Ive been thinking along the same lines. They took the opportunity to leak it out first too see which individuals supported it and who didn't. I'm sorry to say but the likes of Annis and TLG amongst others were seen to 'show their card' and they were amongst the unwanted. 'If' their focus is about marketing then surely they would want to bin the bad history of the past and how else to do that than to piss off the people who were involved at the time. Like it or not I think the spilt is around the age brackets with more younger supporters supporting the move because they don't know any different than the Championship.

Unfortunately some will not see it and refuse to belive that the stories they have been told may not be 100% the truth.
The proof is in the pudding as they say lets see what is delivered and how badly the fans are let down by this whole fiasco.

This is why anger is beginning to grow.Fans have been duped into thinking that they had no choice but to accept the rebranding.

I agree but some of us were never fooled from the start. You can see the reaction building today and this will steadily increase.Now that the pro reds no longer have the agrument of red or dead, I think the anger will increase to levels greater than when the proposals were first leaked.

Nobody knows how far VT is prepared to be pushed and any OTT demonstrations and or abuse levelled at him, could just as easily push him away, even if it was never his attention to walk away in the first place!
The money he has invested so far, is only pocket money to somebody in his position, as he earned 80 odd million pounds in Facebook shares only a couple of weeks ago and he's going to be getting a lot of income any day soon, from the world's biggest Mall that is son to open up!

Yes , I know that, but as I said, you can go too far with some people and they can just pull the plug!
VT can afford to just walk away and I don't think that you can be 100% confident that what Alan Whitely said in that respect, won't change if people go OTT!

Let him try, I am confident that we can continue without VT or even TG for that matter.

So how the feck can you stop him walking away then?
The club won't be able to survive on your 2-3 visits to the stadium every season and the 2 or 3 hot dogs you'll buy!
In fact I'll bet you even bring your own Sandwiches and drinks to the games!

Your responses are just getting more and more juvenile now. If he is prepared to walk away then let him and it really shows just hopw much interest you take because no matter how many hot dogs I buy none of the profits go to the club because its run by Compass. For heavens sake keep up will you
