I've attended plenty over the last year and a bit, so can comment on that period with some confidence. Oh and the freebies I've had from you are hardly freebies as you were happy not to pay a taxi fare when I drove, and were very happy to drink the beer I bought you on those couple of occasions over the last 10 years.'"
The depth to which I will go for a free lift and a couple of pints are not relevant and not something I am proud of.

I've not pulled the wool over anyone's eyes, simply stated the case that applies to me. As we discussed at lunchtime, during the lunch I bought for you, the floating supporters as you seem to have cast me, are the ones that the club should be aiming to attract as they are the ones who really provide the profit rather than the running costs.'"
I thought I was a potential client you were buying lunch for?

You yourself have stated on many an occasion recently that the main reason you are still going is because you enjoy the social occasion with members of your family. I wonder what you will do when they are no longer going on a Friday evening, will you buy a ticket to go watch on your own, or will you too be a floating supporter as I clearly am these days?'"
I'm sure I can find someone to give me a lift and buy me a beer.

Supporters staying away from the club (I'm not staying away btw, I've just got better things to do at the moment given the quality of the product) isn't good news in the long term, but it can act as a wake up call as long as those in positions to do something about the quality of the product, actually do something about the product. As I say, I'm not "staying away" for any particular reason, but I wouldn't preach to those who choose to as I can see their point.'"
Do you have any evidence that supporters are "staying away" due to the quality of the product?
