Quoted from moosey_club
I truly hope no one is actually going to this game Tuesday.

It has been a while since the whole saga blew up so i just hope that people dont forget that this really could be the start of the Premier League infiltrating the lower leagues with feeder clubs, b teams and the like....not forgetting our own clubs sorry involvement in the yes to accept this sneaky proposal and our own clubs non internal consultation before voting in favour.

Kill the idea by not supporting it. Boycott all the games.  

Football belongs to the people, not the accountants.



Frankly I think it is very sad that people are trying to influence others not to attend a fixture.

Fair enough if you don't agree with it, then you are at liberty to stay away and make up your own mind. But it isn't attractive to see people trying to organise a boycott. Perhaps supporters should actually respect their fellow supporters and understand that they can think for themselves.

I disagree. I see it as educating those who are not aware of the potential damage

I hope people think for themselves too.
I hope they do not get taken in by the propaganda and eyewash about this excuse for a competition.
I hope that the gates are in single figures to show the presumptuous and patronising tw@ts in charge of it that money does not always dictate what's best for the game.

Of course I should hate to think I might influence anyone.

Not attending any of the games because of the League 3 proposals as well as the way the club went about supporting this. The whole thing has turned out to be a complete waste of time with nearly all the top clubs rejecting entry too. I'm still not fully convinced this would be the thin end of the wedge, I think any messing about with the league structure could cause too much of an uproar but they need the message loud and clear and the only way for fans to do that is to vote with their feet.

Still hope we win tonight though obviously, we could do with starting to build a bit of momentum now after the losses at the start of the season. I just won't be there while we try.

I think it's perfectly fine to express an opinion on any relevant subject on what is a football fans' forum. My opinion is that this re-organisation of this competition stinks - if my opinion influences your opinion that's up to you not me.

Ginny, What a load of bollox. Clear noises my bottom.


Ok! Thanks for your input.

If you think what i said is bollox, then fine, it's a discussion board with differing opinions.
