Tom 13811 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I'm not going - but I've only been a couple of times this season and 6 or 7 times last season, it's been on a constant decline but I really don't want to put my money in. I've been going on free tickets the last couple of years or buying one off a mate etc. After the near relegation of 12/13 and subsequent negligence in the transfer market approaching 13/14, any idea of wanting to go to games on a regular basis evaporated, shit fan etc. So Aye, I got to a couple but now I really don't see the point. It's a pointless club for so many reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34168 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 [emoji38] Was watching it last night. I don't laugh out loud much at films, but that thing has me in bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acrossthepond 699 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I support those who boycott. Those who choose to continue attending for their kids/dads/friends/because it's part of their life and fuck Ashley if he thinks he'll take it from them, I understand their position as well. But the truth is that he is taking it from us, little by little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the truth is that he is taking it from us, little by little. I'm in that group and understand it when there is nothing else to get behind. But when there is a concerted effort happening... It's remarkable to me that people won't support it. I've no qualms with people protecting a 20 year old match streak. But I know a lad who misses games off his st every year for holidays and that making out that it would be sacrilegious to miss this one. Just being obtuse.

To me, with a well organised, well publicised campaign, and a very simple set of instructions for what the protest involves in place, anyone who still attends the match tomorrow categorically deserves the club in its current form. If you're given every opportunity to take a stand and you're still sat in your seat for kick-off, then you've picked your side and your right to complain about it is heavily compromised. I know we're all trying to be nicey nicey and let those who want to go, go, but fuck that and fuck them. Unless you can genuinely say that you didn't know about it, then attending tomorrow puts you on a level with Carver, Beardsley and Moncur. At the very least in terms of stupidity.

Jill 0 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 ST holder, not going. It's been about the day out rather than the match itself for ages so will just have that part and skip the match this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 13811 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 It pretty much sums it up for me so I thought I'd pinch it. Sir Dan Wilson reckons it's one short of calling people scabs like - good. I think he's a clever bloke - but his pro Ashley stance is fucking bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 13811 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Aye I know - I just don't know how anybody can be that stupid. Boycotts are simple - if you don't support them you're opposed to them. Sit on seat = Ashley is good Opt Out = Ashley is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 26606 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Think it's just people putting blinkers on, Tom, covering their ears thinking it's out of their hands. It's a defeatist attitude ultimately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
