FAO The Club

[DV]

...ok so I was at a loss to what to call this thread...but...anyway I remember a couple of seasons back when under the guidence of Paul Sturrock we stuck 5 goals without reply against a a awful, lackluster, passionless Gillingham team.

Paul Scally as a gesture of goodwill refunded the travelling fans their ticket money.

I think it would be a fantastic idea if our club did the same. Paying the best part of £20 to watch your team get beat 5-0 is a disgrace naturally, let alone with the financial climate the way it is and thats just the price of the match that doesnt even bring travel into it!

On behalf of the team apologise to us.

Pay your money, takes your choice.

All teams have very good days and very bad days. If we had won 5-0 should fans pay more after the game?

I agree with this actually. We've seen some decent gestures by the board in the time they've been here and one like this wouldn't go amiss. Fitton was at the game today. I'm sure he's just as depressed and pissed off as the other 788 that travelled.

Didn't the gills have something like only 14* supporters that day though.

they can take the money out of the striker kitty if they have to!

i'd like to now why fitton and co bought stfc.i have asked this question from day 1.

To make a profit on the money they have invested? It's called business.

Me too....I want to know why hardly any money from Cox's sale has been put back into the team apart from £100,000 on Cuthbert.

Fitton is tight in my opinion, Always thought that and he is proving me right, Get some more players in asap!

Did he buy STFC because of the new stadium thing? Because he isn't putting much money into the team and that is a big concern.

Did they just want a football club? It's lots of people's dream. They certainly don't seem to have the delusion of quick profit, or indeed any profit.

On today's result, it's a nice cop out to go the "first game doesn't matter" or "the board off the pitch good blah blah blah" or whatever else excuse, but really it was a fucking unqualified disaster and there needs to be some apologies and meaningful gestures.

There's no getting out of losing 5-0 away to one of the lesser teams in the league on your opening day.

Yeah if i'd put 10 million to clear the debt of a company i'd be a bit tight with my money as well.

Apart from buying Cox, McNamee and Cuthbert who have this board paid for, no one - thats who!

How long before Bart puts in an appearance

There are words for people like you.

I couldn't give a toss what you say to be honest, That's my opinion, Like it or lump it, The board need to sort the fucking mess out, get some bloody strikers in and give DW a bit more money, Unless you want another season like last season?

Didn't we pay for those youth players from Plymouth as well?

I do agree there seems to be a problem with Fitton not being willing to pay that little bit extra to get his man.
