Just saw a comment that swindon fans are expecting too much with instant success, need to steady the ship and slowly rebuild. Made me think that there may be a point to it, I wonder how it would have gone down though if Clem had said that’s the aim over the next few years. Would it have reduced season ticket sales? Probably. But in 3/4 years time we may have found ourselves to be in a better position than we are now… if you trust Clem and trust everything is above board and every penny is going to the benefit of the club - absolutely. I no longer believe this. I don't have any evidence. I'm not itk. |

Exactly - I don’t agree with Clem at all, my point was IF the board knew what they were doing but it felt like slow but steady progress I think majority of fans would be fine. The issue is over promising on things short-term which we all can sniff out as BS. |

Just a reminder that 'the board' is Clem Morfuni. |

A most pointless chant at the best of times, let alone when aimed at an owner thousands of miles away. Not that I'd advocate it, but it would be better to stage a mass walkout to at least demonstrate a number of fans realize what is actually occurring behind the scenes. About time some of the fanbase flexed their limited muscles to make a stand and possibly try to force a change. |

https://twitter.com/bobbyang73/likesRob Angus liking the Price of Football Podcast featuring Clem... I wonder at what point in the story arc realisation set in? It's a bit galling to see him cocking an eyebrow at the shitshow like this when he was sat at the top table a couple of months ago, and was a prime mover in the takeover and everything that has happened since.

How and why? Why should he not expect to have a higher wage budget than Sutton, Grimsby and Harrogate given the obvious revenue differences? |

Didnt think of that to be honest, good point.
Harrogate i am miffed by.
It was a joke really but there may be some truth in that, however, look at their gates. Other income won’t be much different surely? There must be money coming in from other sources AKA Dale Vince @ FGR via Ecotricity. |

I mean if they are paying London weighted wages are they also receiving London weighted sponsorships? I assume they don’t charge London weighted (season) ticket prices? |
