Time to take our club back !!!!

Tue May 24, 2011 8:21 pm

This is our club , and I don't want Dave jones at it any longer !!!
If he stays we will be going down and be back to the Lower leagues !!
We are so close to the promise land we can't give up !
We need to act like fans and take our club back from
Him !!
He wont Leave unless he paid off ! Then let us as fans pay him off!!! I'm sure we can raise half the money and then TG AND VT. Pay the other half !
Maybe be a mad idea , but what eles can we do ???

We can't even raise money quickly for the Fred Keenor appeal mate.

Dread to think how long it would take to raise 300 grand.

Good idea though. :ayatollah: ;) :ayatollah:

I can get a gun, and I know some loyalists who make can put bombs in envelopes.

How about organising a march?? Get DJ out march...
This would surely show the powers above the true feeling from the majority of the faithful
This of course, if nothing happens over the next few days :ayatollah:

I posted this last week and will do it again :roll:

This club should look to have someone from this forum,or others :roll: - to give a fans view of things.

Most would say that SAM could / would see the ways the fans think and want to see things, but for me there are many a person who would do us proud,in the way things are run at our club.

Just look at what SCHALKE - Have done this season with fans on board in meetings.

Fan presence on a clubs board is crucial to keep fans onside and stop widening the divide that is cutting through British football.

It only takes 1 or 2 people to be simply consulted to make a huge change and would be a massive help to us at this present time.

A local voice, an honest opinion, someone who has been through thick and thin whilst never budging away from the loyal fan they are, these are the type of people that also need to have a say when clubs make decisions not advisors and the money men.

Had our fans been consulted on a more regular and formal basis this season I'm sure a lot of things would have gone down differently. The club needs to look at how it's actions are viewed from the eyes of its fans, and if they did, would benefit from years to come.

Scouting issues, the clubs transfer policy, marketing, merchandising, customer service.... all are areas in which fans knowledge can more than rival those of decision makers.

Not sure fans shld be part of the decision making process tbh, for the following reasons:
1. generally speaking we're not qualified
2. we dont know all that happens behind the scenes
3 it's supposed to be fun not work
4. you can't run a business "by commitee".
5. surely borley is a fan anyway.

I get that as fans we feel a bit alienated righ now, and would be nice to feel more appreciated/involved, buy i dont think this is the way forward

6. It's a business run by business people who are (rightly or wrongly) out to make money. It's up to them who they employ and it's their own livelihood they risk when making decisions. A fan, or a representative of the fans, would not have those considerations to take in to account. (Hence all the barmy bring back sam posts! :lol: )

No we won't, we'll just be there or thereabouts the play offs every season. He's not a bad manager, just one tht's unable to take us that one step further. I believe we need to get rid of him, but let's hopewe don't get that bad manager that he actually isn't

This is true. I wonder what the Malaysians have planned for the club? If they are planning consolidation then, in my opinion Jones should stay.

If they're planning another assault on promotion (and are backing it with cash) then we should be looking at getting someone else in.
