85 signatures now Bumpy. Is it going as well as you'd hoped?

I didn't do it for anyone other than myself, as I said in the opening post, sign it/don't sign it, it's seriously no skin off my nose one way or the other.
I just happened to be up in the wee small hours and needed a diversion for 10 minutes or so, 2 signatures was a success in my eyes

(about the same level it would seem apparent some are happy with our clubs performances



)
Has Pearson read it, I don't actually care about that either, the contempt he's shown toward not only the club but to the fans it wouldn't surprise me in the least if he hadn't, even if he had I hardly think it would bother him if it was 85, 850 or 8,500 signatories.

It's my small way of making my feelings known because I'm not happy, have you got off your arris and done anything or are you another with nothing better to do than infest fora with your inane drivel or even worse you just don't care that our club is going down quicker than a lead balloon?

Aye that's half your fans at halftime apparently. He's got his opinion you've got yours.

Out of interest, and you've mentioned this a few times now, who are the people who are 'happy with our clubs performances'?

Won't be signing the petition as I don't think that will have any effect, but I do want Radford to go and fair play for trying something, even if I don't agree with the method.

What does surprise me is the amount of flack from some, in particular picking out spelling and grammar mistakes. Seems a little sad to me.

You don't have to agree with the petition, and entitled to openly say so, but any more than that just sounds bitter.

You often find the people that spend all day criticising and picking holes in others are actually the ones that shout the loudest but never do anything about it. The guy who rallies the troops in to battle, then hides at the back.

Happy for anyone to pick holes in my grammar, might help me sleep better.

If you are going to the trouble of starting an online petition you should at least try to use good English, just as you would if applying for a job, for example.

Exactly. It's a public statement which is aimed at garnering support and ultimately making a difference. I don't disagree with the methodology, petitions can make a difference, but how can anyone expect this one to be taken seriously when the statement is so badly written? Not just the grammar or punctuation, but the rhetoric, the tone, the points that are badly made.

The poster who made it has been writing the same level of claptrap on here for months and rarely has anyone agreeing with him.

I wish someone would have started a petition like this when I was younger about our milkman, he was a terrible time keeper, didn't used to get my breakfast till teatime some days! Pfffttt
Signed it anyway just incase AP does pop on this forum.

Bol lux!

Some of the greatest people in history have been poorly educated (not that im saying Knockers is of course). To criticize the whole thing on the basis of a few spelling mistakes says more about the pathetic nature of some posters than the OP. Do you pick up the club program or fanzine and start checking it for spellings so you say how bad they are too?

I never said that he was poorly educated either, just that his rant on the petition is poorly constructed. Why should people take it seriously when he couldn't be bothered to?

Anyway isn't it time you said you were finished with the club. Again.
