over the last 3 seasons I have been one of those who have posted saying that sir JM has had his time and selling is foolish, accepting pro JM posters who at times have been so abusive. I welcome the new ownership and like anything in life a new direction has been found. SJM has said he'd wait until ...
I did post some feedback on this article on talk sport but it wasn't published. The gist of my reply/comment on talk sport was that RFC fans don't see our best players being sold to PL clubs as a success, perhaps ii is a necessary evil each season as we have found out but if BM thinks that fans will...
drop most of the first team and play reserves and youths and ask them to play with passion, then get the dropped squad members to purchase tickets to the next home game out of their own pocket and hand them out to the crowd
Many of us feel frustrated and when vent our spleen we get the pro SJM supporters in our face and you should expect the comments that have been made. A number of things could be done alot better but RFC is a selling club and replacements (if any) are bought after sales occur. I can't fathom SJM out ...
Just wondering given wild rumours that Liverpool are looking at a 10 million bid for Kevin Doyle if there was any sell on clause, surely if there was then the money should go back into the team as this would be money not expected therefore not earmarked for the black hole - thoughts????
crossing the Rubicon (an Idiom) is to pass a point of no return (internet definition) in the context that Sir John used it, have we passed the point of no return
Nicky, yes Sir John, Nicky tell Brain he ill need to promote within, we have no money and have to cut our cloth Brian, Sir John said you need to cut the cloth there is no money left Brian says 'what the "&%$!, Nicky you ask him where am i going to get 24 goals this season and plug the black...
Schards2 I agree and there within lies the problem, we have our club and true fans wouldn't oxford off to another club. Southbank merely focussed on one line in my post and decided obviously that I would be todays whipping boy for his frustrations. Nothing I could have said would have merited 'i see...
Southbank - yes two pens were missed, perhaps if Long had taken them they would have gone in......perhaps Let me give you an analogy - you go to your fish and chip shop last year and its really good, you like the food. You go back one day and the batter is soggy, chips are nasty and you ask why. The...
Southbank you can't expect fans to be satisfied with history ie past performances, play off and cup run was last year Barnsley is this year - am I missing something here as we had the competetive edge last season thats why we got to the play off final and a good cup run but some of those players hav...

I don't believe that he doesn't know the current state of the books and whether they are being balanced, he is the chairman for gods sake and he knows. He just didn't like a public show of people rising against him. The issue that he needs to come to grips with is that fans are customers and the mon...
Just remembering as a child when away games were on I used to go to a great number of combination matches at EP, saw a great number of stars such as Charlie George just after he signed for Arsenal, used to love seeing the likes of Chelsea and Spurs and others and waiting to see who was in their team...
DB good post and on the whole decent posts by all - this is what I set out to achieve and demonstrate that constructive discussion is good. Nne of us right always but we do have one thing in common, our support for RFC. Lol about Leicester, I'd hate for us to be in their position and at the moment s...
I remember living through that and as a die hard supporter was so scared we'd go out of business. My mum had worked for Roy Tranter (one of the directors) and the evening post as I recall had the headlines on the front page. My gran was best friends with Alan Sedunary's parents who lived a few doors...
Manny good points raised - we are all sick of where's the money gone......its gone and that is that, I for one don't want this to be about lack of new players, the money issue and I applaud your sentiments. We need humour just as much as constructive debate. I read other fans sites and they don't sl...
