    Is that what many are saying jud. on here or your social circle ?. I'm aware some are basing it on signings. Not the fact Mladen has to be gone by the end of the early bird or even the start of the season. (No doubt I may get replies differing)
    Imo there is no way that is going to happen. (Unless he goes on his own volition) I get the impression Conor is willing to work alongside him. But has been given the green light to get some of the players in he wants, and not so much relying the spreadsheet.

    Your decision pal, who am I to contest it?

    But it’s your club. Decades of support. Such a shame.

    Seen umpteen pal whether verbal or on Facebook, really do think it boils down to that hence the obvious slump in sales! That’s not based on the postcards/emails that happens all the time that’s based on mass apathy and the club not once saying how many have been sold.

    Plenty have said it, majority won't do it.

    What it’s cheap talk and folk will actually renew ?
    8500 will probably be halved

    £50 to a charity of your choice George if we've not got more than 6k season tickets.

    We will definitely get more than 6k but it will sadly stilll be a dangerously low number for the future of the club imo

    I think we're in a sticky situation. Which is why - IMHO - the decision to keep prices incredibly low, ignore inflation and seek to balance the books elsewhere is to be applauded and supported.

    I don't think they had any realistic choice. They'd alienated so much of the fanbase that increasing prices regardless of inflation would have been commercial suicide.

    If its halved I’ll happily donate £50 to a charity of your choice!!

    It’s your decision which is fine, I respect that but to stop away cos of a bloke as DOF is daft IMO.

    What would you do if they relieved him mid way through the season?
