I actually agree.I think a toxic atmosphere is counter productive , and actually has the opposite effect fans would like it too
Oh don’t get me wrong, this will be after I’ve witnessed a consistent run of poor performances and results
I don’t think the toxic atmosphere will be too far away
if we don’t win tomorrow we’re pretty doomed I think
guarenteed loss at Norwich on Saturday I think
SISU have always been willing to sell up. As long as their price was met. But no-one has been willing to meet it. Which suggests they're over-valuing it.Agree with a lot of the above but new contracts for Hamer and Ohare was the right move. Without them both would’ve been going into final year this summer and offers would’ve reflected that. with his injury we’d be offloading ohare for £1m in Jan if we hadn’t or losing him for a free. At least we have a chance of getting decent value for them still…if they get/stay on the pitch (now we have one !)
The bigger issue is we’ve got waghorn, walker and Kane on big contracts and none are in Robins plans. That’s management/recruitments fault ultimately
I still think SISU are willing to sell up. If the club wasn’t for sale, Im sure Jordan would’ve said so recently. This
is the top of their cycle unless we fluked promotion or a couple of amazing kids came through the system that brought in big money. Both unlikely to be worth the gamble. Someone needs to put a decent offer in, which is unlikely to happen until Wasps/stadium position is clear. Until then we’re stuck with them so may as well focus on supporting the team
If we don’t get a result tomorrow it’s going to be tough playing catch upDoomed?
I actually agree.
Which means this is our forum to discuss it any any attempt to shut it down is cowardly.
We made money on big returns on transfers. When Boddy said we haven’t sold anyone in the championship he fails to mention we had over £1 m on the Wilson sale
Yeah I'll always get behind Hyam, Godden and the lads.I never get on players backs at games and always try and get behind them. I think most on here are the same when at the match.
There isn't going to be a new stadium, it was always BS to put pressure on CCC and ACL / Higgs etc. But CCC pulled the rug from under Sisu with the sale to Wasps.How many years have they had to make progress on a stadium of our own though?
That fantasy isn't happening.
We know the strategy is to try and wait Wasps out but what if they get another bailout. We just have to sit and wait for another 5 years for something?
Fucking joke of a strategy.
I don't think there will be much of that, or it will soon peter out. Outside of the cross-eyed types on SM and on here, I don't sense there is much appetite to go down that road again.
I fully understand the supporting of the teamI never get on players backs at games and always try and get behind them. I think most on here are the same when at the match.
People on here are floofs theses who will attack the club no matter what happens
Bit dramatic tbh
A few bad results, maybe another sale in the window and i think it will be pretty prominent within weeks. Hopefully none of it comes to pass as i really dont want a return to that type of atmosphere ever again. As Evo says above, it won't change the minds of our owners and it will just demoralise the team and wider fanbase.
I fully understand the supporting of the team
but if you’re paying 350 for a poor product
fans have a right to complain- more with the owners than the boys on the pitch
I don’t think we’ll sell again as if they’ve released this statement and then have plans on selling further I think it’s pretty silly timingA few bad results, maybe another sale in the window and i think it will be pretty prominent within weeks.

So we just accept it do we?Scarred mindset. Pathetic some of the comments on here. Bunch of losers.
Yeah, fully understand that arguement mate, but can’t use that as justification for poor consistent performances in our 3rd season in the championshipOut of interest did you have a season ticket in league 2??
Lol right to complain.
wasps own the Arena what good has it done them has it made them a richer club.Because we don't own the Arena, we pay rent and have very limited access to revenue streams.
I'm not sure what our break even figure is concerning attendances, but clearly we arnt reaching it.
I'm sure Sisu would snatch the hand off anyone who is prepared to buy the club off them, but I doubt anyone would pay much for a business that's making a loss every year and needs constantly bailing out.
Ha, funny, I thought you were serious for a minute.
There was a bit of the "fuck everyone" song at Hull but that could have been pitch related as much as anything else i suppose. Ill be absolutely gutted if we end up back in a toxic shitpit again, my little boy has his first ST this season and loves going....feels far too early to be explaining a relegation battle and a generally angry match experience to him!I agree, I was referring more to tomorrow night. Like you say, we're still bottom in 6 games time and it'll start to turn toxic, if not before then.
They were never going to succeed here.wasps own the Arena what good has it done them has it made them a richer club.
We need a win so bloody badlyThere was a bit of the "fuck everyone" song at Hull but that could have been pitch related as much as anything else i suppose.

Fingers crossed we can start avoiding it with a rare win over Preston tomorrow, id love to beat the shithousing bastards.
I hope you're right but the massive cynic in me thinks that statement was about setting the scene for a big sale to cover the increased running costsI don’t think we’ll sell again as if they’ve released this statement and then have plans on selling further I think it’s pretty silly timing
if you were going to sell further you’d compose this statement when window shuts
Bloody hell I didn’t think of it like thatI hope you're right but the massive cynic in me thinks that statement was about setting the scene for a big sale to cover the increased running costs
Fingers crossed im just being overly negative!
Where will those clubs be in 8 years - where will we be?

Do you have anything to back up your apocalyptic nonsense that isn't other weird people being weird on twitter and facebook?So we just accept it do we?
Agree but we don’t have the funds to improve in the goal keeping departmentDo you have anything to back up your apocalyptic nonsense that isn't other weird people being weird on twitter and facebook?
In the real world losing Hyam isn't ideal but apart from a few mistakes from our normally good keeper we would likely have won 2 out of 3 and maybe all 3.
Exactly this. Couldn't have put it better myself.Stability? We've had one season back in Cov, had 3 league games postponed and 1 Cup game moved to Burton this season.
I'm not saying that's all on the owners but it's hardly stability no matter who's at fault.
And I've not seen anyone advocating spending silly money but it was clear once winter came last season that our squad was painfully thin and they didn't do enough to support Robins, even with loans.
They've given up trying to even progress us incrementally.
It wouldn’t wash anyway regardless of the tripe they’ve discussed in that statementHmm. Plenty of factors outlined in the statement that would warrant the club needing to sell and as such it offers them a platform to present their case on why a further sale was necessary if one materialises over the next couple of days.
But that's just the sceptic in me talking.
If.Do you have anything to back up your apocalyptic nonsense that isn't other weird people being weird on twitter and facebook?

100%If.
If we had won all the matches we should have last season we would be in the Prem, but we didnt.
What sort of question is that?
If you'd asked that question 8 years ago, when we were at Northampton, would have have said in 8 years time we'd be higher than all those clubs in the league pyramid with SISU still in charge? Of course not.
well it’s a pretty specific question. Slightly important as well
No, we are stuck with a good keeper who is out of form and a not bad back up.Agree but we don’t have the funds to improve in the goal keeping department
so we’re stuck with 2 poor goalkeepers
He’s average at bestNo, we are stuck with a good keeper who is out of form and a not bad back up.
