Some of our fans gve it to the players, can't complain when they get some back. For me it's down to the management. Im Probably spoilt because we had such good management in the 80s 90s and every player knew his position and what's expected, if one was injured another would slot in and equally perform.

Sparta - Remind me how that panned out, please.

Yes Pete, our keeper Pullen.

I don't know Spit. Johnson didn't seem to be calming anyone down at all. Not sure what he thought he was going to gain. Harbottle did the right thing pushing Johnson away.

For those of you who work, try telling the bloke who pays your wages to fuck off and see if you still have a job next day. Didn't we have a similar situation some years ago?

Yes sounds like johnson and harbottle did a good job to calm matters

Spit - it looked like Johnson trying to calm fans, followed by Neufville telling fans to f-off.

KD- or they think they won’t be kept on if we get promoted.

Tilley and Neufville are off-contract, no?

For the love of God, you’re joking me. One app to buy a ticket and now I can no longer use the same app to download it and use the ticket?

Spit-ah ok missed the situation but either way not good to have your best players in that situation unless it achieves a backs to the wall mentality

The fact that we’ve only won 5 league games away from home between January and the end of season since 1/1/2021 says a lot. Wigan and Accy in 20/21 season, Notts Cy in 23/24 and Newport (and that was 2nd Jan) and Carlisle this season.

Sounded like players telling fans to f off though carshalton from what changing says

Telling our better players like Neufville and Tilley to fuck off is only going to make them more likely to leave the club in the summer however frustrated anyone may be

Wouldn't mind being overpaid whilst underperforming.

The players should be thankful for the great support they've had in the second half of the season when the team have been playing so long like a team that is fighting against relegation and have already accepted their fate.

From what I've seen fans telling playes how they felt. Johnson telling them we all need to stick together. Neufville.tells them to Fuck Off. Not seen any footage of Tilley but he'e been accused of the same. Harbottle playwd a blinder getting everyone away

You don't become a pro-footballer if you can't pass a ball etc.

What was the furore with Johnson about? Any non-FB/TikTok/Insta footage?

Mind you, not sure what channels the club could take to reach me these days, with no local media worth its salt. Cost to benefit of doing something like a leaflet drop would be horrendous. How does any business reach "curious but passive" people these days?

Partly of course it's me being an old git and my mind failing to apply inflation to perceptions of "value for money" since I was a kid. But then I paid £20 or £21 the other day to watch Sutton v Halifax. Different strokes for different folks: no atmosphere but I didn't have to worry about arranging ahead of time so I was sat by my friends, and I can't imagine the football was £14 worse in quality. For Wimbledon, I think the bit thing is my perception is that it'll be impossible/difficult to get a ticket, which reduces temptation to keep an eye on things. Plus of course there's zero profile for the club in the local community for a "vaguely interested local resident"

TBK - looking forward to hearing about Sean's review as and when.

Sav - I completely agree that the strategy will contain many elements but it still needs to be seen as one project to remove losses and, most importantly, to be regularly monitored on that basis.

Alan IOW, JJ should have had the team in at 7.00am today and made them watch that game through four or five times before sending them home to consider their futures at professional footballers. No point in getting them out on the training ground because they can’t suddenly learn to pass to someone on the same team or to not keep giving possession to the opposition. I’m guessing we don’t practice free kicks and corners after watching our recent attempts, so I think the problem with not having any belief in our ability to win a football match is the one JJ needs to address. Not sure if we didn’t have a game plan yesterday or if the players were unable to implement it. Support was superb yesterday on that unforgiving meccano Monstrosity but the team didn’t respond.

Sav, Sean took the cost review on and is going though everything line-by-line. I wish there were easy answers but it's a highly competitive loss-making industry and we can't change that by ourselves. I'd love to get all the League 2 chairmen in a room and agree to make all new contracts 25% less!
