Quoted from Cloudy
I have similar feelings to ginny in that I just dont care much anymore.

I will be there tonight but have little interest.

The call for the fans to reach out in the search of more unity is admirable but for me, it has been destroyed by JF. I see no chance of feeling any sympathy or admiration for the man who has driven a wedge between me and ( what i still consider) my club!

There is now little chance of reconciliation for me and after 50 years i honestly thing the 'marriage' is over.

I won't be going to watch Scunny or anywhere else. Not looking for sympathy  or an argument, just feel I am at the end which saddens me greatly.


Frankly I don`t see why I should give an inch I had to endure  6 years of watching my beloved team in non league.When we finally escaped that hell I was full of optimism and it was all there for the taking.The powers that be at Club failed to grab the bull by the horns and they have let me and all the other supporters down and they appear to be back where they were prior to relegation last time it stinks.

I honestly think the Directors have no idea that dwindling crowds lead to a percentage of regular supporters, never coming back.
This has happened in my case. After relegation to the Conference, I vowed not to return until we were back in the Football League. I'm still waiting for the enthusiasm to get me to return.

Quoted from ginnywings
I have met Barralad, done some work at his house in fact, and yes he is a top bloke. I'm not criticising him in any way, i just disagree with some of what he said. The Trust have a thankless task and are in danger of becoming stuck in the middle of the war of words currently happening. I did seriously consider becoming more involved with the Trust and volunteering what little skill set i have to them, but i decided it wasn't worth the grief and i now find myself in a position where i don't even want to watch the team, never mind anything else involving GTFC.


I agree with what you are saying Ginny.

A few months back I was going on and on about not getting my lifetime membership card from the Trust,

I just wanted in my wallet as I travel round Suffolk,

Now I am not bothered if they send me it or not.

Very poor Trust

I agree that the Fishy doesn't represent the vast majority of Town fans but that is not to say that the majority aren't drunk off with what they see on the pitch.

You are not the first person to say that nor will you be the last.
