Did sisu really think they'd be forgiven?? (2 Viewers)

The Lurker · Sep 15, 2014

Why are fans so surprised about the attendance Saturday? Many still don't trust sisu and won't go while there here especially on a regular basis. The ticket fiasco has been an factor. My season ticket still hasn't arrived and I queued for 2 hours Saturday for my paper copy. If I knew it would be such a ballache I wouldn't have bothered especially when I get an email of a friend saying there advertising season tickets on the website today. Thought they'd get current season tickets holders sorted first before offering more out.

Rant over

Given the attendance is the same as the last time we were at the Ricoh its clear they have been forgiven.

I've bought season tickets since we returned, but they have certainly not been forgiven by me - I think of it more that they're on parole.

You really believe that??? Given the 27,000 a week before. Im 99% sure if we had new owners in line with a return to the ricoh i'm sure the attendance Saturday would have been bigger.

Dork? lol... hardman act giving large one over the net. I purchased my season ticket 3 weeks ago and still haven't received it. Surely sort everyone out first before offering more out. Not hard to grasp is it?

hill83 · Sep 15, 2014

While we are at it. I just ordered a new TV off amazon and they are still advertising them on the website. I'm outraged.

harvey098 · Sep 15, 2014

Our highest league attendance was 15,000 that year. Gillingham aside, I think we'll beat that a few times this year if we can stay around the play-off zone

Have you waited 3 weeks for it? Did you queue up 2 hours to get a replacement? Thought not

Some people just can't get on with supporting the team can you. It's boring now mate, we're back and have a reasonable level of attendance. Get over it.

Think of it like this. You've just decided to get a season ticket today. You trek to the store and queue for 45 minutes only to be told "Sorry, we aren't selling any season tickets at the moment, we are waiting until the lurker gets his in the post first."

Pretty sure you'd be composing another rant over on here.

If you purchased your season ticket three weeks ago why were you moaning the other week about not being able to get a gillingham ticket

Aah I get your logic - you think people are still NOPM dont you? I must say that is extremely principled - to keep the protest even when we are back at the Ricoh. Orton would be so proud of you.

PS - it was a great win Saturday and I got a lovely view of the 2nd goal because NO ONE was in the North Stand.

If you re-read through my posts then you would see I wasn't moaning about my situation but a mates. I just find it amusing how sisu and posters are on here are bemused at why the attendance is/was so low Saturday. I had a great view of the goals too btw andreas

No. Perhaps it's just delusion on the fans' part to believe the club are any bigger than their current league position.

So everybody forgave them the week before then didn't again. Yep.

mds · Sep 15, 2014

A good season, maybe promotion would make forgetting easier, forgiven definitly not.

They need to work seriously hard to regain some faith/trust in themselves, lots and lots of goodwill, honest moves for the benefit of the team and the support not the bank balance!

Astute · Sep 15, 2014

It should now be all about the football and supporting our football club.

You don't have to forgive them to go to games. They will get everything sorted as they want our money.
