Quoted from grimsby pete
I attended most home games between the age of 9 and 39 so that would be

Say 20 games for 30 years  = 600

PLUS  about 25 games between the age of 7 and 8,

Plus   another 125 ish in the last 32 years while living in Suffolk,

That makes a total of 750 homes games and  while living down here nomally spend £30 to £40  in the club shop

So I have paid loads of money into club over the years .

BUT

I do not want my money back  

IT would be intresting to know how many games a certain non chairman has attended games free over the years and the said sum should be deducted off his loans.

just out of interest, why on earth would Fenty want to spend time in Belarus? is he studying 'how to be a leader like Alexander Lukashenko' coz i can see certain similarities in leadership styles and abilities!?


Mile upon mile of flat open space - tick
Under-achieving economy - tick
Used to vote for any party apparatchik with a red rosette - tick
Next door to biggest and most boastful part of the old Union - tick
Pripet Marshes : East & West Marshes - tick
Used to be run by the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth: full of Poles and Lithuanians - tick
Nobugger knows where it is - tick

Does anyone want to buy a "Minsk is not in Russia' tee-shirt?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Think this post has run its course.
Can't somebody just close it?


What's all this about a "takeover".....thoughts !!!


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

With regard to the exiles what it really needs is a 21st century version of the old supporters club from the 60s and 70s. Exiles pay an annual fee and get some rewards in return for being members and supporting the club. Problems would be to avoid overlapping with the trust and what sort of rewards could be offered

Rewards is an emotive word - not looking for discounts or freebies. Happy to subscribe to any scheme that genuinely moves the club forward. This could include any positive initiative to buy out the existing board.


Even though you are away, you still have black and white coursing through you, and you want to feel included and valued as a supporter, and have open and positive management and communication from the club.

If there's no rewards or discounts and people don't want that, then just join the trust and contribute that way

As regards rewards, some sort of points system that counts towards Cup and away match tickets would be good.  The more games at BP, the more you spend in the club shop and the on-line store, the higher priority you are for tickets.
