Everyone who is even remotely interested should already be aware that this could be our last match at Belle Vue - anyone who doesnt either doesn't care or is so far detached that they arent bothered. You can't market a match as 'possibly our last one here' who gives a stuff about that? If you are that bothered bout being at the last Belle Vue match than get yourself down on Saturday, then again for the Million pound match if its still not resolved and we are actually in it!'"
No your right. They can't market a match like that. They can't market naff all.
In the real world though they could have made an effort. It would have been an excuse to get more people into he ground, create an home team advantage and have a bit of a celebration. But no that seems like hard work. Let's just slag fans off on Twitter.
I said this after popbottlegate earlier in the season. MC doesn't care about anyone but himself and his ego. The sooner everyone gets that into their heads the better.
Our club is dying a slow painful death. If it goes on much longer it will be beyond repair.

| Smewyou seem to underestimate the level of concern regarding this issue, much like the club. I have absolutely no interest in what M C says on his Twitter account. Like he told the fans you will get the squad you deserve that just about sums it up regarding he will get the club he deserves. For me it boils down to why you you save a club and sink your own money in to it to completely go out of you way to alienate , and possibly alienate the fans and sponsors you ultimately depend on.

I have a lot of sympathy with what you are saying about how MC runs the club - but I do not expect him to do anything that jeopardizes the ground negotiations.
At the end of the day, we can only have the team that the finances support, but everyone who has been in charge at Belle Vue has had issues with how to promote the club and increase the fan base. At the end of the day, the starting point of any successful promotion is to have an entertaining and hopefully a winning team.

Clearly everything to the 'brains trust' who seem to be dominating this thread Smew! I just can't believe the amount of total horse crap being posted on this board by a bunch of anonymous keyboard warriors.
When they are struggling with the concept of a 'deal' taking at least two parties to conclude, and in this case there are at least 6 separate parties involved, then you know you are communicating with a bunch of people who don't actually have the first clue about how these things work.
That said, if you could let me have your contact details, I think I might organise a late night poker session... I reckon TRB, Sandal Cat and I could sweep up and pay ourselves back some of our lost time we have spent on the whole stadiums affair.
I don't think any of them should bother buying a season ticket to be honest... while things are extremely difficult at the club and moral is at an all time low amongst supporters, you lot still don't actually deserve to support or watch WTW,
I am done here, because there appears to a whole load of local villages missing idiots!

| The usual patronising twaddle from TRB and inflatable_armadillo slagging off fans who have spent years supporting the club. The way they go on there will be no need for a ground because if there is a team to support they can pkay in MCs back garden because there will only be the 3 of them left to watch

| Look, everyone is concerned about where we will play next season and beyond. I've supported this Club longer than most on this Board but that does not mean that I care anymore than anyone else - we all care.
The fact of the matter is that negotiations are ongoing as to where we will play and until they are concluded no one, not even Michael Carter knows where we will be playing and consequently nothing can be said. I'm sure the Club will announce something as soon as they know but as of this moment in time they don't so I'm afraid we will just have to wait.
Will tomorrow's game with Halifax be the last at Belle Vue. No one knows, it might be, it might not so if that concerns anyone get yourself down to Belle Vue and be there.
If this is considered patronising then I'm sorry but all I've explained is the facts.

As far as I'm concerned it probably will be!

| Well said Sandal Cat. A straight forward direct message spelling it out for some people on here who just don't get it.
At the moment there is nothing to announce.
When you get some of the pathetic nonsense spouted on here by some people who are frustrated at the lack of news I am beginning to understand why MC loses his rag sometimes.
Let us focus on rugby and let the people behind the scenes put the jigsaw together.

Most of them were in the south stand last night. Well they were until 5 minutes from the end.

That post is way out of order on about half a dozen counts!
