THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING

Thu Jan 14, 2016 12:30 pm

As I was working late last night I listened on CCFC Player.

Given what has been going on for a considerable time I am really surprised not to to hear from the club's leadership on the future or at present lack of it - even backing Russel Slade. For those bluebirds who are long in the tooth and have to go to toilet a few times during the night this situation is not new but the loss of so many supporters saddens me. We worked so so hard, look at the days under Sam and even Malky the stadium rocking, even under Pistol Pete (can't believe i'm saying this) even though he lied we had a dream and now this. The silence from the leadership as to where we are going is deafening. Surely they must say something to their customers soon.... opps sorry fans!

Colchester :bluebird:

Can't somebody eg The Trust, The Echo, the Supporters Club get Malman and/or Choo to sit down with them and outline exactly what the Club's aims are for the current season and beyond.

Is that unreasonable?

It's obvious that Tan won't speak to anyone on the subject and that Malman and Choo are basically his puppets as is Slade but surely the paying customers of the club as we fans are known deserve to be given some information about the Club's plans for this season and beyond?

Not holding my breath though.

It is difficult for the board to have such a discussion though when , by their own admission , they don`t know what the strategy is themselves or have the power to implement it anyway if they had one. The Malaysian board members , who represent the voting majority at board meetings ,don`t even bother to turn up for them and so they are never held.

Thanks.

Not the best way for a "business" to treat it's "customers" though is it?

Don't a certain number of board meetings need to be held?

And brand loyalty will only last so long.

Tan always approached CCFC as a business pure and simple.Those who believe he is a football lover are deluded.This is another burger bar....er gone wrong, so what does he do ????

Reduce costs
Sack staff
Sack players
Sack everyone !! even Ali
Bring in a Sunday league level manager to reduce costs
Do not attend games, he has no real interest over and above making money
Pretend from day one he cares...er no
Reduce the club fan base to a squabbling shambles
The result, an a stadium akin to a Womens Intsitute Jamboree on a bank holiday
He is laughingly looking for a buyer.......????

Welcome to CCFC
