There used to be a group of lads who hired boxes at Highfield Road. They were thieves and credit card fraudsters who used to follow Cov and Cov boxers all around the country. Often staying in the same hotel as the player's. Wherever they went there was a spike in crime.

The people in charge of the club back then, rightly fucked them off - regardless of the money they could spend.

so all you have to do to be an "ITK" is just preten you are in the know?

it doesn't matter if what you post is correct? GIMOC has a terrible record

Who ever is leaking such information to GIMOC etc appears no longer to have the clubs best interests at heart, which is the saddest part.

The club needed shaking up. We all knew it.

king maybe doing it well or badly but leaking info to the fans serves to undermine the unity we had last season.

Snippets about transfers are exciting, I love them, even though history shows that very few are accurate.

snippets about Poundland millionaires complaining about corporate box prices or disgruntled staff complaining about a new owner having a different view are just self serving and do not help the club in anyway.

King may or may not be an arse but he’s the only arse that got rid of SISU. Overson and Dawkins etc might be great guys but they didn’t get rid of SISU or even close to it. For that reason alone King deserves the opportunity to prove whether his way will work or not.
What’s the motivation

At least it is fact.

I know who they were and also was mates with the Player they got onside..which is why the club got rid of him.

So why slag off others in the boxes? Makes you look silly. if you been there countless times then you’ll know that 25k is not worth it.

as for flooding back? Who said that? Most are saying no and few contemplating it.
The experience isn’t worth 25k a season no, but I also happen to think that they have been massively undercharged for the experience for the past few seasons as well

I never claimed anyone to be flooding back - All I said was after the uproar when the prices were announced if King has come ‘crawling back’ as you put it they should say no

there goes your argument in one sentence. As for crawling back. Majority are in agreement not too. if you think alienating fans is a good look after being told not to up prices so much then so be it

or they are worried that word is coming out about the the shit going on behind the scenes.
What you can't do is draw your conclusion from the act of them asking for it to be taken down, that act doesn't prove the fire.

If they're now negotiating lower prices with previous holders they'll alienate the ones who have paid full price -that's suicide.
That's how pretty much every sports venue operates corporate hospitality. It was insanely expensive for Edgbaston for the Ashes then a week before the test they were practically giving them away for day 4

what is your problem? you can believe or not believe what you want. but if your happy that players and manager alike are unhappy with how situations are being dealt with then so be it. funny how the club have requested Phil to take down his post. must have hit a nerve
Wow really???

pretty much what most are doing on here. wanting not to believe what’s going on and drawing their own conclusions because king is the messiah.as I’ve said before, time will tell. If king is here next season I’ll be surprised

I’ve heard much the same
What is it that happened that you said was “daft”?

I expect there’s some truth to what GIMOC is saying as a few people have made similar comments the problem is without specific it’s a bit meaningless.

It’s obvious a couple of people are a bit peeved off and spreading gossip but change always upsets a few people but it’s usually people who are set in their ways and once gossip starts to spread it becomes a game of telephone and is taken out of context and extra drama added.

So although people might be repeating what they’ve been told it may well amount to nothing.

It’s schoolboy stuff with someone coming in and wanting to ensure everyone knows who’s boss. Immature and I would hope still easily resolved but I’m not sure he has it in him

It sounds to me ,someone who isnt in the know , that certain people have had a lot of privileges over recent years . Now you've got a successful businessman that is trying to bring a professional ethos to the club and certain people are using the " do you know who I am " threat
And not being happy with Kings reply
