The hypocrisy

No need for the personal insults on either side methinks .
We do all support the same club. A civil war won't help anyone.
Anyway, as Regards dropping attendances I also think people are fed up with the game generally.
The new format has been a damp squib (every minute most certainly hasn't mattered), the refereeing standards are pretty poor, the judiciary is biased against the smaller clubs and the standard of rugby seems to be declining.
Add in the general dissatisfaction with our own club and it equals ambivalence and disinterest.
The only way to turn all this around is by getting the product right on the pitch. The rest will follow.

I can only speak for myself but to feel bullied I think you'd have to feel intimidated. What by, fairytales about 40 year credit ratings and references to Rovers buses? Jesus wept

Look, I think there are two polarised viewpoints here. Group 1 believe, based on sustained losses, credit rating deteriorating markedly to significant risk over the last 12 months (incidentally materially worse than other top 8 clubs that don't control their own ground) and reducing attendances that passholders failing to renew will present a significant threat to the club's ability to hold its own. Group 2 think comments to this effect by Group 1 (and I include our owner in Group 1 ) are fabricated baseless threats and that the club can sustain itself even with major reductions in its active fanbase. Surely both groups agree that there's some correlation between resources available to a club, whether through a benefactor, ground ownership and/or large fanbase? In my opinion therefore the more people that renew, the better our chances of success. It's as simple as that. Of the three factors mentioned that seem important drivers of success, we don't have the first two. Our competitive advantage in the third is diminished. Why wouldn't we advocate trying to leverage it?

They're trousering loads of income from the council-bankrolled North Stand and boxing events courtesy of a peppercorn rent. Do keep up. Beating Sheffield and Halifax. BOOM!

I don't know how much our income is reduced. I'm dealing in facts, like our credit rating being knackered.

And you ridicule others for spin.

I know, I read it. Funding all their squad upgrades pre 2016. Why would your card be declined? You're putting money in, that will help. Good lad.
It's a financial healthcheck, independently scored on lots of factors including stuff like trading performance and paying suppliers. 0 out of 100 = administration, for reference. I hope we get shirts in, although will be fuming if I have to pay for mine with all the free PR and advocacy I'm doing.

Can't be too greedy.

Stalker alert!

We know our friends recently scored 0 out of 50!!

I'll get my coat

Maybe they should get a room 3d's obviously obsessed.

Very good post although it seems to have been lost among the infighting on here.

Agree with most of that but for me the stadium is also affecting my lack of enjoyment. Not so much the atmosphere. Just the way it doesn't feel like`home`anymore. Tiggers stuff everywhere and barely a mention of us.
