Can't argue with that, Bullseye.

Sick to the back teeth with it mate. I've done my bit and I'll continue to do my bit but the rest of it I have no control over nor do I have a clue who, what, why and when so I've given up caring about it.
I'll continue to turn up, buy programmes, merchandise, drinks raffle tickets etc. and I'll sponsor the fine people doing these great fundraising activities but the board and shareholders well it's deteriorating into farce.
I've no doubt that's probably unfair because a lot of people are probably working their b******* off.

It would be nice!!
Not that I'm overly bothered about who is running the club in general, I mean it's not as though I/we have any influence over it anyway. To be honest, I'm far more bothered about [ihaving[/i a club for someone to run, whether they deign to tell us about it or not.

Its the "please give us £500k" that makes people want a say, or at least to be kept informed.

Aye, and fair enough too after stumping up that cash.
Knowing the shareholding though, it'll never happen.

| Its ok wanting a say. But if you give money to the club. NSA then they have no compulsion to do diddly. In the end if the club goes into admin anyway 500k. Just bought a month. The same thing looks like happening regardless.

| and yet and yet....life just seems to be carrying on; confirming kick offs for games in June, summer 'touch league' to run throughout the summer. Why does everything seem so normal?
Is it only because I [iwant it[/i to be normal that it seems so? Or are there really feet paddling like hell under the water, and something being lined up? Even the EGM is going to be right at the end of May (yeah, I know, the logistics, legal timetables and the rest) surely that is too late unless [isomething[/i is already in place (put there by whom, I don't know) but ready to rock and roll?
We just seem to be in that 'phoney war' period where war has been declared but the bombs have yet to drop.

The bombs may not have dropped yet, but the special forces have been in action behind the lines for a while now...

I much prefer war analogies to car analogies. I hate car analogies.

I haven't got mine yet, though this is really only because I'm not sure if the wife is going or not, added to the fact that I doubt there will be a shortage..
