Sima Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 It's clear that they give away that many free tickets that most of those that leave early don't have a) any interest and b) haven't made a financial commitment to buying the tickets which will give a degree of stubbornness.

Stal Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Just a weird thought, but do you think Ashley might invest like he has at Rangers? I just thought it's the sort of thing he'd do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 From last night's pre match thread on here :- Football / Re: Reading vs Newcastle United - 07/03/2017 @ 20:00 (No TV) « Message by BrickTop on Today at 01:55:50 AM » Would love to get tickets to an away game this season. Just one would do! Ahhh this club of ours is far too well supported. So why can't we have three different self-congratulatory threads after every match titled "Our Fans" or something equally pukey..........? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that, i know i bang on about their forum but at least i dont go on it.i wish all our "fans" would just delete their account and fuck them.you cant get a balanced view for the tribal bile they give you.they see us as nothing but turds and vice versa in the main. Sima gives as good as he gets but i wish he'd come off it and leave them to be bitter cunts.his choice of course, yes he has balanced debates but in truth they dont like him but would miss him at the same time i bet. I think the OP of the thread was on a wind up mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 The toon fans on there try to challenge their delusion about us, but it will never work. They simply predict a catastrophic set of circumstances will come to fruition,and gloat like fuck, suck each other off, ( at these made up events ) when they don't- They just move on and repeat the whole process. If we won the league , they would be having a laugh to themselves that we hadn't won the champions league. If we won everything, it would be our manager was getting poached- its just limitless fake bad news. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ElCid Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Seen the lot now on RTG about catchment area and one of our fans has put up the census which shows there is not a massive difference between the two areas for the two. How do the thick fucks respond 'oh well you have fans in Durham and Washington so they are your catchment areas' :idiot2: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Quite a lot of the mackems on RTG are like Angry Frank from Harry Enfield's Self Righteous Brothers in the way they just make up completely ridiculous scenarios and talk about them like they're remotely likely to happen "And, if in a quiet moment, Davidson would take me to one side, and say 'I've always admired you as a man, Frank', before saying 'How about it duckie', and then his wardrobe falls open to reveal his boyfriend Barrymore!!??!

Wallsendmag Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Looks like they're already planning for the Championship. They've announced next year's season ticket prices and they start from £25! That's £25 for a season ticket, not 1 match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 If Moyes does keep them up I would personally consider that an achievement given how poor their squad is and how damaged they are as a club in ways we were before Rafa, although nowhere near as bad. Short needs to sell up if he can as he clearly has no ambition or interest in the club and while they are our bitter rivals, its a sad state of affairs that a club can be so rudderless. Fans need to reclaim their clubs back somehow and the government should make it law if they can to prevent one person or entity fully owning what is essentially a fucking community centre.

Sho Time Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Looks like they're already planning for the Championship. They've announced next year's season ticket prices and they start from £25! That's £25 for a season ticket, not 1 match. Their prices aren't changing so says the Chronicle. £25 is for a childs season ticket, which is fair play IMO. I know they're hardly in a position to sell themselves to the new generation of mongo's but even still they may as well get them in now and let the knackers who pay for their season tickets try and get them into it properly, so as far as business strategy goes it makes sense. £25 is better than fuck all, which is what they'd normally get for a lot of seats due to the free tickets. I agree with slating them on the free tickets patter because it's just horrendous and shows how much of a joke they are, but they're hardly going to be charging a fortune for season tickets either given the fact that they're absolute shite and they also live in a massively under-privileged area where people there don't have much money.

I think Sima made a very valid point earlier in the thread about them having a serious problem with a huge % of their fans leaving early, as early as half time in some cases. If you've paid £35 for your ticket or £500 for your season ticket you're more than likely to stick it out through stubbornness and wanting to get a bit value for money. In their case a large number of match going fans are getting in for free and even those who pay don't pay very much so the product has been devalued to the point where it's virtually worthless so I can see where the attitude of "well I got in for nowt so I might as well spend the 2nd half/last half hour down the pub" could well prevail. If they go down and don't come straight back up they face years in the wilderness without getting a new backer who will basically bankroll the club like Ellis Short did until a couple of years ago because they just aren't capable of generating the revenue through their own means.

STM Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Considering what they have put up with over past couple of decades (yes even worse decision making than us), it's a surprise anyone turns up at all. The future down there looks incredibly bleak. It's going to take one hell of a rebuild if they go down. They have no assets, no money and fans turning their backs by the droves. It's going to take a new owner, new investment and a complete change in philosophy to turn that club around. Despite them being our enemy (and they are), I hate seeing a club dragged through the mud by feckless owners, after all we know how that feels.

Very harsh on Short that mind – he’s spent an absolute bomb on them! It’s their recruitment policy which has screwed them! He must despise Quinn for persuading him to buy them!
