Indeed and I would not do anything to belittle that, I apologise if I've caused offence, but the difference between "were going to...." and "was going to..." ???
Is that dyslexia?

| 27 years in 11-18 education makes me suspicious of the disability as I look for signs and "was"/"were" in this context are not signs.
Sorry if you are dyslexic but I had too many teenagers with pushy mums and indolent push-overs of GPs to immediately agree to the definition: many were referred for specialist assessmant and were failed. Sadly 3 pupils were never assessed as their parents were not pushy and they were dyslexic: as found out later.

| I fail to see what not buying a season ticket accomplishes apart from plunges the club further into disarray. If you feel that enough is enough and do not want to buy a season ticket as a result then that is clearly your perogative. However, as a protest it is more destructive than productive. If you want the club to change and attract a top quality coach then reduced revenue is hardly going to do this. In addition, what if the club does make the required changes and we start well? All that you have achieved is to cost yourself money when you return to the fold and start paying on the door.
Surely a more productive way of the fans voicing their protests at the way the club is being mismanaged is to put together a comprehensive list of grievances in the form of petition and present it directly to Mr Wilkinson at the clubs charity walk. This should not be made personal or insulting as this will just get their backs up but should be informative, reasoned and articulate.
Moreover, if people really want to get through to the powers that be then they should flood the clubs email with again, articulate, reasoned and non-abusive emails airing your greivances. Remember, abusive emails will be ignored and deleted. The power of the written word can be vast.

The fatal flaw in your argument, Pete.
Emails are always ignored. Abusive or not.
At least in my experience, and my enquiries via email would have generally provided a little income for the Club as they were mainly enquiries about purchases. They still couldn't be d. We need, I think, fresh faces and ideas at the Club from top to bottom.

| I have never had an email ignored and on one occasion Dave Tarry even phoned me up to discuss at length the points I had made and as a result the club changed it's policy on a couple of points. Perhaps that's down to my families history with the club but it does prove that they are capable of listening. Maybe this post will end up getting me the job of fans spokesperson, I don't know....but I think there are better solutions than people boycotting games and hurting both the club and themselves, although I do understand how they feel and I don't blame them for reacting in this way while the events are new and raw. What all of this shows is how passionate people are about the club. I just think, is there a way we can use that passion in a more productive way.

No denying the passion, Pete.
The Club's problems, generally, are not helped by the Club themselves. All it needs is someone who is a little more savvy and switched-on to do all the little things right. Emails, letters, flyers, promotions, press-release, fan interactions etc etc
As for 9 (Currently) people deciding not to go for season ticketing, I'm sure the Club is very worried at the vast numbers the current upsets have caused the season ticket drive.

It's sometimes difficult to tell someone's mood whilst using the written word, your quote being one of them, but I take it you your saying "9 people are not signing up wow I'm sure the club are bothered about 9 people" in a kind of sarcastic voice am I right ?
I think 9 was the largest vote from the choice on offer in a poll of a cross section of fans "Turkey users", (maybe even worse when you would expect people on here have some passion for the club, not like the other 200,000 plus residents of our city). If I was an employee of the club I would be very worried about it, fans are deeply concerned with whats happening within this club. But my guess is the so called CEO couldn't give two hoots as he's never in fact given one hoot in his god knows how many year dictatorship.
I suppose there line would be there will be no further comment translated to fook off.
Sorry if my irony meter failed, but theres so much comedy surrounding this club it's possible to miss a few of the jokes.

Yeah you're right. On all counts. Nine people is hardly going to scratch the surface with regards to income, but that aside, I agree wholeheartedly with your appraisal. It is a deeply disturbing time for fans of our Club and we crave some positives as nothing seems to have gone our way in a long time.

| 42 votes cast.
Hardly a representative view is it ?
If all the Salford fans were as pessimistic as us lot on here (myself included) then there would be no hope for us.
If those 9 do not want to go anymore then so be it, I guess the directors will be quaking in their boots.

Not sure we can count the 21% who say that the events changed their mind as a winner when 67% say it's not made any difference.

| Although, to be fair, if you take off those already bought and those not going to buy, then 56% of those who were going to buy a season ticket last week won't now be doing so - although 16 is a small sample group.

Alas, I missed out on participating in this ground-breaking poll.
Seriously, do you think that staggeringly sh*t excercise has proved something?
