Whilst I agree that it is sad that it has got to this, I think a lot of fans are feeling pretty helpless right now whilst watching the club continuously make mistakes. Not only this, but they try to fob the supporters off with obvious PR spin in the media, which only serves to stir the pot with those of us that can recognise when we're being 'had on'.
Unfortunately, it feels to most of us that to 'play nice' and offer constructive criticism whilst biting our tongues on other issues, simply lets those running the club off the hook. As fans we want to bring change, but we feel helpless because our owners and CEO insulate themselves from the public completely. There simply is no other way for us than to voice our discontent through any channel we can and, for once, I fully endorse it. I, and obviously most of you, can see that this club is just not meeting the standards expected of them. And let's be honest, they benefit immensely from the fans. The level of income we collectively spend to support them, the leverage such a huge and loyal fanbase brings in discussions with sponsors etc. We absolutely have every right to criticise. This club was started and built into what it was by the supporters and the local community. Never forget that this is our club, not theirs, and we are absolutely entitled to get angry when we can see it being run into the ground and sucked dry for all the money they enjoy because of us.
