How reassuring but surely the vote should be an online vote if every member not those who attend a specific meeting?

I suppose you'll be advocating an online board next

I did have a Jaguar parked in a very low demographic area

Should have taken the bus.

OK so I'm still on it...

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

You sodded off with barely a by your leave!

I thought everybody had gone home

 

[Nick]

I thought everybody had gone home

Did you go for the toilet and come back and everybody had gone? Bit harsh

He and Grendel went off into the sunset arm in atm

 

[Grendel]

I suppose you'll be advocating an online board next

No I won’t. Of course not but in modern times every organisation has a voting system that’s online - the venue would not accommodate all members so that’s undemocratic in itself - I would agree elected representatives need to attend but all democratic organisations allow all members a voting opportunity or it’s a closed shop

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

He and Grendel went off into the sunset arm in atm

Yes I was going to mug him as he was getting his cash

 

[clint van damme]

Why wasn’t I invited for a pint?

Fuck off

Never drink with your heroes

 

[Grendel]

Never drink with your heroes

Now it makes perfect sense - Tony looked at me as if he’d met God

 

[Sick Boy]

Is there a way of getting on the Trust Board? It’s a serious question - I’ve left work and I have a lot of skills in terms of negotiating - oddly I’m kind of energised now

You’d have my vote!

 

[Grendel]

You’d have my vote!

Need to fly and get to the Albany apparently

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Now it makes perfect sense - Tony looked at me as if he’d met God

No he said oh god it's Grendel

 

[skybluetony176]

It's occurred to me I don't know where any loos are without having to buy a ticket

Yep... good to put a few faces to "names: though! Cheers guys!

You stuck out like a sore thumb. You were half the age of everyone else.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

You stuck out like a sore thumb. You were half the age of everyone else.

Or a third

 

[skybluetony176]

Go to next meeting and put yourself forward I might even vote for you for the comedic value if nothing else

I’ll vote for him too. For comic effect obviously.

 

[Samo]

The problem is it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy - wasps fans will now believe we are the odd mad extremists and all other supporters are of the opinion the council and wasps have nothing to answer for

Really it’s a Saturday afternoon so most people should be able to go

Most wouldn't even know about it. I think it's easy to forget what a little community SBT is and assume it represents the wider support.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

And to rub it in Google Maps asks 'how was Ricoh Arena?'

1*

 

[Grendel]

Most wouldn't even know about it. I think it's easy to forget what a little community SBT is and assume it represents the wider support.

Two other groups were also aware

I was thinking can I reach that far down to shake your hand. Glad you came.

To be fair a lot of people expressed interest to PSB but it's easy to express interest on social media. Different thing to actually turn up though it was short notice in fairness

 

[Nick]

From a hand shake?

 

[Grendel]

From a hand shake?

I think it was he who came

 

[skybluetony176]

I think it was he who came

That’s your fantasy dude not mine.

Good to see you there, that’s all that mattered.

 

[Terry_dactyl]

Fair play everyone that went today. Could be the start of something bigger.

tbh this almost makes it worse. When it was just on here, ten would have been an achievement(!) Last night I allowed myself a spot of optimism, when I read 90-odd had committed elsewhere.

Should have known better!

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Still, it'll be cheap to make the T-Shirts up that say we were there!

 

[oldskyblue58]

Despite the disappointing numbers it was good to put faces to names

 

[Deleted member 5849]

At least there's less for me to forget I suppose

 

[Tommo1993]

Bath won so Wasps didn’t qualify for whatever they didn’t qualify for!

 

[Otis]

Despite the disappointing numbers it was good to put faces to names

So, which one were you, OSB?

 

[Tommo1993]

I kept hearing people saying ‘Who’s Otis, who’s Otis?!’

 

[oldskyblue58]

So, which one were you, OSB?

The tall one

 

[Otis]

The tall one

The Jimmy Hill Statue?

 

[Otis]

I kept hearing people saying ‘Who’s Otis, who’s Otis?!’

Yeah, I kept hearing it too, but decided to ignore it at first.

I get people all have lives and other more important things to deal with, and that notice was maybe a little late, but how come we have such an apathetic fan base?

Is it apathy or fatigue, or both? There have been many well attended protests over the years. Was it 6000 who marched into town, and a similar amount a year later? I was at the Charlton away march in decent numbers. The Rochdale protest was very well attended. We've had pigs x 2, sit-ins, pitch invasions home and away, that really impressive display at Arsenal on TV. I stood on the hill at Northampton, all that stuff, and where has it got us? We've had years and years of it and we get nowhere. I feel a bit guilty about not going today but it's just exhausting. Not an excuse, but I do understand it.
