Mid Sussex Royal Yes - as Selles said these people are fans for life.


Most of them were thirteen at the most


If that were indeed the case, which it wasn't, then it'd be fair to say they have the most to lose. After all, they've got many more years of 'hopefully' supporting RFC ahead of them than your or I.

Ah..your right thinking of the Venkys


Who own Blackburn, and have never owned Blackpool.
haven’t Blackburn got over the ‘Venky’ thing since?

Still on their pitchside hoardings, still ran by them a long time since their manager being shouted out.


Yeah they are still there. The brothers back tracked a lot and seem to be getting it right. They had some big protests there.

NathStPaul
St Pauli
Lower West What's it actually achieved ?

Dai is the legal owner of the club. Mob rule isn't going to over rule the status quo. No oe is going to invest in any football c;lub with that concern in the backs of their minds. Sense of self entitlement is overpowering. Clubs rise and fall. That's the nature of sport in general.


F/ck off lower west.

Take your Daily Telegraph interpretation of history with you…

His name suggests he is a West Stand mong who takes his own sandwiches to games along with a tartan patterned blanket to pit over his legs.

Play nice kids, we're all entitled to our views and we're all fans of the same club who want the same end result.

What I don't understand is why he doesn't accept an appropriate offer now, which will include him as the primary secured creditor and run with that. Liquidation will mean he loses everything.

As the main creditor, he'd be first in line when the assets get sold off.

Whether he'd get more liquidating than a potential buyer would offer is a different matter.

If he kept us limping along on the bare minimum he'd get his £1 million rental fee every year, but it'd take a good few years for that to add up to significant sum.




The 'Club' is worth effectively nothing in comparison (especially right now). The Stadium is only relevant if it could generate income. Would it? Who would want it/want to use it regularly? £1M rental fee or whatever is a pie in the sky figure therefore. He could be done with it all and sell it back to the Thais who own the vicinity. What then, demolition? Nice new, shiny rail station on the doorstep. Prime, sort after real estate opportunity?........

Whilr RFC exists, the stadium is protected as a Community asset, and the community has the right to block any sale for a period and try to buy it themselves.

No football club, what's the point. Personally I don't see the land being worth much for redevelopment. Dai might think he'll get more liquidating and selling of the Madejski and Bearwood for development than as a L1/2 club.

We know he's a oxf*rd.

No highlights of the chances....nothing.
Didn't even show the tennis balls or pitch invasion hardly. Just a quick mention.

You don't think anyone will buy a club that has a set of fans who are passionate and committed? I'd have thought the right person would be more than happy to have that kind of support.


Fans who will turn on them, the operational management, the team manager, the director of football when times get tough. Drift away as the club falls down the league standings. As they'd prefer to spend their hard earned money on other things.

Precisely why protests are meaningless. Playground antics. Don't get my way I'll spit my dummy out and call other people names. Pathetic.

Hopefully those that have incurred the club a fine (and possibly additional costs if the fixture is rescheduled) will put their hands in their pockets. Or the club wil be looking to shave more headcount off the payroll to recoup the lost money.

Not sure how orchestrated it was but it was genius that the first few that went on came from the north east corner. I was watching club 1871 to see if they were going to come from there. Don’t think anyone expected the first few to come from that side of the ground

Most of those on the pitch today are still getting pocket money from their parents and a lot of them won't be turning up when we are in league two.
Sat next to an old boy in the upper west who has been supporting since 1965 and he said "it doesn't matter what league we end up in as long as I can get away from the missus for a few hours and watch my football I'm happy. Sad for him today as well as the Port Vale lads who came down.
