It's a poor proposition - in your opinion. I can respect your choice, but wish that you and others would at least give it a chance.
A lot will depend on each clubs own ambitions and, to a degree, how the season starts, but then what's new about that? |

My understanding is that you pay for 14 games and if you're lucky enough to be in the top 4 of the top 8 or the Championship you get a 15th free. |

I have supported this club through thick, thin and desparation. Finishing 12th in the second division was the worst... Fans have been pulled through the torment of justifying our promotion to SL, the frachise applications and the crusaders fiasco. I will support the club in whatever Mickey mouse competition and Fred carno administration that operates the game.
But to ask that I give, yet another nonsesical tangent of management 'a chance'
No no and a thousand times no... It doesn't deserve it, the administrators don't deserve it the game deserves better.
I will continue to decry thus scheme until commonsense and propper management planning prevaiils. |

| Quote ="TRB"That last sentence is completely wrong. If you work hard enough and can generate the audience and the cash you can now progress from whatever base right to the top.
3 homes in thus phase results in 14 overall, and most with something to play for. We only get 13 currently and several of those were pointless last season!'"
And what is to say that several won't be pointless in the new abomination, sorry, structure? Once a team realises that it isn't going to reach the golden 8, which could well be with at least half a dozen games remaining, then there is nothing for them to play for until the farce, sorry, split commences. It makes no difference whether you finish 9th or 12th as the points are wiped. So dead rubbers for some teams will remain and this more competitive game speil will be a fallacy. |

| Quote ="bren2k"I'd rather attend a forum on youth development, with a genuine and meaningful report on how the 1873 money has been used, what it will be used for in future and how it will create a system whereby the best young players from the area will be attracted to, and retained by, WTW; ideally, I'd like to hear from the person overseeing youth development to understand the strategy and vision, and from some of the players and parents involved, to understand the reality of participating.
I've suggested it 3 or 4 times in the past to no avail, so here it is again.'"
On that note the following was on twitter earlier. So are we using the funds for use in the amateur game as well as the club now or does it mean something else i.e. fund raising?

I would imagine that's the Lottery Manager looking to get amateur clubs to flog memberships and paying them a commission - much like they do now with individual sellers. |
