80s Owl Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 18 hours ago, HoylandOwl said: One thing I will say for this 'group' are that at least they're trying to suggest things and want to try and do something, regardless of whether you/I think that things such as this black bagging is a good one or not. It's at least a show of movement towards a protest of sorts. While, social media is a place where opinions are shared, but personally speaking, I don't think until the wider media pick up on it, and start speaking to those involved to get a wider sense of their 'angst' towards DC and the running of the club, spreading their thoughts to a much bigger and widespread audience of, what their intentions and their reasoning for it, then I don't think it'll gather much more traction than it currently has. I still truly wonder how many people actually WANT to get involved with something like this and how many are that incensed by DC's actions. Personally I just want to watch the footy, and come home these days, maybe that could potentially be making me think its protests are not as supported across the fanbase as some are suggesting.. But who knows! It's funny Terry that apart from some "McGee Out" chants after he refused to invest on promotion to the old 1st Division I can't remember being too bothered or knowing much about the board at SWFC when I first started following them, now it/they get talked about more than the footy at times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just symptomatic of the current times when we hear about everything/anything that happens around football in general with the advent of Sky Sports News / Social media etc etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrolMong Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 I semi understand Dooms article. We’ve gambled on a lot of young players from abroad who may or may not be a success. If you look at the stats, we have brought 12 in. Only Hendrick and Buckley have ‘true’ Championship pedigree. Reece James and Bambo Diaby have some Championship experience but we’re not regulars at that level. We have signed Bernard who’s never played higher than league one, and then the rest are from abroad. If we can get 6 of the 12 who have come in to be a success at this level, that would be a positive outcome (by success, I mean improve us). As it stands now, and based on the limited games, the keeper, Bernard and Delgado look like they are up to it. Bambo Diaby may turn out decent. What I really want is the attacking players to turn out to work. So, Gassama and Musaba to be a success. They may take time, but given game time, we’ll know after 10 games (playing), whether they are up to it, and to be a success, I mean goals and assists when they play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand corrected, I didn’t realise Hull were in the Champ when he played for them. So, he falls in the same category as Diaby and James. For the record, I think he is a good player.

They should write articles in an impartial manner, certainly not skew opinions. I mean I recall a comment on here. I am sort of trusted to speak a degree of sense on the finances. So forgot who it was, but they rightly suggested I should be extra diligent what I say and how I say it on that topic. And local journalists should follow the same principles in my view. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
