a solution as to how to get rid of them. If only it was that easy!
Do you have evidence of this, or are you just regurgitating the anecdotal evidence put out by the club?
The last two or three pages could well have been cut and paste jobs from the many times the same comments have been seen on this thread. Ooooh this is going to ****in hurt, but Chazz is correct.
