1. I wont have to read or hear anything written or said by Bob Holt ever again. 2. At least the people responsble for the demise of the club will be hurt in the pocket 3. Altertantivly, We'll all be richer 4. I can go shopping every saturday. GREAT!!! 5. erm..... 6. Saturday lie ins not disurbed by getting up and going to the pub pre game. is that good or bad? Who am I fooling, Its fucking shit, gay and aids ridden. Why did i decide to Support STFC? Theres so many better choices I could have made Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Luci on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:26:39 Id actually quite like the whole 'starting a new club from scratch' idea IF the current situation is buggered.
No conspiracies, no cheating, no CVA's, no lying boardroom bastards, a club with a community feel. As long as it is NEVER done in the same way as Franchise. Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Phil_S on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:27:25 On a point of order (point 2 actually) one of the main culprits stands to lose the sum of £1.

It's all a bit of a larf really, this football malarky!

Fair point. Someones bound to give him a kicking though Disclaimer : It wont be me and nor do I condone such beahviour, I just think that it is likley to happen Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: fatbury on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:33:12 Quote from: "STFCLady" Id actually quite like the whole 'starting a new club from scratch' idea IF the current situation is buggered.

Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Colin Todd on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:36:25 Honestly i think its a shit idea. If I was bothered about non-league football I'd be watching it already

If I was bothered about non-league football I'd be watching it already Fucking right on Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Arriba on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:41:47 i'll get my weekends back.put on the boots again and be able to get bladdered on a saturday with no long drive on a sunday.
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Colin Todd on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:44:15 I just couldnt bring myself to watch a bunch of players "representing STFC" who were little more than fit sunday league players. How fucking depressing would that be? Jesus christ we've hade some shit players in the past 10 years and they were fucking pros!
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Luci on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:48:25 I dont care of the standard, the bottom line is its my local team. No matter how good/bad.
I couldnt bring myself to support anyone else. Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: flammableBen on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:51:32 I could probably bring myself to go and watch supermarine now and again. The draw of pitch-side drinking is a big one.
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: DMR on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:52:46 In that case I'd watch Devizes Town. For me it’s all about the ground, the away fans, the concourses, getting lashed, proper “invasion” away trips – all the things that go with watching professional football.
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: tans on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 15:53:02 At least I wont have to wear my superstitious spiderman y-fronts every home game.
Ben I agree re the pitch side drinking 8) Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 16:41:16 Quote from: "dave_m_russell" In that case I'd watch Devizes Town.

The away trips are the best. You just don't get that the same with non-league football :(Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: juddie on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 16:43:43 I can't imagine saturdays without it. Whenever there is an international game I feel lost. Might have to play golf, or just watch jeff stelling in the pub and gamble on other games to make it interesting.
WTF are we going to do? Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Luci on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 18:31:56 Not give up and start afresh. Only option.
With the right people running the show we could get a decent fanbase. Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Red81 on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 18:40:13 I will never support supermarine! Never!
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: A Gent Orange on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 18:44:34 I really don't think I can face non league football. I'll probably go to Bath City but only once in a while and more because it's so close to my house.
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: ScillyRed on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 18:58:58 All is not lost - over here in the far far south west we have a league of two - Woolpack Wanderers & Garrison Gunners - I'm sure a bit of variety would be welcome + it's agreat place for a piss up.
I must add after 37 years as a supporter the one common thread has been total shite running the club :( As I cannot get to games I won't have to watch the thread on the matchday page - STFC RIP Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Spud on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:29:10 Seeing as i don't drive i haven't got much choice with regards to going and watching somebody else plus it wouldn't be the same as watching a Club where you don't know anybody.
No disrespect to Supermarine etc but it just isn't for me. Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 20:56:08 Quote from: "STFCLady" Id actually quite like the whole 'starting a new club from scratch' idea IF the current situation is buggered. No conspiracies, no cheating, no CVA's, no lying boardroom bastards, a club with a community feel. As long as it is NEVER done in the same way as Franchise. I agree 100%. Get rid of all the lying cheating dispicable scum and dead wood, wipe the slate clean, bite the bullet and start afresh with a properly run club. A football club is far, far more than what division you happen to be in and having big away grounds to visit. It's a part of you and there's no way I could start following another team. I will continue to support the Club in whatever shape or form it might take in the future. And it WILL carry on in some shape or form. It will NOT die - FACT! Who knows? Supporting Town could actually become enjoyable again. Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 21:10:40 Only if we play our home games in the CGH garden
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: flammableBen on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 21:13:24 Will we have open trials like at AFC Wimbledon? I'd like to have a go at getting in the team. But only if it doesn't put a stop to having a few beers on a Saturday.

Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Bogus Dave on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 21:59:40 was in 442 magazine a few months back too i think
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: tans on Friday, December 7, 2007, 09:23:29 Yes it was Dave.
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: STFCBird on Friday, December 7, 2007, 09:31:50 Seeing as I am moving to Sussex I'll just support Crawley :cry:
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Boeta on Friday, December 7, 2007, 10:51:16 can't see starting a new club working. there aren't any fans, to ym knowledge (which is mostly based on here admittedly) with the vision and the skills to make it work. plenty of people with the passion and prepared to put hard work in, but you need a lot more than that
Title: Positive outcomes of the impending demise of STFC Post by: Melksham Red on Friday, December 7, 2007, 10:55:47 Us out of towners will not give a fuck about AFC Swindon, Supermarine or any other. We fell in love with Swindon Town FC. Personally I don't care about football in Swindon, I care about STFC. Any hybrid will have fuck all support especially from the non Swindonians.
