    The "scab" chant. Although that's really a minority of fans rather than the club.

    There's nothing I detest, but getting away after games isn't ideal.

    1) Lack of understanding by the owners regarding the potential of the club.

    2) I didn’t like how Patrick Cryne managed the club and viewed it as ‘Little Barnsley’. We have had 14 years of stagnation and wasted years. There is no wonder and no co-incidence that we have had the best start for 15 years.

    3) Half the West Stand closed. Although I love the West Stand it’s probably time to change it.

    4) There should be corner stands similar to the one between the East Stand and Ponti.

    5) The club badge and logo is old fashioned.
    We need a new logo on similar lines to Rugby League logos.

    6) The walk back to town over the hill is torture.

    7) The fans don’t always come together when there are signs of trouble from opposing fans.

    8) The old school ground on Grove Street laying empty when it should be bought by the club - and developed as part of the West Stand.

    9) Ganaye not doing enough radio and media interviews to promote the club.

    10) Lack of staff and speed in the ticket office - very amateurish.


    Other than that everything is ok :)
    I suppose

    Agree about the West Stand. I think away fans should be allowed that empty side and home fans into the North Stand.

    Nowt. Absolutely nowt. Lots of things could be better, but the word "detest" is far too strong in my opinion.

    Yes I’d agree there.
    My list of 10 items is what I’d like to see.
    Detest doesn’t come into it.

    1) Our inability to hold on to our best players, and with a few notable exceptions, our inability to get top $ when we do sell.
    2) the behaviour of some of our away fans.

    Agreed.

    I love the club, but like a girlfriend / wife, there are always small niggles you put up with.
