We are just a meal ticket to achieve the bottom line .If you have not picked up already, its about bums on seats and bottom line. If that means they become a travelling roadshow to do so, I suggest they will do it.

I think someone else said, they choose to trash the ones that are coming in seeking more bums on seats than value and empower the ones that do come in trying to seek more.


You and I both know that the Phoenix will not become a traveling circus, at least not to any major extent, because it won't work. It will be too expensive, highly disruptive to the players, and after the novelty has worn off it will not generate any greater crowds elsewhere.

Even these suits will soon see that.

But will they that really is the question,Im not convinced.Its not like this is the first threat to take games away they have made.Yet they still dont seem to get it.Yes much of what has been posted has been emotive but then again thats why you support a club.I would probably still end up buying a season ticket but wouldnt take club memebership and would probably make my protest by not buying anymore offical merchandise.I just dont get why they havnt spent time trying to engage some of their better supportors or are we not what they really want.
