New beginnings - 25% Truth, 80% Bollocks

I agree with the sentiment but I think there would have been an obvious reason why he didn’t go down that route - ££.

plus you can't hide and spin stuff quite as much to

You have 6 years to claim a debt.  You'd need to contact the club and make it clear you hold them responsible for the refund and give them a reasonable time to respond and refund.  Then you can go down the Small Claims route if they decide to hold firm.  I very much doubt there is much by way of precedent to determine the chance of success, but the agreement to NOT take a refund would likely take the form of a new contract.  As a result, you would argue you were placed under duress when agreeing to it, which makes the contract invalid (if the courts agree).  Depends how much effort you want to put in.

Now, if a cluster of people know a good solicitor, you could go down the Class Action route (mass action).

Thanks for that, will request a refund.

If there is a few of you doing this maybe draft up a letter outlining the reasons you're asking for it. Disgust over the comments from Hall about season ticket holders, Clems comments on giving the fans half the ground, the lack of competitive budget vs revenue, etc.

If they get even say 10 letters all saying the same thing demanding money back it might be a bit of a wake up call.

off course they wont theyre cunts

Just for balance- im sure there are some good, honest, hardworking staff who genuinely love the club.

The regime though, are indeed cunts.

I would imagine there are many decent people behind the scenes connected to the club who constantly worry about their job security.

I'm sure the Trust will be asking them to show their working when they use this to bump up prices and eliminate the U21 category

Mmmmm, that rumoured Trust-backed Man City price gouge would suggest otherwise...

I think there is a vast difference between that and whats being spoken about at the moment. Every single club charges a higher rate when playing the very top teams, it made sense we did the same.

If we’re running at annual costs of 8.2m, that’s a 30% increase in costs on the 12M to May-22 (the last accounts)

That’s more than double inflation. Wages will be down. I genuinely struggle to understand what could be accounting for it

It’s that answer which the trusts digging should uncover, not just validating that the number at the end of a quickbooks statement equals £8.2m.

I assume a big chunk of the increased spend was paying and ultimately paying off Jody Morris.
Kinda feels like Clem thought he’d hit the jackpot when Morris applied and pushed the boat out to get him here. It probably wasn’t even a job Morris ever wanted - just wanted to be linked and get his name about. Possibly tried to price himself out of it and Clem went ok.

What odds the fans forum in January actually happens?

What odds the fans forum in January actually happens?

Imagine if fans had been there for Clem’s swear-fest or the Hall of Shame appearance?

They should count their lucky stars that Vic treated them so well.

Throw Clem and Hall together with fans, and a similar level of performance, and it will be carnage.

Fans forums are usually tepid affairs where such controversial subjects as whether or not we can have Pepsi products as well as Coke products are discussed.
