    Deadwood was shipped.

    RVP spent the rest of his career at Arsenal.

    And we won stuff?
    absolutely no way.

    You peasants

    I'd pay triple if I knew we were going to win stuff. Winning stuff is the bestest thing ever. But maybe that's just because I'm a better fan than all of you.

    (So AKB, you usually try to make a 'told you so' point sarcastically with silly reasoning and logic. What's the point of this thread?)

    Genuinely curious.

    Would have thought that if given the option, fans would have jumped at the chance to change shit whilst still retaining the moral high ground instead of relying on dodgy billionaires or the Mike Ashleys of the world.

    we'd be heavily reliant on sky, so what's the difference?

    I'd gladly sell Letters' house to pay for just one game with Ian Holloway in charge.

    With all these corporate companies reaping the benefits, it's pretty outrageous to ask the fans to pay through the nose for this shit.

    Oh, I see.

    When it is made clear to us that the best is being done with the income that is being generated at the moment, then we can think about generating more money through self-sufficient means. Until then, as long as so many players who never play or shouldn't play are kept on the payroll, as long as there exist such obvious tactical failings and as long as it is made clear that there is attention being placed on the number 1 problem at the club (why we're always topping the injury list), I see no reason why the fans should be responsible to 'change shit', as you put it.

    I would gladly say yes if

    1) I was convinced the money I was paying was going into making the club (started writing company. . .can see how bad it is) competitive

    2) Finacially I could afford it. . .Im not a begger but what would be the sense in financially crippling myself for
    the benefit of some fat cat to be able to buy one of their spoilt brats a pony for Christmas!

    I know the question was in return for success but its almost the same way as Citeh and Chelsea gi about business. . .buying success! But this time its the fans footing the bill rather than the owners. . .what I want and what you guys back home sound like are already paying enough for already is;

    1) a coach who can coach
    2) players who can play
    3) and a club from top to bottom (including the fans) who gives a shit

    Too expensive too ask?

    Absolutely not, its already a complete rip off. If anything like that happened i would just get a season ticket at Leeds or Huddersfield. Far cheaper, more passion., closer, better atmosphere, far less predictable, better food, better banter and so on.
