Quote: Makingplans4nigel v2 "At least we've been put out of misery today. If only we had 5,000 Halifax Johns, I admire your positivity John but for me and others it's going to take a bit more to believe that we can turn this around and stop becoming a laughing stock.
Contrary to what Michael Steele says, this turnaround has to be led by the BOD (Abbot & Croad primarily) and not a case of veiled threats to supporters (because we've heard it all before). I don't envy them. They have a huge task; a new coach, contracts for 2015, new players, releasing players, commercial activity, coming up with a decent home kit (for a change).......and very little income for the next few months.
This winter however, presents the BOD with an ideal opportunity to start afresh and clear the decks ready for when the new man arrives. There's no hidden agenda here, let me make that clear but the guys.......a gal who have been behind the scenes for donkeys years should be thanked for all their efforts, given honarary membership of the club and asked to take their place in the East Stand on matchday. The new man needs to hire his own team. Also Are there people at the club who have been there too long? Do certain people off the pitch need to up their game?
I need to be convinced that the Club is ready to be taken seriously and standards massively improve. For me the club is in the last chance saloon, the people of the town have fallen out of love with what used to be a fabulous institution. Start paying your supporters and the stay aways some attention before it's too late.....remember we're on your side.'"
5000 supporters who go poncing around sightseeing down't south when Fax are playing a game to try and get to the GF
