Bogle?
Dropping down the leagues - Cardiff, Bham, Pompey
On loan to Pompey - so that fits in with MJ's "we might be able to make something happen in the future" cos it's not soemone on a 2/3 year deal perhaps?
It would be a striker I would think
Not Angol IMO - hardly a "fantastic signing"

But hate myself for picking a player who's played for us - not very imaginative!

Quoted from Bigdog


Forever the apologist for shite attendances and performances on the pitch over the past twenty years. Always comparing them to other smaller snapshots in our history when we were at our lowest ebb as justification. What is exclusive to the Fenty years are the lowest ebb of attendances and finishing positions in the football pyramid for the longest sustained period. Fucksake, there were plenty of periods when our attendances and finishing positions were higher too, but it seems to be not the done thing to do to point that out. Where we are is not acceptable, home crowds, positions in the league and the average standard of entertainment. Point out another eighteen year period in our history that matches the Fenty years for home attendances and league finishing positions. Nope there isn't one. The drop in attendances during the Buckley years matched those of pretty much every team in that period and was not exclusive to us as a club, yet many of those teams have recovered to make massive increases since then. Let's all wallow about and justify being mediocre because we were mediocre for the odd season in the past and forget all of the reasons why we've arrived at this sustained mediocrity. Bores the arsse of me this "living on past glories accusation" mentality. So self-defeating..



Who's apologising for low gates or shite performances over the last 20 years? Certainly not me. I'm just showing some statistics that demonstrate we have been down this path before but obviously not for such a long period. I want our club to succeed as much as the next fan but I don't keep banging on about it all being down to JF. As a point of interest JF only became Chairman in 2004 so for your 20 year period of failure the three previous chairmen , Carr, Everitt and Furneaux must surely shoulder some of the blame? If you don't like my differing view to yours on the subject and it " bores the arsse " off you then may I offer you a suggestion and don't read my posts. I  agree you do have a point of view on this subject and respect your ability to express that view. Therefore at least have the common courtesy to respect my view as much as it differs from yours.

Quoted from monkeyboy
Attendances suffer also through cash, the town has a  low earning  population but the club want to charge premium prices. Its ok when the team are doing well and the part timers come out of the woodwork but when the chips are down they are nowhere to be seen.
The problem i find here is People know at the club the price doesn't match the wages in the area, they should know they made a fortune of the back of paying these people a minimum wage.
Im at work today in a fish factory from 4-30am to earn the money for the next home match because what i earn during the week only covers bills, i dont work today and the next game im sat listening to the radio.


That's a very good point.

Not very many then. Unlike my friend who collects England flags.
