Title: Is this really the end?
Post by: STFC_Gazzza on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 11:46:39
I am in a state of shock really, ok we knew it could all happen but you cant prepare for it... I am close to tears realy. I feel physically sick.

It does feel like a shock, I agree with you -  Fitton seems like a clued up bloke and I really thought he would save us.

Gutted.

I am thankful for all the mates I have made through going to football, I just don’t know what to say. 3 KINGHTS in shining armour and we couldn’t complete a deal with any of them? Absolutely ridiculous. I’ll miss the weekends meeting up with mates for football. Devastated. I cant honestly see how we can get through this.

Pull yourself together man, close to tears??  Now's the time to fight for the club, not to weep in acceptance of your fate.

I do know where you're coming from Gazzza but come on, it's not over til it's over.

I'm not upset. I dont feel sick

I just have a feeling of inevitability and helplessness, with a touch of violent rage in the background.

Clubs dead and they haven't even got the slightest bit of fucking decency or compassion to make a statement.


Title: Is this really the end?
Post by: sonic youth on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 12:23:12
the statement will probably begin "reports of our demise have been greatly exaggerated"...

i cant understand how the board think the club will survive if this deal doesn't go thru. there has to be a compromise or they get no money and the title regardless of their ignorent attitude towards fans of killing the club. personaly i will believe it when its true and the adver are just stirring it up.

We should wear some orange and have a peaceful protest.

On a serious note, I think the physically sick description probably best matches how I feel. It's like waiting for someone to die - you know it will happen but it still shocks you when it does.

Diamandis has NOTHING to lose (well a £1).  It ain;t just the Adver listen to BBC Wilts or any news source. (except Brunel)

I am shitting it. We just have to hope that we have enough money to see us through, which the Board has said was the case previously.

It isn't over until its over. Never say die and never give up hope

which ever way you look at it we are fucked.

the best that can happen is flogging off our only assets ( Brez / Ifil / Tozer  ) getting a journeyman manager and a relegation dogfight which we'll no doubt lose. Less crowds / less revenue etc -we all know the cycle.

of course the worst and in my opinion almost inevitable outcome is a winding up order and the death of our club - which will be as a result of years of mismanagement like Aldershot / Newport etc before us. This should never have happened - we are not a tin pot club with 2000 gates.

we need answers as to why 3 attempts to save the clubs have all ended in the same outcome and I am ( like everyone else ) sick of all these just about to happen takeovers. It's like watching a loved one in intensive care and thinking the kindest thing is to switch off the machine.

sure i'll protest and as sure as hell nobody will listen , I just think our last hope has passed with Andy Fittons fully understandable pulling out. Cheers Andy - at least you tried.

I know all this is the bleeding obvious and I thought I would feel better recording it , but I don't - just feel sick and weary of it all

Only Sherlock Manatee can save us now!

No seriously. I no I made him up, but wouldn't it be awesome if it turned out he was actually real!

Nah, we're fucked.
